Microsoft PowerShell wrapper for GitHub API

PowerShellForGitHub

PowerShell wrapper for GitHub API.

This repository currently contains two modules:

• GitHubAnalytics.psm1 - for querying issues, pull requests, collaborators, contributors, and organizations
• GitHubLabels.psm1 - for operations on GitHub labels

Please scroll down to the "Examples" section for details on what operations are supported.

Installation

You can get latest release of the PowerShellForGitHub on the PowerShell Gallery

Install-Module -Name PowerShellForGitHub

Usage

1. Rename ApiTokensTemplate.psm1 to ApiTokens.psm1 and update value of $global:gitHubApiToken with GitHub token for your account

• You can obtain it from https://github.com/settings/tokens.
• If you don't provide GitHub token, you can still use this module, but you will be limited to 60 queries per hour.
• You will need to edit this file from an elevated context.

2. Import module you want to use and call it's function, e.g.

Import-Module .\GitHubAnalytics.psm1
$issues = Get-GitHubIssuesForRepository -repositoryUrl @('https://github.com/PowerShell/DscResources')

Running tests

1. Install Pester

Install-Module -Name Pester 

2. Start test pass

Go to the Tests folder and run:

Invoke-Pester

Make sure ApiTokens.psm1 exists and contains $global:gitHubApiToken with your GitHub key. Please keep in mind some tests may fail on your machine, as they test private items (e.g. secret teams) which your key won't have access to.
