hubcap

A dol (i.e. dict-like) interface to github

To install: pip install hubcap

Examples

Basics

The simplest facade to github data.

Interact with github like you'd interact with a dict object.

Warning: You'll need to have a github api token (google it if you don't have one; it's easy to get). You'll have to specify this token when making hubcap objects, or put it in an environmental variable under the name GITHUB_TOKEN or HUBCAP_GITHUB_TOKEN (useful since github actions doesn't allow you to have env variables starting with GITHUB).

>>> s = GitHubReader('thorwhalen')  # connnecting to a particular user/organization
>>> list(s)  # doctest: +SKIP
['agen',
 'aix',
 ...
 'viral',
 'wealth',
 'wrapt']
>>> 'a_non_existing_repository_name' in s
False
>>> 'hubcap' in s  # of course, this will be true, it's what you're using now!
True
>>> repo = s['hubcap']
>>> list(repo)
['master']
>>> branch = repo['master']
>>> list(branch)  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
['/.gitattributes',
 '/.github/',
 '/.gitignore',

hub function

The high level function hub is the simplest way to get started. It's a function that takes a path to a github resource and returns a mapping to that resource. The mapping is lazy, so it's only when you access a key that the resource is actually fetched from github.

>>> repositories = hub('thorwhalen')
>>> 'hubcap' in repositories
True
>>> hubcap_repo = repositories['hubcap']
>>>
>>> repo = hub('thorwhalen/hubcap')
>>> 'master' in repo
True
>>> master_files = repo['master']
>>>
>>> files = hub('thorwhalen/hubcap/master')
>>> '/README.md' in files
True
>>> '/hubcap/' in files
True
>>> hubcap_files = files['/hubcap/']
>>> '/hubcap/base.py' in hubcap_files
True

Access issues

>>> issues = hub('thorwhalen/hubcap/issues')
>>> 3 in issues  # there's a "number 3" issue
True
>>> issue = issues[3]
>>> issue.title
'Test Issue'
>>> issue.body
'This is just a test issue to test that hubcap can see it.\r\n'
>>> issue.comments  # meaning "number of comments"
1

Access discussions

>>> discussions = hub('thorwhalen/hubcap/discussions')  # doctest: +SKIP
>>> # get a list of discussion (keys)
>>> list(discussions)  # doctest: +SKIP
[2, ...]
>>> # the discussion 2 should be included in that list
>>> 2 in discussions  # doctest: +SKIP
True
>>> discussion = discussions[2]   # doctest: +SKIP
>>> discussion  # doctest: +SKIP
{'number': 2,
 'title': 'Root interface of hubcap',
 'body': 'Every time I need to do something with `hubcap` ...',
 'author': {'login': 'thorwhalen'},
 'createdAt': '2023-11-07T09:30:59Z',
 'updatedAt': '2023-12-05T08:25:39Z',
 'comments': [{'body': 'Further it would be nice if we ...',
   'author': 'thorwhalen',
   'replies': []}]}
>>> discussion['title']    # doctest: +SKIP
'Root interface of hubcap'

Here's a nice trick for those want to download a discussion in a nice readable format, for you, or some AI, to look through.

>>> from hubcap import create_markdown_from_jdict
>>> markdown_string = create_markdown_from_jdict(discussion)  # doctest: +SKIP
>>> print(markdown_string)  # doctest: +SKIP
# Root interface of hubcap
<BLANKLINE>
Every time I need to do something with `hubcap` I need to look up how it works again. 
<BLANKLINE>
That's negative points

GithubReader

One of the main classes is GithubReader. It's a mapping that connects to a github user or organization, and returns a mapping of repositories. The repositories are also mappings, that return mappings of branches, and so on.

