Body

This query doesn't seem to work.

{
  search(query: "repo:owner/repo", type: REPOSITORY) {
    wikiCount
  }
}

According to the docs (https://docs.github.com/en/graphql/reference/objects#searchresultitemconnection), this should return the number of wiki pages, but always returns 0 for me.

You can't directly access the wikiCount field in the GitHub GraphQL API under the search query for a repository. It's more likely used in search operations involving multiple repositories or a broader search scope. When you need to fetch data for one specific repository, including wiki-related information, you could typically query the repository object directly.

import subprocess
import os

def clone_and_count_wiki_pages(repo_url, temp_dir):
    # Clone the wiki Git repository
    wiki_repo_url = repo_url.rstrip('/') + '.wiki.git'
    subprocess.run(['git', 'clone', wiki_repo_url, temp_dir], check=True)

    # Count the number of Markdown files
    wiki_page_count = len([f for f in os.listdir(temp_dir) if f.endswith('.md')])
    return wiki_page_count

# Example usage
repo_url = 'https://github.com/[username]/[repository]'  # Replace with actual repository URL
temp_dir = '/path/to/temp/dir'  # Replace with the path to a temporary directory
wiki_count = clone_and_count_wiki_pages(repo_url, temp_dir)
print(f"Number of wiki pages: {wiki_count}")
