octokit-from-auth v0.3.0

Usage

npm i octokit-from-auth

Two functions are exported by the octokit-from-auth package. Both are asynchronous and take in the same constructor parameters as the Octokit class:

• octokitFromAuth: rejects if an auth token isn't provided and can't be resolved by get-github-auth-token
• octokitFromAuthSafe: resolves an Octokit with no authentication if an auth token isn't provided and can't be resolved by get-github-auth-token

import { octokitFromAuth } from "octokit-from-auth";

// auth token used:
// process.env.GH_TOKEN ?? (await $`gh auth token`)
const octokit = await octokitFromAuth();

The Octokit's auth is retrieved with get-github-auth-token, which defaults to process.env.GH_TOKEN, or failing that, gh auth token. If neither is available then an auth token must be provided as an option:

import { octokitFromAuth } from "octokit-from-auth";

// auth token used:
// "gho_..."
const octokit = await octokitFromAuth({ auth: "gho_..." });
