注:内容附件 API 目前处于公测阶段,仅用于 GitHub 应用程序。 在此期间,功能和要求可能会随时更改。
About content attachments
A GitHub App can register domains that will trigger content_reference
events. When someone includes a URL that links to a registered domain in the body or comment of an issue or pull request, the app receives the content_reference
webhook. You can use content attachments to visually provide more context or data for the URL added to an issue or pull request. The URL must be a fully-qualified URL, starting with either http://
or https://
. URLs that are part of a markdown link are ignored and don't trigger the content_reference
event.
Before you can use the 内容附件 API, you'll need to configure content references for your GitHub App:
- Give your app
Read & write
permissions for "Content references." - Register up to 5 valid, publicly accessible domains when configuring the "Content references" permission. Do not use IP addresses when configuring content reference domains. You can register a domain name (example.com) or a subdomain (subdomain.example.com).
- Subscribe your app to the "Content reference" event.
Once your app is installed on a repository, issue or pull request comments in the repository that contain URLs for your registered domains will generate a content reference event. 应用程序必须在发布内容引用 URL 后六小时内创建内容附件。
Content attachments will not retroactively update URLs. It only works for URLs added to issues or pull requests after you configure the app using the requirements outlined above and then someone installs the app on their repository.
See "Creating a GitHub App" or "Editing a GitHub App's permissions" for the steps needed to configure GitHub App permissions and event subscriptions.
Implementing the content attachment flow
The content attachment flow shows you the relationship between the URL in the issue or pull request, the content_reference
webhook event, and the REST API endpoint you need to call to update the issue or pull request with additional information:
Step 1. Set up your app using the guidelines outlined in About content attachments. You can also use the Probot App example to get started with content attachments.
Step 2. Add the URL for the domain you registered to an issue or pull request. You must use a fully qualified URL that starts with http://
or https://
.
Step 3. Your app will receive the content_reference
webhook with the action created
.
{
"action": "created",
"content_reference": {
"id": 17,
"node_id": "MDE2OkNvbnRlbnRSZWZlcmVuY2UxNjA5",
"reference": "errors.ai"
},
"repository": {...},
"sender": {...},
"installation": {
"id": 371641,
"node_id": "MDIzOkludGVncmF0aW9uSW5zdGFsbGF0aW9uMzcxNjQx"
}
}
Step 4. The app uses the content_reference
id
, to Create a content attachment using the REST API. You'll also need the installation
id
to authenticate as a GitHub App installation.

标头中提供自定义媒体类型:
application/vnd.github.corsair-preview+json
警告: 在预览期间,API 可能会更改,恕不另行通知。 预览功能不支持用于生产。 如果遇到任何问题,请联系 your site administrator。
The body
parameter can contain markdown:
<pre><code class="hljs language-shell">curl -X POST \
https://api.github.com/content_references/1512/attachments \
-H 'Accept: application/vnd.github.corsair-preview+json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer $INSTALLATION_TOKEN' \
-d '{
"title": "[A-1234] Error found in core/models.py file",
"body": "You have used an email that already exists for the user_email_uniq field.\n ## DETAILS:\n\nThe (email)=(Octocat@github.com) already exists.\n\n The error was found in core/models.py in get_or_create_user at line 62.\n\n self.save()"
}'</code></pre>
For more information about creating an installation token, see "Authenticating as a GitHub App."
Step 5. You'll see the new content attachment appear under the link in a pull request or issue comment:
Using content attachments in GraphQL
We provide the node_id
in the content_reference
webhook event so you can refer to the createContentAttachment
mutation in the GraphQL API.

标头中提供自定义媒体类型:
application/vnd.github.corsair-preview+json
警告: 在预览期间,API 可能会更改,恕不另行通知。 预览功能不支持用于生产。 如果遇到任何问题,请联系 your site administrator。
例如:
mutation {
createContentAttachment(input: {
contentReferenceId: "MDE2OkNvbnRlbnRSZWZlcmVuY2UxNjA1",
title: "[A-1234] Error found in core/models.py file",
body:"You have used an email that already exists for the user_email_uniq field.\n ## DETAILS:\n\nThe (email)=(Octocat@github.com) already exists.\n\n The error was found in core/models.py in get_or_create_user at line 62.\n\n self.save()"
}) {
contentAttachment {
... on ContentAttachment {
id
title
body
}
}
}
}
Example cURL:
curl -X "POST" "https://api.github.com/graphql" \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer $INSTALLATION_TOKEN' \
-H 'Accept: application/vnd.github.corsair-preview+json' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8' \
-d $'{
"query": "mutation {\\n createContentAttachment(input:{contentReferenceId: \\"MDE2OkNvbnRlbnRSZWZlcmVuY2UxNjA1\\", title:\\"[A-1234] Error found in core/models.py file\\", body:\\"You have used an email that already exists for the user_email_uniq field.\n ## DETAILS:\n\nThe (email)=(Octocat@github.com) already exists.\n\n The error was found in core/models.py in get_or_create_user at line 62.\n\n\self.save()\\"}) {\\n contentAttachment {\\n id,\\n title,\\n body\\n }\\n }\\n}"
}'

Example using Probot and GitHub App Manifests
To quickly setup a GitHub App that can use the 内容附件 API, you can use Probot. See "Creating GitHub Apps from a manifest" to learn how Probot uses GitHub App Manifests.
To create a Probot App, follow these steps:
-
Open the project you created, and customize the settings in the
app.yml
file. Subscribe to thecontent_reference
event and enablecontent_references
write permissions:default_events: - content_reference # The set of permissions needed by the GitHub App. The format of the object uses # the permission name for the key (for example, issues) and the access type for # the value (for example, write). # Valid values are `read`, `write`, and `none` default_permissions: content_references: write content_references: - type: domain value: errors.ai - type: domain value: example.org
-
Add this code to the
index.js
file to handlecontent_reference
events and call the REST API:module.exports = app => { // Your code here app.log('Yay, the app was loaded!') app.on('content_reference.created', async context => { console.log('Content reference created!', context.payload) // Call the "Create a content reference" REST endpoint await context.github.request({ method: 'POST', headers: { accept: 'application/vnd.github.corsair-preview+json' }, url: `/content_references/${context.payload.content_reference.id}/attachments`, // Parameters title: '[A-1234] Error found in core/models.py file', body: 'You have used an email that already exists for the user_email_uniq field.\n ## DETAILS:\n\nThe (email)=(Octocat@github.com) already exists.\n\n The error was found in core/models.py in get_or_create_user at line 62.\n\nself.save()' }) }) }
-
Run the GitHub App locally. Navigate to localhost:3000, and click the Register GitHub App button:
-
Install the app on a test repository.
-
Create an issue in your test repository.
-
Add a comment to the issue you opened that includes the URL you configured in the
app.yml
file. -
Take a look at the issue comment and you'll see an update that looks like this:
