I'm trying to download the latest release from my private github repo. I've setup a token, I can retrieve the release information, but I can't download the release.
import requests
from requests.auth import HTTPBasicAuth
r = requests.get(
'https://MYTOKEN:@api.github.com/repos/andrewtquick/releasetest/releases/latest')
d = r.json()['assets'][0]["browser_download_url"]
with open('c:/temp/app.exe', 'wb') as f:
download = requests.get(d, headers={'Authorization': 'MYTOKEN'})
f.write(download.content)
I keep getting 404 responses.. I've tried to use my token in the headers and also tried to use my login credentials with requests HTTPBasicAuth.. Nothing seems to work..
When I check the accepted headers for the url, I get the following:
{'Server': 'GitHub.com',

I can see the Authorization header and the Accept header. I've tried using github's recommendation on setting the header to 'application/octet-stream', but this doesn't work either.
Usually, MYTOKEN is used as password:
r = requests.get(
'https://<username>:MYTOKEN@api.github.com/repos/andrewtquick/releasetest/releases/latest')
As in this example :
url = urljoin(GITHUB_API, 'authorizations')
payload = {}
if note:
payload['note'] = note
res = requests.post(
url,
auth = (username, password),
data = json.dumps(payload),
)
Except you would replace the GitHub account password by a PAT (Personal Access Token) .
