# GitHub Data

Quickly populate mocks with real data from GitHub!

### Usage

To populate data from GitHub, layers need to describe what data they should render.

You can do this by naming your layers with the following syntax:

`__{fieldname}`, e.g. `__bio`, or `__avatar_url`

For nested values, use dot syntax:

`__owner.avatar_url`

For example field names, see the following examples:

- user: https://api.github.com/users/brianlovin

- org: https://api.github.com/orgs/github

- repo: https://api.github.com/repos/withspectrum/spectrum

- issues: https://api.github.com/repos/withspectrum/spectrum/issues

- pull requests: https://api.github.com/repos/withspectrum/spectrum/pulls
