Pithub::Search(3pm)

✨ NAME ✨

Pithub::Search — the Github legacy Search API, bestie 💅

Like, it's the search part of Pithub, but specifically the legacy flavor. Yes legacy. We said what we said. 🫶

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 0.01043 — she's little, she's vintage, she's doing her best 💖

🎀 METHODS 🎀

💌 email

• Okay so heads up, this API call is added for compatibility reasons only. There's no guarantee that full email searches will always be available. It's giving "we kept it around for the vibes," not "this is forever." 😭

GET /legacy/user/email/:email

Examples:

my $search = Pithub::Search->new;
my $result = $search->email(
    email => 'plu@pqpq.de',
);

🐛 issues

• Find issues by state and keyword. That's the whole assignment, no cap. ✨

GET /legacy/issues/search/:owner/:repository/:state/:keyword

Examples:

my $search = Pithub::Search->new;
my $result = $search->issues(
    user    => 'plu',
    repo    => 'Pithub',
    state   => 'open',
    keyword => 'some keyword',
);

📚 repos

• Find repositories by keyword. But bestie, listen, this legacy method does not follow the v3 pagination pattern. It returns up to 100 results per page, and you fetch more pages with the start_page parameter. Different rules, different era, iconic honestly 👑

GET /legacy/repos/search/:keyword

Examples:

my $search = Pithub::Search->new;
my $result = $search->repos(
    keyword => 'github',
    params  => {
        language   => 'Perl',
        start_page => 0,
    }
);

🫶 users

• Find users by keyword. Simple. Clean. Main character energy. 🦋

GET /legacy/user/search/:keyword

Examples:

my $search = Pithub::Search->new;
my $result = $search->users(
    keyword => 'plu',
);
