问题
I would like to programmatically delete a github repo, when setting up a unit test environment for my application.
I am already using the v3 API, which seems to be most supported and the path going forward. I am using the following python lines to successfully CREATE a repo, just fine:
import urllib2, base64
createData = '{\"name\": \"UnitTest-SubModules\", \"description\": \"This is a Fake repo used for testing\"}'
request = urllib2.Request("https://api.github.com/user/repos")
base64string = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % ('user', 'pass')).replace('\n', '')
request.add_header("Authorization", "Basic %s" % base64string)
result = urllib2.urlopen(request, data=createData)
How do I set this up to DELETE a repo? I cannot find the specification for deleting at http://developer.github.com/v3/repos/
I have tried, based off guestimating, the following code, as it follows the API pattern, but it did not work. Came back with urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found
request = urllib2.Request("https://api.github.com/repos/nyeates/UnitTest-SubModules")
base64string = base64.encodestring('%s:%s' % ('user', 'pass')).replace('\n', '')
request.add_header("Authorization", "Basic %s" % base64string)
request.get_method = lambda: 'DELETE'
result = urllib2.urlopen(request)
I got the python http DELETE code from: How to make HTTP DELETE method using urllib2?

The DELETE method is now here: http://developer.github.com/v3/repos/#delete-a-repository
