FAQPage Schema
How do I query GitHub pull requests and filter specific fields?▼

Query GitHub pull requests and filter fields by running the query-prs script with the --jq option to apply jq-based filtering and extract a structured JSON dataset. Omitting --jq returns a schema and size overview instead.

Do I need the GitHub CLI installed to fetch pull request data?▼

Yes, fetching pull request data requires the GitHub CLI (gh) and jq to be installed, as the script combines native gh CLI output with jq-based filtering to return structured PR information.

Can I query pull requests from a specific GitHub repository?▼

Yes, you can query pull requests from a specific GitHub repository by using the --repo option, otherwise the script targets the current repository by default to extract PR data.

What GitHub pull request fields are extracted by default?▼

The script extracts pull request fields including number, title, state, author, and URLs. You can use --jq to refine this output and return a filtered JSON dataset tailored to your needs.

How do I limit the number of pull requests returned from a GitHub query?▼

You can limit the number of pull requests returned by using the --limit option alongside --repo and --state to control the volume of PR data extracted from GitHub.

Why does my pull request query return a schema overview instead of filtered data?▼

Your pull request query returns a schema and size overview when the --jq option is omitted. Provide a valid jq filter with --jq to transform the output and return a filtered JSON dataset.
