Simple GitHub API example using python and personal access token

github_api_example.py

import requests
import json

####
# inputs
####
username = ''

# from https://github.com/user/settings/tokens
token = ''

repos_url = 'https://api.github.com/user/repos'

# create a re-usable session object with the user creds in-built
gh_session = requests.Session()
gh_session.auth = (username, token)

# get the list of repos belonging to me
repos = json.loads(gh_session.get(repos_url).text)

# print the repo names
for repo in repos:
    print repo['name']
    
# make more requests using "gh_session" to create repos, list issues, etc.

This doesn't work anymore. {'message': 'Bad credentials', 'documentation_url': 'https://docs.github.com/rest'}
