Github GraphQL - Get all file contents in repository

get-all-files.gql

# Provide $query as a variable. 
# The query is the same as you would enter into the search field e.g. "org:johndevs in:name feedreader"

query GetFilesQuery($branch: GitObjectID, $query: String!) {
 search(first: 1, type: REPOSITORY, query: $query) {
    edges {
      node {
        ... on Repository {
          object(expression: "master:", oid: $branch) {
            ... on Tree {
              entries {
                name
                object {
                  ... on Blob {
                    text
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Thanks! I needed something similar to get all the files in a repo and this was most useful.

I linked back here :) https://gist.github.com/MichaelCurrin/6777b91e6374cdb5662b64b8249070ea

Thank you for this gist.

The title is a little misleading though. This query only gets the root level files, you don't get files that are deeper inside directories.

To query files in a specific directory change "master:" with "master: folder/with/some/subfolders"

I can't find anything suitable like master: *.

But I did find a way to get an extra level down using nesting in my query.

    object(expression: "master:") {
      ... on Tree {
        entries {
          name
  
          object {
            ... on Tree {
              entries {
                name
              }
            }
       }

Don't use master: but HEAD:

Not every repo has master: as the default branch

How would one grab the updated date or committedDate for each of these TreeEntries?

I tried using Commit instead of Blob and that didn't work. Got all empty objects. {}

              object {
                  ... on Commit {
                    committedDate
                    authoredDate
                  }
                }

I couldn't figure it out either. Put a stackoverflow question on it:
