When writing a file: 422 (Unprocessable Entity)

[leobenkel]

Hello,

I am trying to write a file doing:

new GitHub(authPayload)
    .getRepo(githubUsername, repoName)
    .writeFile(null, path, content, commitMessage, {
                    encode: true,
                    author: null,
                    committer: null
    })

But i am getting a 422 (Unprocessable Entity). This is a new file, and I am seeing in the log the 404 (Not Found) from the call trying to get the SHA which is correct ( i dont understand why this is dumped into the console tho...).

Looking online at https://developer.github.com/v3/repos/contents/#create-or-update-file-contents , it seems that when author and committer are used , then we need to specify name and author. But in my case, I would like to use the default behavior which is to use the authenticated user.

When I look at http://github-tools.github.io/github/docs/3.2.3/Repository.js.html#line750 , it seems that the keys are set. Should they not be here at all, in case they are not given in the option payload ?

Thank you !
