go-github is a Go client library for accessing the GitHub API v3. Currently, go-github requires Go version 1.13 or greater. go-github tracks Go's version support policy. We do our best not to break older versions of Go if we don't have to, but due to tooling constraints, we don't always test older versions. If you're interested in using the GraphQL API v4, the recommended library is shurcooL/githubv4. go-github is compatible with modern Go releases in module mode. Resolve and add the package to the current development module, along with its dependencies. Alternatively the same can be achieved if you use import in a package. Construct a new GitHub client, then use the various services on the client to access different parts of the GitHub API. Some API methods have optional parameters that can be passed. Using the context package, one can easily pass cancelation signals and deadlines to various services of the client for handling a request.

Features

  • The go-github library does not directly handle authentication