>>> from hubcap import GithubReader
>>> s = GithubReader('thorwhalen')  # connnecting to a particular user/organization
>>> list(s)  # doctest: +SKIP
['agen',
 'aix',
 ...
 'viral',
 'wealth',
 'wrapt']
>>> 'a_non_existing_repository_name' in s
False
>>> 'hubcap' in s  # of course, this will be true, it's what you're using now!
True
>>> repo = s['hubcap']
>>> list(repo)
['master']
>>> branch = repo['master']
>>> list(branch)  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
['/.gitattributes', '/.github/', '/.gitignore', '/LICENSE',
'/README.md', '/docsrc/', '/hubcap/', '/misc/', '/setup.cfg', '/setup.py']
>>> content = branch['/setup.cfg']
>>> print(content[:32].decode())
[metadata]
name = hubcap
version

>>> from hubcap import get_repository_info
>>> info = get_repository_info('thorwhalen/hubcap')
>>> list(info)  # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
['name', 'full_name', 'description', 'stargazers_count',
'forks_count', 'watchers_count', 'html_url', 'last_commit_date']
>>> info['name']
'hubcap'
>>> info['html_url']
'https://github.com/thorwhalen/hubcap'
>>> info['stargazers_count'] >= 1
True

You also have other useful objects, like Issues, IssueComments, Discussions, etc.

Cached Repository Artifacts

Hubcap provides a convenient caching mechanism for repository artifacts like info, discussions, and issues. This allows you to work with GitHub data locally without repeatedly fetching from the API.

Using local_repo_artifacts

The local_repo_artifacts object provides mapping interfaces to cached repository data:

from hubcap import local_repo_artifacts

# Access cached repository info
info = local_repo_artifacts.info['thorwhalen/hubcap']
print(info['name'])  # 'hubcap'
print(info['stargazers_count'])  # Number of stars

# Access cached discussions
discussions = local_repo_artifacts.discussions['thorwhalen/hubcap']
for discussion_number in discussions:
    discussion = discussions[discussion_number]
    print(f"Discussion {discussion_number}: {discussion['title']}")

# Access cached issues  
issues = local_repo_artifacts.issues['thorwhalen/hubcap']
for issue_number in issues:
    issue = issues[issue_number]
    print(f"Issue {issue_number}: {issue.title}")

Controlling cache behavior

You can control whether to use cached data or fetch fresh data:

from hubcap import LocalRepoArtifacts

# Use cached data (default)
cached_artifacts = LocalRepoArtifacts(refresh=False)
info = cached_artifacts.info['thorwhalen/hubcap']  # Uses cache if available

# Always fetch fresh data and update cache
fresh_artifacts = LocalRepoArtifacts(refresh=True)
info = fresh_artifacts.info['thorwhalen/hubcap']  # Always fetches from GitHub

Direct caching with Discussions and Issues

You can also enable caching directly when creating Discussions or Issues objects:

from hubcap import Discussions, Issues

# Enable caching for discussions
discussions = Discussions('thorwhalen/hubcap', cache=True, refresh=False)
discussion_2 = discussions[2]  # Cached after first access

# Enable caching for issues
issues = Issues('thorwhalen/hubcap', cache=True, refresh=True)
issue_4 = issues[4]  # Always fetches fresh and updates cache

Cache location

The cache is stored in your system's application data directory:

• On Linux/Mac: ~/.local/share/hubcap/repos/{org}/{repo}/
• On Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\hubcap\repos\{org}\{repo}\

Each artifact type has its own subdirectory:

• Info: info.json (single file per repo)
• Discussions: discussions/{number}.json (one file per discussion)
• Issues: issues/{number}.json (one file per issue)

You can customize the cache location with the HUBCAP_DATA_FOLDER environment variable.

Recipes

Clone to temp folder and get store (mapping) of files

from hubcap import git_clone, git_wiki_clone
from dol import TextFiles, filt_iter, Pipe

repo_py_files = Pipe(
    git_clone, TextFiles, filt_iter(filt=lambda x: x.endswith('.py'))
)
repo_wiki_files = Pipe(git_wiki_clone, TextFiles)

py_files = repo_py_files('i2mint/dol')
len(py_files)
# 37

wiki_files = repo_wiki_files('i2mint/dol')
list(wiki_files)
# ['Recipes.md',

#  'Home.md',
#  'Mapping-Views.md']
