search for github users in a particular geo and find their email address.

gh.rb

require "octokit"
require "json"

auth = "your-github-auth-token-goes-here"
Octokit.auto_paginate = true
c = Octokit::Client.new(:access_token => auth, :auto_paginate => true, :per_page =>1000)

### GET USER IDS FOR GEOS DEFINED in `locations` ###

data = []
# locations = [
# 	'brooklyn',
# 	'manhattan, new york',
# 	'manhattan, ny',
# 	'new york, ny',
# 	'new york, ny',
# 	'new york',
# 	'staten island',
# 	'bronx',
# 	'new york city',
# 	'nyc',
# ]

locations = ["new york"]

locations.each do |l|
	puts 'searching for users in: ' + l
	
	s = c.search_users('location:'+l+'type:user')
	puts "# of results from API: " + s.total_count.to_s
	puts "# of results in `items`: " + s.items.length.to_s 

	s.items.each do |i|
		puts "user: " + i[:login]
		data.push(i[:login])		
	end
	
end

### FIND USER EMAILS AND WRITE TO CSV ###
### inspired / cribbed from https://github.com/paulirish/github-email
### FYI, you still need to read through and check emails!!! (lots of irrelevant ones will be pulled)

writefile = File.open "users.csv","a"
writefile.puts "login,emails"

data.each_with_index do |d, index|
	
	#hai rate limiting
	sleep 15 if index % 5 == 0
	puts d
	e = []
	
	###### check github for email
	
	s = c.user(d)
	if s[:email].to_s
		e.push(s['email'].to_s)
	end

	###### emails from commits
	
	t = c.user_events(d)
	t.each do |i|
		js = i.map(&:to_a).to_s		
		em = js.scan(/email=>(\".*?\")/)
		em.uniq.each do |j|
			tmp = j.to_s.gsub! '["\"', ''
			tmp = tmp.to_s.gsub! '\""]', ''
			e.push(tmp)
		end
		
	end
	
	puts "login: " + d.to_s  + ", name: " + s['name'].to_s + ", email: " +  e.join(",")
	writefile.puts d + "," + s['name'].to_s + "," +e.join(",")
end
