I am trying to get all my repositories using the Github v4 API, but I can't find any query named repositories. I found a similar way to do so like this:
export const query = gql`
query repositories() {
search(query: "user:userName", type: REPOSITORY, first: 50) {
repositoryCount
edges {
node {
... on Repository {
name
}
}
}
}
}
But this is not what I want because I would have to provide the username which I should get through another query (and I do not want to type it by myself)
Is there a way to get all my repositories by only using one query? I think it should be easy enough, but I can't find the way.
I found the query:
export const query = gql`
query repositories {
viewer {
login
repositories(first: 30) {
edges {
node {
name
}
}
}
}
}
There are different ways to achieve this. You can define parameter in the query and then pass them. In the example below set usersName to your username and first to 50 or whatsoever required, keep in mind there is a limitation for first on GitHub API (value must be between 1 to 100 inclusive) which you can find here.
In this example if userName does not match any entry then an error is returned.
export const query = gql`
query repositories ($userName: String!, $first: Int){
user(login: $userName) {
repositories(first: $first) {
nodes {
name
}
}
}
}
`;
You can use search as in your example and pass variables to the query. However, this way the query will return repositories from users those their names or usernames match or include substring of provided searchText. This query will not return an error if there in no match with searchText.
export const query = gql`
query ($searchText: String!) {
search(query: $searchText, type: USER, first: 1) {
nodes {
... on User {
repositories(first: 50) {
nodes {
name
}
}
}
}
}
}
`;
If you are only interested in your own repository then your own answer can be used as well.

With Github's GraphQL API I recently found "Github API: Getting topics of a Github repository" that mentions you can get a count of topics:
{
repository(owner: "twbs", name: "bootstrap") {
repositoryTopics(first: 10) {
edges {
node {
topic {
name
}
}
}
}
}
}
but in the docs and in my search I'm not finding how I can query repositories that do not contain the topic template, example:
query ($github_org: String!, $repo_count: Int!) {
organization(login: $github_org) {
repositories(first: $repo_count, privacy: PUBLIC, isFork: false) {
nodes {
id
name
openGraphImageUrl
createdAt
stargazerCount
url
description
repositoryTopics(first: 10, after: "template") {
edges {
node {
id
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
is the correct implementation to use after? In Github's GraphQL API how to exclude a repository if it contains a certain topic?
My understanding is that with the organization query you cannot do that kind of repository filtering.
Instead, you can use the search query with something like this:
query ($repo_count: Int!) {
search (first: $repo_count,
type: REPOSITORY,
query: "org:my-organization topic:my-topic") {
nodes {
... on Repository {
name
}
}
}
}
The above query searches for all repositories within a given organization that have a given topic.
But you were looking for the repositories without a topic, in theory according to the documentation you should be able to do that with -topic:my-topic. Unfortunately the negation on topic doesn't work, there seems to be a bug. :-(
I'm trying to fetch all private repositories from our organization. In the following graphql query it returns both internal and private repositories.
For privacy it is only possible to filter on PRIVATE and PUBLIC.
It seems there is only one field called isPrivate, nothing like isInternal as far I can see.
query organizationRepositories($owner: String!) {
organization(login:$owner) {
repositories(first: 100, privacy: PRIVATE) {
totalCount
nodes {
owner {
login
}
name
id
url
isPrivate
}
}
}
}
All results using above query show isPrivate: true, I know for a fact some of these are internal and some are private.
Is there a way to distinguish between private and internal repositories? Either by looping over the results based on some fields combo which indicates private vs internal or by querying in a different way.
You can use a search query:
query {
search(query: "org:<my-org> is:internal", type: REPOSITORY, first: 100) {
repositoryCount
nodes {
... on Repository {
name
}
}
}
}

I am trying to create a query to Github GraphQL API that receive a list of repos as a parameter, and returns the info of those repositories in a single API call, does anyone know how to do that?
Something like this (I know this doesn't work)
query myOrgRepos($repos: [String!]!) {
search(query:"""
repo in $repos
""", type: REPOSITORY, first: 100) {
repo: nodes {
... on Repository{
name
description
updatedAt
}
}
}
It took me some time to understand your comment so I will post the answer in full. The key is to use Github's advanced search “syntax” in the query string, see here for examples.
The following query will find all repositories of user “github” as well as the graphql-js repository of user “graphql”:
query {
search(query: "user:github repo:graphql/graphql-js" type: REPOSITORY first: 10) {
nodes {
... on Repository {
name
description
updatedAt
}
}
}
}
My understanding of your question is that you want to input a list of "known" repos and output information about them. In this case you can form a query of the following type.
{
nodes(ids: ["node_id_1", "node_id_2"]) {
... on Repository {
nameWithOwner
createdAt
}
}
}
Here the ids are the node_ids of the repositories you are interested in. You can obtain these by individual GraphQL calls as follows
{
repository(owner: "owner", name: "name") {
id
}
}
I want to find all users that have set their "Company" field in their Github Homepage to "Github". I see it is a defined field in the Github Docs at https://developer.github.com/v4/object/user/. However, I can't seem to search for it.
My current query on https://developer.github.com/v4/explorer/ returns no results
{
search(query: "company:Github", type: USER, first: 100) {
userCount
edges {
node {
... on User {
login
name
company
}
}
}
}
}
To search all users by the company, query on the organization. Currently, you are passing a key-value pair as a string to search for instead of value string. Try this query to get all list of employees who have set their company name Github.
{
organization(login: "github") {
email
members(first: 100) {
totalCount
nodes {
... on User {
company
login
name
isEmployee
}
}
}
}
}
See the results in the attached image:
I'm trying to use GitHub's GraphQL API to find a list of repos matching a query but limited to a specific language. However I can't find anything in the docs relating to the language filter the typical online search supports or how something like this is typically done with GraphQL.
{
search(query: "query", type: REPOSITORY, first: 10) {
repositoryCount
edges {
node {
... on Repository {
nameWithOwner
}
}
}
}
}
I'm almost guessing this isn't quite possible and I'm going to have to query for everything and filter on the client instead?
In the query parameter you can use the same format as Github search, filter language with language:LANGUAGE :
{
search(query: "language:java", type: REPOSITORY, first: 10) {
repositoryCount
edges {
node {
... on Repository {
nameWithOwner
}
}
}
}
}
