sdushantha / gitdir Goto Github PK

Hey,

I want to use this package without a command-line interface. I want to use it in the python program.
Is there a way to do that?

hi
I followed the instructions as i found the concept interesting

when installed, whether with pip or pip3 as a none root account.

By default, 'file' is written in the MIFF image format.  To
specify a particular image format, precede the filename with an image
format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify the image type as
the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps).  Specify 'file' as '-' for
standard input or output.
import: delegate library support not built-in '' (X11) @ error/import.c/ImportImageCommand/1297.
/Users/abuxton/src/gitdir/gitdir.py: line 10: ERASE_LINE: command not found
/Users/abuxton/src/gitdir/gitdir.py: line 13: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/Users/abuxton/src/gitdir/gitdir.py: line 13: `def create_url(url):'

is output on running the command, also worth documenting ./gitdir.py the file will need to be executable.

the reson for the output is running without python3, osx default is not yet 3. pyenv or some such can be used to update system python default.

The link to directory that I want to download: link

env: ubuntu 16.04

Given a repository or directory, only download files within that match a regex specification

It would be nice if someone could test this out on WIndows and see if everything works perfectly, so that I can add to the README that gitdir supports Windows.

Can you add the feature to call the script from the bash without the need to clone the repo.

When trying to download all files from a nested dir, i want to output just the files to a single directory. However, it seems the flatten option just overrides the output directory and will just go to the current folder no matter what.

Here is the command I used:
python -m gitdir https://github.com/standardnotes/app/tree/main/packages/components/dist/zips -d zips -f

Hi,

I tried using to download a folder as below and getting 403 Forbidden error. It is a public repository. Please clarify what are the other pre-requisite to run this.

Windows support is enabled if #10 gets merged. On my machine color code does not work on Windows terminal. The output I get:

Is the possibility of using the library via code coming soon?

I have access to my students's private repos, and i usually need to download specific folders of their repos. This tool seems great, but it apparently does not work with private repos (i do have access though).

i.e. https://github.com/sdushantha/gitdir/blob/master/gitdir.py.

As it stands, gitdir will fail if the branch path does not start in tree. It looks like this only happens (at least on Github) with the default repo branch.

Take a look at this

Just a reminder the package in the PyPi :)

I keep getting this error from any repository url.

The given url is a complete repository. Use 'git clone' to download the repository

I don't know python well, I just deal with it simply. You compare it.

I'm trying to download a folder from github into a local directory. This is the code i'm running on command line:

gitdir --output_dir C:\Users\HP\Documents\datafolder https://github.com/Abba00/ImageDatasets/tree/main/SmallDataset

The command creates the "datafolder" directory but still downloads the github folder in it's own directory which isn't the desired result.
Please could you offer any help on this? It would be highly appreciated.

When gitdir url, the following error occurs. Any ideas?

ConnectionRefusedError: [Errno 61] Connection refused
...
gitdir/gitdir.py", line 99, in download
    urllib.request.urlretrieve(file_url, path)

Thanks for this tool! I accidentally overwrote some of my files earlier, and I think this is a preventable mistake.

You can reproduce the problem with:

$ cd /tmp

$ gitdir https://github.com/sdushantha/gitdir/tree/master/gitdir
Downloaded: __init__.py
Downloaded: __main__.py
Downloaded: gitdir.py
✔ Download complete

$ echo "will be deleted" > gitdir/__main__.py

$ gitdir https://github.com/sdushantha/gitdir/tree/master/gitdir
Downloaded: __init__.py
Downloaded: __main__.py
Downloaded: gitdir.py
✔ Download complete

$ head gitdir/__main__.py
from .gitdir import main

main()

I'd propose adding a prompt to confirm, and a --force,-f flag

When trying to download a folder with many files, the github rate limit is reached too fast. Is it possible to download a folder in one request (zip file?) instead of requesting each files/folders in it?
