Octocrab is a modern, extensible GitHub API client library for Rust. It offers a strongly typed semantic API covering most GitHub endpoints plus a lower-level HTTP API for extending behavior, including GitHub App authentication support.

Use cases

• build a GitHub bot in Rust
• query GitHub issues and pull requests programmatically
• authenticate as a GitHub App and call the API
• search repositories and users via the GitHub API
• automate GitHub Actions workflows from code
• call GitHub's GraphQL API from Rust

When to choose

• you need typed Rust bindings for most GitHub REST endpoints
• you're building GitHub integrations, bots, or automation in Rust
• you need GitHub App auth and rate-limit handling out of the box

When to avoid

• you need a GitHub client in another language like JavaScript or Python
• you only need simple git operations rather than the GitHub API
• you need a CLI tool rather than a library
