/gh-asset-downloader

Primary LanguageShell

gh-asset-downloader

Script adapted from a SO answer in way that:

  1. When GITHUB_API_TOKEN cannot be found in ~/.secret the user is asked to provide it.
  2. When an asset name is not provided, the 1st asset found on the release will be returned.
  3. When a release tag is not provided, the "latest" tag will be used instead.
  4. Owner & repo are provided in a single argument. For example saucal/gh-asset-downloader

So the most basic usage can be simplified to:

./gh-asset-downloader.sh owner/repo

Or get it & run it at once with:

bash -c "$(curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/saucal/gh-asset-downloader/main/gh-asset-downloader.sh)" -s owner/repo
