Github
------
[](https://travis-ci.org/phadej/github)
[][hackage]
The Github API v3 for Haskell.
Some functions are missing; these are functions where the Github API did
not work as expected. The full Github API is in beta and constantly
improving.
Installation
============
In your project's cabal file:
```cabal
-- Packages needed in order to build this package.
Build-depends: github
```
Or from the command line:
```sh
cabal install github
```
Example Usage
=============
See the samples in the
[samples/](https://github.com/fpco/github/tree/master/samples) directory.
Note: some samples might be outdated.
Documentation
=============
For details see the reference [documentation on Hackage][hackage].
Each module lines up with the hierarchy of
[documentation from the Github API](http://developer.github.com/v3/).
Request functions (ending with `R`) construct a data type which can be executed
in `IO` by `executeRequest` functions. They are all listed in the root `GitHub`
module.
IO functions produce an `IO (Either Error a)`, where `a` is the actual thing
you want. You must call the function using IO goodness, then dispatch on the
possible error message. Here's an example from the samples:
Many function have samples under
[`samples/`](https://github.com/phadej/github/tree/master/samples) directory.
```hs
{-# LANGUAGE NoImplicitPrelude #-}
{-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-}
import Prelude.Compat
import Data.Text (Text, pack)
import Data.Text.IO as T (putStrLn)
import Data.Monoid ((<>))
import GitHub (github')
import qualified GitHub
main :: IO ()
main = do
possibleUsers <- github' GitHub.usersFollowingR "phadej"
T.putStrLn $ either (("Error: " <>) . pack . show)
(foldMap ((<> "\n") . formatUser))
possibleUsers
formatUser :: GitHub.SimpleUser -> Text
formatUser = GitHub.untagName . GitHub.simpleUserLogin
```
Test setup
==========
To run integration part of tests, you'll need [github access token](https://github.com/settings/tokens/new)
Token is needed, because unauthorised access is highly limited.
It's enough to add only basic read access for public information.
With `travis encrypt --org --repo yournick/github "GITHUB_TOKEN=yourtoken"` command you get a secret,
you can use in your travis setup to run the test-suite there.
