Download a github repository to a folder using the .tar.gz bundle
$ npm install gethub
The following command downloads gethub at the master tag into the gethub folder
$ gethub ForbesLindesay/gethub
var join = require('path').join;
var download = require('gethub');
download('ForbesLindesay', 'gethub', 'master', join(__dirname, 'gethub'), function (err) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log('downloaded ForbesLindesay/gethub@master into: ' + join(__dirname, 'gethub'));
});If you omit the callback, a promise is returned.
var join = require('path').join;
var download = require('gethub');
download('ForbesLindesay', 'gethub', 'master', join(__dirname, 'gethub'))
.then(function (err) {
console.log('downloaded into: ' + join(__dirname, 'gethub'));
}, function (err) {
console.warn(err.stack);
});MIT
