Github
Overview
The GitHub source supports both Full Refresh and Incremental syncs. You can choose if this connector will copy only the new or updated data, or all rows in the tables and columns you set up for replication, every time a sync is run.
This Github source wraps the Singer Github Tap.
Output schema
Several output streams are available from this source (commits, issues, pull_requests, etc.) For a comprehensive output schema look at the Singer tap schema files.
Features
| Feature | Supported? |
|---|---|
| Full Refresh Sync | Yes |
| Incremental - Append Sync | yes |
| Replicate Incremental Deletes | No |
| SSL connection | Yes |
Performance considerations
The Github connector should not run into Github API limitations under normal usage. Please create an issue if you see any rate limit issues that are not automatically retried successfully.
