I would like to write a script in Javascript to query all open github PRs in all repos in my org. I can use this URL to do it in a browser: https://my.github.server/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+org%3Amy-org-name
.
But using octokit, I need to supply the name of the repo in which to search. It looks as if the github API also requires it, but like I said, the URL above doesn't supply a repo name and it works just fine.
The documented one also has /repos
at the beginning, which mine above does not. I can't find the one I'm using anywhere in the github API docs. If I try octokit.request( 'GET /pulls?q=...' )
as above, I get a 404.
I'm sure there's a way to list the repos and run the above search on each one, but I have dozens of repos, so that's likely to be much slower. Is there a way to do it in one request?
There is no direct way to fetch all open PRs across all repositories within an organization in a single request using GitHub's API or Octokit. The Search API can search for PRs but it doesn't support filtering by organization.
You can get a list of all repositories in the organization and use the list of repositories to get all pull requests for each repository.
Example:
const { Octokit } = require("@octokit/core");
const octokit = new Octokit({ auth: `your_auth_token` });
async function fetchAllRepos(org) {
const repos = [];
let page = 1;
while (true) {
const result = await octokit.request('GET /orgs/{org}/repos', {
org: org,
type: 'public',
per_page: 100,
page: page
});
if (result.data.length === 0) break;
repos.push(...result.data);
page++;
}
return repos;
}
async function fetchAllPRs(org) {
const repos = await fetchAllRepos(org);
const prPromises = repos.map(repo =>
octokit.request('GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls', {
owner: org,
repo: repo.name,
state: 'open'
})
);
const prResults = await Promise.all(prPromises);
const prs = prResults.flatMap(result => result.data);
return prs;
}
fetchAllPRs('my-org-name')
.then(prs => console.log(prs))
.catch(err => console.error(err));
Not sure how slow this will be in your case. I hope this helps anyway.
