possible to embed Github list of issues (with specific tag) on website?

Question

Does anyone know of an easy way to embed the list of issues with a specific tag from github onto a website?

This is to embed a list of open bugs on a project website.

Answer 1

Solution using jQuery:

There is a way to this easily using the github api using just javascript (no need to set up github account, registering api tokens, etc..)

Below is a small demo using jquery to get a list of all the open bugs for a github project (jquery in this example)

var urlToGetAllOpenBugs = "https://api.github.com/repos/jquery/jquery/issues?state=open&labels=bug";

$(document).ready(function () {
$.getJSON(urlToGetAllOpenBugs, function (allIssues) {
    $("div").append("found " + allIssues.length + " issues
");
    $.each(allIssues, function (i, issue) {
        $("div")
            .append("" + issue.number + " - " + issue.title + "
")
            .append(issue.body + "


");
    });
});
});
