How to retrieve GIT LFS files from GitHub

Retrieving non-LFS files

Through the GitHub API it is possible to retrieve individual files from a Git repository via, e.g. curl. To do so, first retrieve the content information for the relevant file (or folder):

curl https://api.github.com/repos/{organisation}/{repository}/contents/{file or folder path}

For private repositories, authenticate using your username and a personal access token

Node.js Deployment

Steps to deploy a Node.js app to Digital Ocean using PM2, NGINX as a reverse proxy and an SSL from LetsEncrypt

1. Sign up for Digital Ocean

If you use the referal link below, you get $10 free (1 or 2 months) https://m.do.co/c/5424d440c63a

2. Create a droplet and log in via ssh

I will be using the root user, but would suggest creating a new user

import os
# We'll render HTML templates and access data sent by POST
# using the request object from flask. Redirect and url_for
# will be used to redirect the user once the upload is done
# and send_from_directory will help us to send/show on the
# browser the file that the user just uploaded
from flask import Flask, render_template, request, redirect, url_for, send_from_directory
from werkzeug import secure_filename

# Initialize the Flask application
