fetch-gists

Fetch all of your gists from GitHub.

fetch-gists will handle all of the API calls needed to retrieve all of your gists from GitHub. This includes navigating the paginated results.

Prerequisites

• GitHub account (duh!)
• GitHub access token with the gist scope enabled

Installation

npm install --save fetch-gists

Usage

const fetchGists = require('fetch-gists')

const accessToken = '<your-github-access-token>'

try {
  const gists = await fetchGists(accessToken)

  // gists successfully retrieved
} catch (err) {
  // something went wrong
}

fetchGists will return a promise. The promise will resolve once all gists for the account have been retrieved. Any errors that occur during the retrieval of the gists will cause the promise to reject.

fetch-gists's Issues

Fetch gists for specified username

It could be useful to be able to fetch another users public gists:

fetchGists(accessToken, 'mike182uk')
  .then(function(gists) {
    // ...
  });

Fetch gist content

It could be useful to retrieve the gist content when fetching the gists (from the raw_url property of the file in the gist). This would reduce the need to manually make an extra http request to get the gist content.

var fetchGistContent = true;

fetchGists(accessToken, fetchGistContent)
  .then(function(gists) {
    // gists should have an extra parameter containing the content of the gist
  });
