A call for a library to script github.com

Hi

I know several people that would like to script from Pharo the github API.
- for the new review tools
- for posting bugs from pharo
- for dashboard
- for moose scripting

There is also stargate and I would like to know whether there exist a library
to build on top to script github because I think that there is need for a nice lib
for that

looking for his LibC blog post.)

This doesn't cover the scope of what you listed, but as sort of a "proof of
concept" it does show a couple of ways that the GitHub API can be scripted.

GraphQL is da bomb, I would definitely recommend writing a client to access their v4 API. You may not even need it, but Squeak will have a full GraphQL parser and document validation and processing engine real soon now. It's completely stand-alone, no dependencies, and I've kept portability in mind the entire time while developing it. Hopefully it'll "just work" if dropped into Pharo. It has hundreds of tests so far, every sentence in the spec is covered, so, you'll know. Status is, after 14 months work, I'm allllmost done.. this is some of my best work ever..

Hello,

We have put a significant amount of effort on having an implementation of GraphQL for Pharo and VisualWorks. It even has a booklet.

Cheers,

Alexandre

Thanks chris.

Alexandre and Juan Pablo did an implementation of GraphQL some years ago.

May be you want to check and join effort.

I didn't mention it in my blog post, but the GraphQL API Explorer [1] is also super useful to do code completion, etc., because constructing queries is not always that intuitive.

I merely used copy/paste of the queries. It would be cool if Pharo could somehow integrate that tool.

Cool! Good to see another in the community interested in GraphQL.

I actually noticed it a few weeks ago, but I couldn't quite tell what its status was. We should compare notes. I'll email you.
