Github connector is a SPCoder module that can be used to connect to a specific Github repository and to show the file structure in SPCoder's Explorerview. You can only read content from github with this connector.

Connecting

You can connect to a Github repository by entering the repo url to Explorerview address field, choosing the Github connector and clicking the Connect button. The other way to connect to a Github repository is by calling the main.Connect method:

main.Connect("https://github.com/tomdam/spcoder", "Github repo");

main.Connect("https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn", "Github repo");
