The GitHub CLI has added functionality similar to this library (gh search issues, ...), so just use that instead.
Provides a cli for searching github.com. Supports repositories, code, issues and commits. Can be configured for github enterprise instances as well. Built using oclif
The cli requires a personal access token (notifications scope is needed for the notifications command). The cli will create a new token on the first run and store it for future use. If you prefer you can use your own token and config the cli yourself (see ghs config)
