# This is our database object, Post

# I can query it with the Active Record Querying Interface (http://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_querying.html)

# Examples:
# Post.count #=> Counts the number of records in the posts table
# Post.All #=> Returns all posts. Equivalent to SELECT * from posts;

# Routing Calls
######################################

# Callback URL for Github Authentication. This gets a github oauth token
# for use in acquiring API data. It's a bit manual and could be replaced with 
# https://github.com/atmos/sinatra_auth_github, but it works well for now.

# Demonstrate examples of how to get Data using Octokit.rb
# Example API data is from this example account: https://github.com/octocat

    # User Data: 
    # User data is available via client.user. As long as you have be granted access
    # to the "user" scope, you can access any values given in this example API
    # response: http://developer.github.com/v3/users/#response

    # Repository Data:
    # Repository data is available via client.repository (for a specific repo)
    # or client.repositories for the full list of repos. As long as you have been
    # granted access to the "repo" scope, you can access any values given in this
    # example API response: http://developer.github.com/v3/repos/#response-1

    # Get data from a specific repository, if that repository exists.
