How can I use the GitHub API to fetch repository data?
You can use the GitHub API by making a GET request to the endpoint https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}
. Replace {owner}
and {repo}
with the repository owner's username and the repository name.
What kind of data can I retrieve from a repository?
You can retrieve various data such as the repository's name, description, stars, forks, issues, and more.
Do I need an access token to use the API?
For public repositories, you can access the API without an access token. However, for private repositories or higher rate limits, you will need to authenticate using a personal access token.
Can you show me an example of a request using curl?
Sure! Here's an example: curl -H 'Authorization: token YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN' https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}
. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN
, {owner}
, and {repo}
accordingly.
