Working with APIs

Instructions

This lab builds on the Rails Github API lab. You're provided with code from that lab.

1. Create a new model GithubRepo in app/models/github_repo.rb. Since you're not storing GithubRepo in a database, this class does not need to inherit from Active Record. Create the file manually – using rails g model will automatically inherit from Active Record and create a migration. Build out the GithubRepo class to pass the model tests.

2. Move authentication from your controller to your service objects.

3. Implement the #initialize method for your GithubService objects.

4. Move the rest of your API calls into the GithubService object. Analyze the test requirements, and get the application working.
