Count comments on a GitHub issue

Why counting comments matters ?

There are two type issues with a lot of comments :

1 The ones that are popular, then getting a lot of feedback
2 The ones that have a lot of comments because we struggle to fix them efficiently

In both cases, performing report on them can be helpful to monitor your RUN performances.

Count with API calls

There actually is no native gh issue command to count issues on a specific command...

but gh api...

"Makes an authenticated HTTP request to the GitHub API and prints the response."

gh api <endpoint> [flags]

This short post is documenting how easy it is to count comments on a given issue.

Snippet

gh api -X GET \  -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" \  -F per_page=100 \  /repos/YOUR_ORGA/REPO/issues/ISSUEID/comments | \  jq '. | length'
