# `@actions/github`
> A hydrated Octokit client.
## Usage
Returns an [Octokit SDK] client. See https://octokit.github.io/rest.js for the API.
```
const github = require('@actions/github');
// This should be a token with access to your repository scoped in as a secret.
const myToken = process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN
const octokit = new github.GitHub(myToken)
const pulls = await octokit.pulls.get({
owner: 'octokit',
repo: 'rest.js',
pull_number: 123,
mediaType: {
format: 'diff'
}
})
console.log(pulls)
```
You can also make GraphQL requests:
```
const result = await octokit.graphql(query, variables)
```
Finally, you can get the context of the current action:
```
const github = require('@actions/github');
const context = github.context
const newIssue = await octokit.issues.create({
...context.repo,
title: 'New issue!',
body: 'Hello Universe!'
})
```
