GitHub / Canvas Authentications

In this example, we demonstrated the required credentials information needed to execute this program.

To use this software, which essentially is a wrapper package under a API wrapper, you need to provide the program with the appropriate credentials file. We will use the provided credential to authenticate toward both Canvas and GitHub, in order to fetch and manipulate appropriate information.

Note: The program itself won’t either store nor stole your credentials information. This program will stay on your personal computer and will only use your credentials when needed. For more information about the implementation details, please refer to the GitHub repository to view the source code.

from CanvasGroupy.canvas import CanvasGroup
from CanvasGroupy.github import GitHubGroup

The credentials are stored in the following format. You can download a credential template at the following link.

{'GitHub Token': 'token', 'Canvas Token': 'token'}
