Accessing Gists via getMyself().listGists() returns null data for Gist files

[EasyG0ing1]

Once I authenticate to GitHub with a valid access token, but then attempt to pull the Map of Gists using this method:

gitHub.getMyself().listGists();

It will give me a map of GHGist objects and their gistId's, but when I then use the GHGist object to pull the files out of Gist, the file data comes back null.

Edit: Here is some test code with the output if it helps:

System.out.println("GistID's from GHGist objects:");
	for (GHGist ghGist : gitHub.getMyself().listGists().toList()) {
		System.out.println("\t"+ghGist.getGistId());
	}

System.out.println("\nFrom the same GHGist objects, here is the data that their GHGistFile objects contain:\n\nFilename: Content");
	for (GHGist ghGist : gitHub.getMyself().listGists().toList()) {
		for(GHGistFile ghGistFile : ghGist.getFiles().values()) {
			System.out.print("\t"+ghGistFile.getFileName()+": ");
			System.out.println(ghGistFile.getContent());
		}
	}

Output:

GistID's from GHGist objects:
	9dc8a008611a40e94099b1c0b6863733

From the same GHGist objects, here is the data that their GHGistFile objects contain:

Filename: Content
	File.java: null
	TestFile.cpp: null
	TestFile.java: null
	newGistFile.java: null
	SerialzedObjectToBlob.java: null
	TextFieldConstraints.java: null
	Run.java: null
	Button.css: null
	StringPatterns2.java: null
	RangeMap.java: null
	themeDetector.java: null
	ATestForAnother.java: null
	ClassSerializationFileIO.java: null
	Disk.java: null
	FileChecksum.java: null
	FileWalker.java: null
	SampleNew.java: null
	db.java: null
	pom.xml: null
	Begin.java: null
	CSSBoxStyles.java: null
	shadow-styles.css: null
	ListOrganizer.java: null
	OffScreenOffThreadCharts.java: null
	package.sh: null
	GOGOGadget.css: null
	GitMeOuttaHere.java: null
	SomethingDifferent.cpp: null
	StringBuilder.java: null
	C.java: null
	Router.txt: null
	SwitchA.text: null
	SwitchB: null
	SwitchC.txt: null

You can see that the File objects contain the name of the file, but not the content of the file.

Thank you,

@bitwiseman Hi Bitwiseman! May I request the access to hub4j-test-org as I managed to have a fix for this issue and want to submit my PR? I found this issue is caused by the file content field is not returned by the API and we need to do a lazy download from the raw_url field in case the file content is needed but has a null value.
