`gh repo list` #642

I often wish I had a way of listing the repositories for an org.

👋 Thanks for the feature idea!

Do you think it might be useful to output the list of repositories in ORG/REPO format? The ORG/ part would seem repetitive, of course, but since the repository is passed around as argument to most CLI commands in ORG/REPO format, it might be useful to keep the output consistent in case somebody is going to pipe the lines to a script. 🤔

sibis · 2020-03-13T12:06:37Z

+1 for ORG/REPO format to follow the consistency.

tammersaleh · 2020-03-13T13:10:48Z

Yeah, that would be better!

sibis · 2020-03-13T15:02:42Z

@mislav I am interested in working on this issue. Can I take up this?

mislav · 2020-03-13T16:46:44Z

@sibis Not yet. We're still open for feedback about which kinds of repo filtering options will be necessary, but when we do greenlight this feature for development, it will be after our design person @ampinsk has taken a pass on this and the related set of features.

jonchurch · 2020-04-05T20:06:28Z

I came here looking for this feature.

My usecase:

I'm working with the Express project, which is fairly unique in that we have many packages spread out across three different orgs expressjs, pillarjs, jshttp.

I want to get a list of every repo in each org, so I can make filters for my GH notifications. I typically have used other tools or the API to get these lists in the past. Specifically for the notifications filters, I'm creating a list of repos in the format expressjs/body-parser. The output format of the command is really not super important to me, since I can just alter it with sed or awk later. As long as I can get a clean list of repo names to stdout, I'd be happy.

But what I want right now is to be able to output the list of repos, sort of like:

gh repo list --org expressjs > expressjs.txt

I think we're unique in our use of multiple orgs, but an org command would make sense to me bc I think about orgs a lot as a result of this quirk of ours. I'd be happy with the above command, however.

This is an initial draf to support list command. The idea is to have a common list command for the repos, orgs etc.. - List repositories with default limit ```bash $ gh list repo // list repos of the logged in user(Defaults to 30 repos) Showing 30 of 173 repositories. bdpiparva/deb-repo-query bdpiparva/deb-repo-poller bdpiparva/ansible-gocd ... ``` - List repositories with custom limit ```bash $ gh list repo -L 10 // You can set the custom limit for the page. Showing 10 of 173 repositories. bdpiparva/deb-repo-query bdpiparva/deb-repo-poller bdpiparva/ansible-gocd ... ``` - Print raw result for scripting ```bash $ gh list repo --raw bdpiparva/deb-repo-query bdpiparva/deb-repo-poller bapiparva/ansible-gocd ... ``` - List repositories for a organization ```bash $ gh list repo --org Area51 //Output ``` **NOTE:** Related issue(s) for the PR: cli#642, cli#645 - [ ] Add support to list organization for the loggedin user ```bash $ gh list org

adimyth · 2020-09-16T09:09:32Z

Any updates on this feature?

mislav · 2020-09-16T18:59:19Z

@adimyth No, but you can query the list of repositories using gh api. Here's an example alias you can set up:

# ~/.config/gh/config.yml
aliases:
    repos: |
        !gh api --paginate graphql -f owner="$1" -f query='
          query($owner: String!, $per_page: Int = 100, $endCursor: String) {
            repositoryOwner(login: $owner) {
              repositories(first: $per_page, after: $endCursor, ownerAffiliations: OWNER) {
                nodes { nameWithOwner }
                pageInfo { hasNextPage endCursor }
              }
            }
          }
        ' | jq -r '.data.repositoryOwner.repositories.nodes[].nameWithOwner' | sort

Usage:

$ gh repos cli

Kilo-Loco · 2020-09-17T20:12:44Z

The solution provided by @mislav works great but you should be aware of two things:

You may want to use !gh instead of !hub if you dont have hub as an alias for the GitHub CLI
jq needs to be installed on your machine which you can find here: https://stedolan.github.io/jq/

mislav · 2020-09-18T11:39:08Z

@Kilo-Loco Haha whoops 🙈

wimglenn · 2020-10-05T18:38:22Z

I'd also like the option to filter on/without forks

Artofaj · 2020-11-10T18:05:34Z

Came here looking for exactly this feature. The workaround is great, but having it implemented by default would be way nicer!

ampinsk · 2020-11-25T19:00:57Z

Hey everyone, playing with some ideas for how this command could display

This is pretty minimal on info, is there any other information that would be important to see from this view? Is separating out Pinned repos helpful or just noise?

notquiteamonad · 2020-11-26T12:51:30Z

That list looks good to me - minimal is appealing in a CLI imo.

Pins are probably good to separate on larger orgs but not so important for smaller ones. Perhaps one unbroken list with an asterisk for pins and keeping them at the top of the list or something similar would please both sides?

pletnes · 2020-12-01T11:56:02Z

@ampinsk I'd like something that's "one line one record" - i.e. will fit into grep/awk/...

$ gh repo list orgname

orgname/foo-web
orgname/bar-desktop
orgname/ham-spam-eggs

Now I can do

$ gh repo list orgname | grep -i web
orgname/foo-web

abacao · 2020-12-15T11:33:22Z

Can we have a way to search specific topics also?

gh repo list orgname --topic my_search_topic
