Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'd like to make custom, external request with custom headers for fetching data using github.request()
in my github-script.
However, the method is ignoring custom HTTP headers provided in it's options like Accept
and Authorization
- I didn't check any others User-agent
might also be the case.
Describe the solution you'd like
Script like this:
github.request('POST https://example.com', {
// I want headers to be like this:
headers: {
authorization: 'Bearer xxx',
accept: 'application/vnd.heroku+json; version=3',
'content-type': 'application/json'
}
});
Could respect given headers in the request options.
It would be a really nice way of fetching data in github-script without usage of additional steps/libs/dependencies.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Using bash step with curl
or exec.exec('curl');
in github-script step, but both feel clunky in this case. Installing node deps like node-fetch
seems like a waste of time and resources, especially when github.request()
is using exactly node-fetch
under the hood, but we just can't access it.
