有没有办法不用git bash之类的通过代码安装解压github仓库？

Question

Currently I have a problem where I need to install all contents of a github repository ( https://github.com/reversinglabs/reversinglabs-yara-rules ) through code without using git bash or the like. In this case I need to fully install the yara repository from said github. Any one knows a way to do it in c,c++,c#,python?

Unfortunately till now I have yet to succeed in any way.

Answer 1

It's not clear what part of bash, etc, you do not want to use. A simple way otherwise is to just call git through std::system()

#include <cstdlib>

int main(int argc, char**argv) {
    std::system("git clone ...");
}

I have used it in many cases where I need to integrate git commands in a c++ program.

GitHub offers a zip download of all the code it hosts. Use whatever language and library you like to do the equivalent of:

curl -o yara-rules.zip https://github.com/reversinglabs/reversinglabs-yara-rules/archive/refs/heads/develop.zip 
unzip yara-rules.zip

Answer 3

only if you are on linux you can use:

#Python 
import os 
url = input("Url: ")
os.system("git clone " + url)

or in c++

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
   string inputUrl;
   cin >> inputUrl;
   inputUrl = "git clone " + inputUrl;
   system (inputUrl.c_str()); //You need to convert it with .c_str()
}

Hope that this can be useful!
