Functions

func DoAuthRequest

func DoAuthRequest(method, url, mime, token string, headers map[string]string, body io.Reader) (*http.Response, error)

DoAuthRequest ...

TODO: This function is amazingly ugly (separate headers, token, no API URL constructions, et cetera).

func GetFileSize

func GetFileSize(f *os.File) (int64, error)

Types

type Client

type Client struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Client collects a few options that can be set when contacting the GitHub API, such as authorization tokens. Methods called on Client will supply these options when calling the API.

func NewClient

func NewClient(username, token string, client *rest.Client) Client

NewClient creates a new Client for use with the Github API.

func (Client) Get

func (c Client) Get(uri string, v interface{}) error

Get fetches uri (relative URL) from the GitHub API and unmarshals the response into v. It takes care of pagination transparantly.

func (Client) NewRequest

func (c Client) NewRequest(method, uri string, body io.Reader) (*http.Request, error)

func (Client) SetBaseURL

func (c Client) SetBaseURL(baseurl string)

SetBaseURL updates the client's base URL, if baseurl is a non-empty value.
