Documentation | Report Bug | GitHub Docs

githubkit aims to be an easy-to-use, fully typed, and always up-to-date GitHub SDK for Python. It is inspired by octokit.

githubkit provides several features including:

  • Support both sync and async calls
  • Multiple authentication ways and OAuth flow support
  • Calling REST API and GraphQL easily
  • REST API versioning, including GHEC
  • Built-in pagination support
  • Optional data validation with Pydantic, for both webhook events and REST API responses
  • Built-in http cache (powered by Hishel for HTTPX) and auto retry
  • Lazy loading of APIs and models
  • Fully typed APIs

Installation

pip install githubkit
