The script pulls.py gets pull request data from the GitHub API and saves it to a local JSON file. The JSON file maps pull request numbers to the files in the repo that the pull request edited.

• Python 3
• A functional GitHub personal access token with the following scopes:

Checkout this repo, cd to its root, then run the following terminal commands:

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage of the script is as follows:

python pulls.py <token> <repo_name> [--months <months>]

• <token> is your GitHub personal access token.
• <repo_name> is the full name of the repo you would like to extract e.g. kiteco/pypulls.
• You can optionally specifiy a number of <months> to extract data for. By default, this script will extract the previous 12 months.

This script extracts PR's and the files that were changed in the PR's and saves it in a JSON object:

{
  "1": [
    "file/changed/in/pr/1"
  ],
  "2": [
    "file/changed/in/pr/2",
    "another/file/changed/in/pr/2",
  ]
}

On macOS and Linux, this data is stored at ~/.kite/github/repo/name/pulls.json. On Windows it is stored at %USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\Kite\github\repo\name\pulls.json.
