List all GitHub repos for an organization - INCLUDING those in teams

Question

Here's my query to the GitHub API

curl -i -u {user} https://api.github.com/orgs/{org}/repos?type=all

But this does not list all repos for this organization that I have access to. Specifically, it does not list repos in the organization that are part of a team that I am a member of.

If I were to query

curl -i -u {user} https://api.github.com/teams/{teamid}/repos

I would see the missing repos. If I were to navigate to github.com, I would see both private organization repos and my team repos next to each other on the same page. Is there a way to get all of these repos in the same API query?

`gh` is the new GitHub CLI: https://github.com/cli/cli – Boris Yakubchik Jul 29 '21 at 20:51
Yes, Boris is correct. I missed this comment. – Suraj Singh Rathore Jul 31 '21 at 05:52

`gh repo list {organization-name}` does not show all repositories: `Showing 30 of 65 repositories in @linksplatform that match your search` – FreePhoenix888 May 27 '22 at 03:54

Yes by default it shows only 30 repos. if you need more repo then you can use -L flag. gh repo list {organization-name} -L 100 – Suraj Singh Rathore May 27 '22 at 10:39

I apologize. It was listing all my repos...on subsequent pages. Learning about "page=" and "per_page=" was all I needed, and now I can see all of the repos I need.

Its a shame that there is no end point to get the total count of repos under a particular org. I kinda hacked using `per_page=500` so cover most cases. https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/#list-organization-repositories – Hozefa Apr 12 '17 at 06:16

per_page=100 is the max value. – Favo Yang Dec 20 '20 at 08:27

To add to original answer, below command can be used if there are many repositories and you wanted to fetch required number of repos. Without -L flag it returns 30 items by default.

gh repo list <org> -L <#>

If you have gh, the github cli (https://cli.github.com/) and jq (https://stedolan.github.io/jq/) you can do this:

gh repo list $ORG -L $COUNT --json name | jq '.[].name' | tr -d '"'

where $ORG is your organization name and $COUNT is the max number of repos returned

Download the official gh cli, the github cli (https://cli.github.com/)

gh repo list $ORG -L $COUNT --json name --jq '.[].name'

Set $ORG equal to your organization name, and $COUNT to be the amount of Repos you want to list. (Set $COUNT equal to the amount of repos in the organization if you want to list them all)

curl -i -u "username":"password" https://your_git_url.com/organization_name | grep "codeRepository" | awk -F '"' '{print $6}'

This just counted repositories. Wasn't the question for a list of all of them? – MarkTO Oct 07 '19 at 20:53

Have you tried setting the "per_page"-attribute to "0"? I have seen some APIs using a default value of for example 20, but if you activately set it to 0, like ?per_page=0 you get all pages.
