Octokit.swift
Authentication
Octokit supports both, Github and Github Enterprise. Authentication is handled using Configurations.
There are two types of Configurations, TokenConfiguration and OAuthConfiguration.
TokenConfiguration
TokenConfiguration is used if you are using Access Token based Authentication (e.g. the user
offered you an access token he generated on the website) or if you got an Access Token through
the OAuth Flow
You can initialize a new config for github.com as follows:
let config = TokenConfiguration(token: "12345")or for Github Enterprise
let config = TokenConfiguration("12345", url: "https://github.example.com/api/v3/")After you got your token you can use it with Octokit
Octokit(config).me() { response in
switch response {
case .success(let user):
print(user.login)
case .failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}OAuthConfiguration
OAuthConfiguration is meant to be used, if you don't have an access token already and the
user has to login to your application. This also handles the OAuth flow.
You can authenticate an user for github.com as follows:
let config = OAuthConfiguration(token: "<Your Client ID>", secret: "<Your Client secret>", scopes: ["repo", "read:org"])
let url = config.authenticate()or for Github Enterprise
let config = OAuthConfiguration("https://github.example.com/api/v3/", webURL: "https://github.example.com/", token: "<Your Client ID>", secret: "<Your Client secret>", scopes: ["repo", "read:org"])After you got your config you can authenticate the user:
// AppDelegate.swift
config.authenticate()
func application(application: UIApplication, openURL url: NSURL, sourceApplication: String?, annotation: AnyObject?) -> Bool {
config.handleOpenURL(url) { config in
self.loadCurrentUser(config) // purely optional of course
}
return false
}
func loadCurrentUser(config: TokenConfiguration) {
Octokit(config).me() { response in
switch response {
case .success(let user):
print(user.login)
case .failure(let error):
print(error)
}
}
}Please note that you will be given a TokenConfiguration back from the OAuth flow.
You have to store the accessToken yourself. If you want to make further requests it is not
necessary to do the OAuth Flow again. You can just use a TokenConfiguration.
let token = // get your token from your keychain, user defaults (not recommended) etc.
let config = TokenConfiguration(token)
Octokit(config).user("octocat") { response in
switch response {
case .success(let user):
print("User login: \(user.login!)")
case .failure(let error):
print("Error: \(error)")
}
}

}
}Follower and Following

}Get followers of authenticated user
Octokit().myFollowers() { response in
switch response {
case .success(let users):
// do something with the users
case .failure(let error):
// handle any errors
}
}Get following of some user
let username = "username"
Octokit().following(username) { response in
switch response {
case .success(let users):
// do something with the users
case .failure(let error):

Octokit(config).myIssues() { response in
switch response {

case .failure:
// handle any errors
}
}Get a single issue
let (owner, repo, number) = ("owner", "repo", 1347) // replace with actual owner, repo name, and issue number
Octokit(config).issue(owner, repository: repo, number: number) { response in
switch response {
case .success(let issue):
// do something with the issue
case .failure:
// handle any errors
}
}Open a new issue
Octokit(config).postIssue("owner", repository: "repo", title: "Found a bug", body: "I'm having a problem with this.", assignee: "octocat") { response in
switch response {
case .success(let issue):
// do something with the issue
case .failure:
// handle any errors
