如何使用github Java API（org.eclipse.egit.github。*）搜索给定的提交哈希

Question

It is possible to receive details regarding a given commit from calling github Search API found in here with providing the relevant commit hash, Now I need to get the same response by using github java API (org.eclipse.egit.github.*) which can be found in here . According to their documentation of the version 2.1.5 found in here , there is no method in CommitService class to get commit information by providing only the commit hash . Is there a workaround to reach them? Thanks in advance

You can use the CommitService.getCommit(IRepositoryIdProvider, String) method, just feed in one more argument, the repository where the commit will be searched. For example,

GitHubClient client = new GitHubClient(server).setCredentials(login, token);
RepositoryService repoService = new RepositoryService(client);

// If you know which repository to search (you know the owner and repo name)
Repository repository = repoService.getRepository(owner, repoName);

CommitService commitService = new CommitService(client)
Commit commit1 = commitService.getCommit(repository, sha).getCommit();
System.out.println("Author: " + commit1.getAuthor().getName());
System.out.println("Message: " + commit1.getMessage());
System.out.println("URL: " + commit1.getUrl());

Or you may just loop through each repository returned from the RepositoryService.getRepositories() method, if you don't know which repository to search. For example,

List<Repository> repositories = repoService.getRepositories();
Commit commit2 = null;
for (Repository repo : repositories) {
    try {
        commit2 = commitService.getCommit(repo, sha).getCommit();
        System.out.println("Repo: " + repo.getName());
        System.out.println("Author: " + commit2.getAuthor().getName());
        System.out.println("Message: " + commit2.getMessage());
        System.out.println("URL: " + commit2.getUrl());
        break;
    } catch (RequestException re) {
        if (re.getMessage().endsWith("Not Found (404)")) {
            continue;
        } else {
            throw re;
        }
    }
}
