gitear

The goal of gitear is to request your self-hosted Git service data and import it to R in a tidy data frame.

gitear is a package that communicates with the gitea API.

Installation

You can install the development version from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("ixpantia/gitear")

Usage

First go to your gitea self hosted service and grab your API Token. Then you should be able to the following:

# Credentials

api_token <- "gfdsgfd8ba18a866bsdfgsdfgs3a2dc9303453b0c92dcfb19"
url_ixpantia <- "https://prueba.com"

# Example function use

issues <- get_issues(base_url = url_ixpantia,
                     api_key = api_token,
                     owner = "empresa",
                     repo = "repo_prueba")

Environmental variables:

In order to work with environmental variables to make your scripts safer from somebody getting your credentials, you can follow the next workflow:

1. Create an .Renviron file with your credentials
2. Restart your R session
3. Store your credentials in an object for using it in your script

Your script could look something like this:

# Storing credentials in an object

example_key <- Sys.getenv("example_key")
example_url <- Sys.getenv("example_url")

# Using a function from gitear

issues <- get_issues(base_url = example_url,
                     api_key = example_key,
                     owner = "empresa",
                     repo = "repo_prueba")
