Why does Github API only returns the first 100 watched repositories?

I'm watching 392 repositories on Github. However, the Github API only returns 100. Does anyone have any idea why?

You need to paginate manually using the page parameter. The HTTP Response headers will tell you the next and the last page, if available. Check the headers:

  • X-Next
  • X-Last

Examples:

curl -D- https://github.com/api/v2/json/repos/watched/trivektor
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.0.4
Date: Sat, 22 Oct 2011 08:24:45 GMT
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Connection: keep-alive
Status: 200 OK
X-RateLimit-Limit: 60
ETag: "c597e396e9f17b91c5c5a7e462ba954f"
X-Next: https://github.com/api/v2/json/repos/watched/trivektor?page=2
X-Last: https://github.com/api/v2/json/repos/watched/trivektor?page=5

Now the 2nd page:

curl -D- https://github.com/api/v2/json/repos/watched/trivektor?page=2
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.0.4
Date: Sat, 22 Oct 2011 08:28:08 GMT
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Connection: keep-alive
Status: 200 OK
X-RateLimit-Limit: 60
ETag: "c57d0e97e2062672cb3771467cf2abc7"
X-Next: https://github.com/api/v2/json/repos/watched/trivektor?page=3
X-Last: https://github.com/api/v2/json/repos/watched/trivektor?page=5
X-Frame-Options: deny
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 58
X-Runtime: 353ms
Content-Length: 44966
Cache-Control: private, max-age=0, must-revalidate

And the last one:

curl -D- https://github.com/api/v2/json/repos/watched/trivektor?page=5
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.0.4
Date: Sat, 22 Oct 2011 08:28:30 GMT
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Connection: keep-alive
Status: 200 OK
X-RateLimit-Limit: 60
ETag: "11ce44ebc229eab0dc31731b39e10dcf"
X-Frame-Options: deny
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 57
X-Runtime: 93ms
Content-Length: 7056
Cache-Control: private, max-age=0, must-revalidate


Very common for API's to limit the size of a response object to protect against outliers. Given that it's returning a round number, that suggests this is by design. I don't see them discussing paging in their docs, so it might just be a hard cap. Either way, you should just ping github.
