I am trying to see, if GitHub API's are available to see contents of repository at a specific commit id level.
Example: I am able to see an output from the below endpoint, where output is provided in JSON. But, this output if from master/main and shows content from the last commit.
Repo URL = https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
URL: https://api.github.com/repos/kubernetes/kubernetes/git/trees/master?recursive=1
Output: Reduced content
{
"sha": "4916b6cd7486e2e0dd6ce5417ae4e6842356954a",
"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/kubernetes/kubernetes/git/trees/4916b6cd7486e2e0dd6ce5417ae4e6842356954a",
"tree": [
{
"path": ".generated_files",
"mode": "100644",
"type": "blob",
"sha": "4e417ab3d2552386cf373e7d41dbdedd7dc5854c",
"size": 766,
"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/kubernetes/kubernetes/git/blobs/4e417ab3d2552386cf373e7d41dbdedd7dc5854c"
},
{
"path": ".gitattributes",
"mode": "100644",
"type": "blob",
"sha": "022e4cde51e5618685b8c946df693c2f04a23fcb",
"size": 381,
"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/kubernetes/kubernetes/git/blobs/022e4cde51e5618685b8c946df693c2f04a23fcb"
},
Question is - How can retrieve a similar output for a specific commit id by using GitHub APIs?
Example: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/commit/4916b6cd7486e2e0dd6ce5417ae4e6842356954a
CodePudding user response：
You can do this by replacing the branch name (master) with the commit id.
Additionally if you want information about the commit, you can replace trees with commits.
