GitHub Viewer

GitHub Viewer is a CLI tool built to explore public repositories hosted on GitHub. With GitHub Viewer, you can browse and view code hosted on GitHub repositories directly from your terminal using GitHub API.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have the following dependencies installed in your environment:

• jq
• gh
• fzf
• bat
• bash

Installation

For easier access, consider adding the ghv script to your $PATH so you can call it directly without specifying the script's location.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Creator54/ghv/main/ghv
chmod +x ghv

Test

If you want to just test it out and have the dependencies installed you can use the following command:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Creator54/ghv/main/ghv | bash -s creator54/ghv

Usage

Authenticate with github once using gh auth login to use the GitHub API

./ghv <username>
./ghv <username>/<repository>
./ghv <username>/<repository>/<path>
./ghv <repository-url>
./ghv <file-url>
