GitHub.Actions.Octokit package

To install the GitHub.Actions.Octokit NuGet package:

<PackageReference Include="GitHub.Actions.Octokit" Version="[Version]" />

Or use the dotnet add package .NET CLI command:

dotnet add package GitHub.Actions.Octokit

GitHub.Actions.Octokit

This was modified, but borrowed from the glob/README.md.

You can use this package to access a hydrated Octokit client with authentication and a set of useful defaults for GitHub Actions.

Get the GitHubClient instance

To use the GitHubClient in your .NET project, register the services with an IServiceCollection instance by calling AddGitHubClientServices and then your consuming code can require the GitHubClient via constructor dependency injection.

using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection; using GitHub; using Actions.Octokit; using Actions.Octokit.Extensions; using var provider = new ServiceCollection() .AddGitHubClientServices() .BuildServiceProvider(); // The client relies on the value from ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} var client = provider.GetRequiredService<GitHubClient>(); // Call GitHub REST API /repos/octokit/rest.js/pulls/123 var pullRequest = client.Repos["octokit"]["rest.js"].Pulls[123].GetAsync(); Console.WriteLine(pullRequest.Title);
