This backend monitors for notifications and events either on Github user, organization or repository level. You’ll need a Github personal access token to use the service. To get one:
Access your Github profile settings
Select Developer Settings
Select Personal access tokens
Click Generate new token
This backend requires the following permissions:
repo
notifications
read:org
if you want to access repositories on organization level.

- __init__(user: str, user_token: str, repos: Optional[List[str]] = None, org: Optional[str] = None, poll_seconds: int = 60, max_events_per_scan: Optional[int] = 10, *args, **kwargs)[source]
If neither
repos
nororg
is specified then the backend will monitor all new events on user level.- Parameters:
user – Github username.
user_token – Github personal access token.
repos – List of repos to be monitored - if a list is provided then only these repositories will be monitored for events. Repositories should be passed in the format
username/repository
.org – Organization to be monitored - if provided then only this organization will be monitored for events.
poll_seconds – How often the backend should check for new events, in seconds (default: 60).
max_events_per_scan – Maximum number of events per resource that will be triggered if there is a large number of events/notification since the last check (default: 10). Specify 0 or null for no limit.
- property daemon
A boolean value indicating whether this thread is a daemon thread.
This must be set before start() is called, otherwise RuntimeError is raised. Its initial value is inherited from the creating thread; the main thread is not a daemon thread and therefore all threads created in the main thread default to daemon = False.
The entire Python program exits when only daemon threads are left.
- getName()
Return a string used for identification purposes only.
This method is deprecated, use the name attribute instead.
- property ident
Thread identifier of this thread or None if it has not been started.
This is a nonzero integer. See the get_ident() function. Thread identifiers may be recycled when a thread exits and another thread is created. The identifier is available even after the thread has exited.
- isDaemon()
Return whether this thread is a daemon.
This method is deprecated, use the daemon attribute instead.
- is_alive()
Return whether the thread is alive.
This method returns True just before the run() method starts until just after the run() method terminates. See also the module function enumerate().
- join(timeout=None)
Wait until the thread terminates.
This blocks the calling thread until the thread whose join() method is called terminates – either normally or through an unhandled exception or until the optional timeout occurs.
When the timeout argument is present and not None, it should be a floating point number specifying a timeout for the operation in seconds (or fractions thereof). As join() always returns None, you must call is_alive() after join() to decide whether a timeout happened – if the thread is still alive, the join() call timed out.
When the timeout argument is not present or None, the operation will block until the thread terminates.
A thread can be join()ed many times.
join() raises a RuntimeError if an attempt is made to join the current thread as that would cause a deadlock. It is also an error to join() a thread before it has been started and attempts to do so raises the same exception.
- property name
A string used for identification purposes only.
It has no semantics. Multiple threads may be given the same name. The initial name is set by the constructor.
- property native_id
Native integral thread ID of this thread, or None if it has not been started.
This is a non-negative integer. See the get_native_id() function. This represents the Thread ID as reported by the kernel.
- on_message(msg)
Callback when a message is received on the backend. It parses and posts the message on the main bus. It should be called by the derived classes whenever a new message should be processed.
- Parameters:
msg – Received message. It can be either a key-value dictionary, a platypush.message.Message object, or a string/byte UTF-8 encoded string
- on_stop()
Callback invoked when the process stops
- register_service(port: Optional[int] = None, name: Optional[str] = None, srv_type: Optional[str] = None, srv_name: Optional[str] = None, udp: bool = False, properties: Optional[Dict] = None)
Initialize the Zeroconf service configuration for this backend.
- Parameters:
port – Service listen port (default: the backend
port
attribute if available, orNone
).name – Service short name (default: backend name).
srv_type – Service type (default:
_platypush-{name}._{proto}.local.
).srv_name – Full service name (default:
{hostname or device_id}.{type}
).udp – Set to True if this is a UDP service.
properties –
Extra properties to be passed on the service. Default:
{ "name": "Platypush", "vendor": "Platypush", "version": "{platypush_version}" }
- run()[source]
Starts the backend thread. To be implemented in the derived classes if the loop method isn’t defined.
- send_event(event, **kwargs)
Send an event message on the backend.
- Parameters:
event – Event to send. It can be a dict, a string/bytes UTF-8 JSON, or a platypush.message.event.Event object.
- send_message(msg, queue_name=None, **_)
Sends a platypush.message.Message to a node. To be implemented in the derived classes. By default, if the Redis backend is configured then it will try to deliver the message to other consumers through the configured Redis main queue.
- Parameters:
msg – The message to send
queue_name – Send the message on a specific queue (default: the queue_name configured on the Redis backend)
- send_request(request, on_response=None, response_timeout=5, **kwargs)
Send a request message on the backend.
- Parameters:
request – The request, either a dict, a string/bytes UTF-8 JSON, or a platypush.message.request.Request object.
on_response (function) – Optional callback that will be called when a response is received. If set, this method will synchronously wait for a response before exiting.
response_timeout (float) – If on_response is set, the backend will raise an exception if the response isn’t received within this number of seconds (default: None)
- send_response(response, request, **kwargs)
Send a response message on the backend.
- Parameters:
response – The response, either a dict, a string/bytes UTF-8 JSON, or a
platypush.message.response.Response
object.request – Associated request, used to set the response parameters that will link them
- setDaemon(daemonic)
Set whether this thread is a daemon.
This method is deprecated, use the .daemon property instead.
- setName(name)
Set the name string for this thread.
This method is deprecated, use the name attribute instead.
- start()
Start the thread’s activity.
It must be called at most once per thread object. It arranges for the object’s run() method to be invoked in a separate thread of control.
This method will raise a RuntimeError if called more than once on the same thread object.
- stop()
Stops the backend thread by sending a STOP event on its bus
- unregister_service()
Unregister the Zeroconf service configuration if available.
- class platypush.backend.github.GithubResource(**kwargs)[source]
Models the GithubLastEvent table, containing the timestamp where a certain URL was last checked.
- __init__(**kwargs)
A simple constructor that allows initialization from kwargs.
Sets attributes on the constructed instance using the names and values in
kwargs
.Only keys that are present as attributes of the instance’s class are allowed. These could be, for example, any mapped columns or relationships.
