I'm working on a private project with similar functionality and we've had a lot of success with OAuth tokens.
I think Search API has custom rate limit which is same regardless of token type. The other way I can think of would be to just have the repo(s) cloned on the local for an org/person/repo and then run a scan locally. this would require rewriting the tool though
@techgaun yes, however each independent key has a separate ratelimit. So if you had 2 or 3 friends, then you can achieve 2 or 3 times the search speed.
ahh yeah thats what this issue is for :) I understood your comment differently (sorry). If you want to take this issue, I would be more than happy. Otherwise, I will try getting it done over next weekend.
Unfortunately I don't know that I'll have the time for this. Also, my Python is very rusty.
cool no problem
Or maybe there's an alternative? But, if we can use tokens from multiple users, we can probably improve the time to wait.
