Frequently Asked Questions

Find Quick Answers

Do I need a GitHub account or API token to use this tool?

No authentication is required for extracting data from public repositories. For private repositories or higher rate limits, you would need to add a GitHub personal access token in the environment variables.

What information can I extract from a GitHub repository?

You can extract repository metadata (name, description, stars, forks), file structure with paths, file types, and optionally file contents for text-based files. The tool provides both overview and detailed file information.

Is there a limit to the repository size I can extract?

The tool can handle repositories of any size, but very large repositories may take longer to process. The GitHub API has rate limits for unauthenticated requests (60 requests per hour).

Can I extract data from private repositories?

Private repository extraction requires a GitHub personal access token with appropriate permissions. You would need to add this token to your environment variables for the tool to access private repos.

What formats can I download the extracted data in?

The extracted data can be downloaded in JSON format (structured data) or as a plain text summary. Both formats include all the repository information extracted by the tool.
