lua.wgists.list

local list=gist.list(opts)

The http task must be running and this will block waiting on results.

List some gists from github using options found in opts, see https://docs.github.com/en/rest/gists

opts.baseurl

Can be used to overide the default of "https://api.github.com" which is set in wgists.baseurl and can also be changed globally there.

opts.token

Should be set to a github access token and is required for writing data or accessing non public information.

opts.username

Is the name of a github user we wish to list gists for

opts.filter

Can be "public" to request only public gists or "starred" to request only starred gists.

opts.since

An ISO_8601 timestamp in a string and should be set if we are only interested in gists since this time.

opts.per_page

The number of results we want, the api limits this to 100 but defaults to 30. Probably a good idea to set this to 100 unless you want to deal with paging code and even then you can only get the first 3000 results.

opts.page

The page of results we are requesting, It defaults to 1 so can be omitted unless you are going to request multiple pages.
