Overview of GitHub#

The GitHub API is a powerful gateway to interaction with GitHub's vast web of data and services, offering a suite of endpoints to manipulate and retrieve information on repositories, pull requests, issues, and more. Harnessing this API on Pipedream, you can orchestrate automated workflows that respond to events in real-time, manage repository data, streamline collaborative processes, and connect GitHub with other services for a more integrated development lifecycle.

Connect GitHub#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    github: {
      type: "app",
      app: "github",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://api.github.com/user`,
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${this.github.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
        "X-GitHub-Api-Version": `2022-11-28`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Python#

Develop, run and deploy your Python code in Pipedream workflows. Integrate seamlessly between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and manipulate files within a workflow.

This includes installing PyPI packages, within your code without having to manage a requirements.txt file or running pip.

Below is an example of using Python to access data from the trigger of the workflow, and sharing it with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Python#

def handler(pd: "pipedream"):
  # Reference data from previous steps
  print(pd.steps["trigger"]["context"]["id"])
  # Return data for use in future steps
  return {"foo": {"test":True}}
