when using pygithub, has occurred socket.gaierror

Question

i try to use pygithub module, an error occurred in tutorial code.

an error occurs that 'socket.gaierror: [Errno -2] Name or service not known', i don't know why.

this is my tutorial code:

user = Github("id", "password")

publicRepos = user.get_repos()

for repo in publicRepos:
    print repo.name

and i get the following error:

          .
          .
          .
          .

File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/httplib.py", line 969, in endheaders
  self._send_output(message_body)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/httplib.py", line 829, in _send_output
  self.send(msg)

  for res in getaddrinfo(host, port, 0, SOCK_STREAM):
socket.gaierror: [Errno -2] Name or service not know

please tell me how to solve.

The host passed to getaddrinfo is incorrect or not reachable. Can you reach https://api.github.com/ by a browser? — rfkortekaas, Dec 24 '15 at 10:02
Error is ocurred, after printing 100~400 repo.name. The number of printing repo name is irregular. — user5713703, Dec 25 '15 at 09:29
Maybe you've reached the rate limit. See https://developer.github.com/v3/rate_limit/ — rfkortekaas, Dec 25 '15 at 12:04
