Simple Ruby wrapper for the GitHub v2 API.

For convenience, methods that require a repo argument may be passed in any of the following forms
- "pengwynn/linked"
- {:username => 'pengwynn', :name => 'linkedin'}
- {:username => 'pengwynn', :repo => 'linkedin'}
- instance of Repo
Octopussy.repo("pengwynn/linkedin")
=> <#Hashie::Mash description="Ruby wrapper for the LinkedIn API" fork=false forks=1 homepage="http://bit.ly/ruby-linkedin" name="linkedin" open_issues=2 owner="pengwynn" private=false url="http://github.com/pengwynn/linkedin" watchers=36>
Some methods require authentication so you'll need to pass a login and an api_token. You can find your GitHub API token on your account page
client = Octopussy::Client.new(:login => 'pengwynn', :token => 'OU812')
client.follow!('adamstac')
Read the full docs or check out the examples
- Feed parsing
- More examples
- Fork the project.
- Make your feature addition or bug fix.
- Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
- Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
- Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
Octopussy is inspired by Octopi and aims to be a lightweight, less active-resourcey alternative.
