I am trying to get the list of issues by their ids from Github using graphql, but looks like I am missing something or its not possible.
query ($ids:['517','510']!) {
repository(owner:"owner", name:"repo") {
issues(last:20, states:CLOSED) {
edges {
node {
title
url
body
author{
login
}
labels(first:5) {
edges {
node {
name
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
The above query is giving me response as below,
{
"errors": [
{
"message": "Parse error on \"'\" (error) at [1, 14]",
"locations": [
{
"line": 1,
"column": 14
}
]
}
]
}
Kindly help me identify if its possible or that I am doing something wrong here.

You can use aliases in order to build a single request requesting multiple issue
object :
{
repository(name: "material-ui", owner: "mui-org") {
issue1: issue(number: 2) {
title
createdAt
}
issue2: issue(number: 3) {
title
createdAt
}
issue3: issue(number: 10) {
title
createdAt
}
}
}
which gives :
{
"data": {
"repository": {
"issue1": {
"title": "Support for ref's on Input component",
"createdAt": "2014-10-15T15:49:13Z"
},
"issue2": {
"title": "Unable to pass onChange event to Input component",
"createdAt": "2014-10-15T16:23:28Z"
},
"issue3": {
"title": "Is it possible for me to make this work if I'm using React version 0.12.0?",
"createdAt": "2014-10-30T14:11:59Z"
}
}
}
}
This request can also be simplified using fragments to prevent repetition:
{
repository(name: "material-ui", owner: "mui-org") {
issue1: issue(number: 2) {
...IssueFragment
}
issue2: issue(number: 3) {
...IssueFragment
}
issue3: issue(number: 10) {
...IssueFragment
}
}
}
fragment IssueFragment on Issue {
title
createdAt
}
The request can be built programmatically, such as in this example python script :
import requests
token = "YOUR_TOKEN"
issueIds = [2,3,10]
repoName = "material-ui"
repoOwner = "mui-org"
query = """
query($name: String!, $owner: String!) {
repository(name: $name, owner: $owner) {
%s
}
}
fragment IssueFragment on Issue {
title
createdAt
}
"""
issueFragments = "".join([
"""
issue%d: issue(number: %d) {
...IssueFragment
}""" % (t,t) for t in issueIds
])
r = requests.post("https://api.github.com/graphql",
headers = {
"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}"
},
json = {
"query": query % issueFragments,
"variables": {
"name": repoName,
"owner": repoOwner
}
}
)
print(r.json()["data"]["repository"])

I don't think you can fetch for issues
and pass in an array of integers for their id
s.
But you can search for a single issue by id
like so (this works for me)
query ($n: Int!) {
repository(owner:"owner", name:"repo-name") {
issue (number: $n) {
state
title
author {
url
}
}
}
}
where $n
is {"n": <your_number>}
defined.
If you have an array of id
s, then you can just make multiple queries to GitHub.
Sadly, with this approach, you cannot specify what the state
of the issue to be. But I think the logic is that once you know the issue Id, you shouldn't care what state it is, since you have that exact id.
