In this tutorial, we'll walk through the process of creating a simple Python REST API that interacts with the GitHub API. This API will allow us to perform basic operations such as fetching information about repositories and creating new issues.
Open your terminal and create a new virtual environment:
Activate the virtual environment:
Install the requests library, which will be used to make HTTP requests:
Create a new Python script (e.g., github_api.py) and open it in your favorite text editor.
Replace "your_token", "your_username", and "your_repository" with your GitHub access token, username, and repository details.
Execute the script in your terminal:
This will fetch information about your specified GitHub repository and create a new issue.
Congratulations! You've successfully created a Python REST API that interacts with the GitHub API. This example is a starting point, and you can expand on it by adding more functionality based on your needs.
