Get all file names from a Github repo through the Github API

Question

Is it possible to get all the file names from repository using the GitHub API?

I\'m currently trying to tinker this using PyGithub, but I\'m totally ok with manually

Answer 1

As Dan mentioned: github trees

See working example below

import requests

user = "grumbach"
repo = "ft_ping"

url = "https://api.github.com/repos/{}/{}/git/trees/master?recursive=1".format(user, repo)
r = requests.get(url)
res = r.json()

for file in res["tree"]:
    print(file["path"])

For the sake of simplicity I omitted error management, velociraptors are extinct anyway…
