PyGitHub is a Python library to access the [GitHub REST API].

This library enables you to manage [GitHub] resources such as repositories, user profiles, and organizations in your Python applications.

[GitHub REST API]: https://docs.github.com/en/rest

[GitHub]: https://github.com

## Install

```bash

pip install PyGithub

```

## Simple Demo

```python

from github import Github

# Authentication is defined via github.Auth

from github import Auth

# using an access token

auth = Auth.Token("access_token")

# First create a Github instance:

# Public Web Github

g = Github(auth=auth)

# Github Enterprise with custom hostname

g = Github(base_url="https://{hostname}/api/v3", auth=auth)

# Then play with your Github objects:

for repo in g.get_user().get_repos():

    print(repo.name)

# To close connections after use

g.close()

```
