    Returns information for all issues in a given repository, based on the search options.
    .. versionadded:: 2016.11.0
    repo_name
        The name of the repository for which to list issues. This argument is
        required, either passed via the CLI, or defined in the configured
        profile. A ``repo_name`` passed as a CLI argument will override the
        repo_name defined in the configured profile, if provided.
    profile
        The name of the profile configuration to use. Defaults to ``github``.
    milestone
        The number of a GitHub milestone, or a string of either ``*`` or
        ``none``.
        If a number is passed, it should refer to a milestone by its number
        field. Use the ``github.get_milestone`` function to obtain a milestone's
        number.
        If the string ``*`` is passed, issues with any milestone are
        accepted. If the string ``none`` is passed, issues without milestones
        are returned.
    state
        Indicates the state of the issues to return. Can be either ``open``,
        ``closed``, or ``all``. Default is ``open``.
    assignee
        Can be the name of a user. Pass in ``none`` (as a string) for issues
        with no assigned user or ``*`` for issues assigned to any user.
    creator
        The user that created the issue.
    mentioned
        A user that's mentioned in the issue.
    labels
        A string of comma separated label names. For example, ``bug,ui,@high``.
    sort
        What to sort results by. Can be either ``created``, ``updated``, or
        ``comments``. Default is ``created``.
    direction
        The direction of the sort. Can be either ``asc`` or ``desc``. Default
        is ``desc``.
    since
        Only issues updated at or after this time are returned. This is a
        timestamp in ISO 8601 format: ``YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ``.
    output
        The amount of data returned by each issue. Defaults to ``min``. Change
        to ``full`` to see all issue output.
    per_page
        GitHub paginates data in their API calls. Use this value to increase or
        decrease the number of issues gathered from GitHub, per page. If not set,
        GitHub defaults are used. Maximum is 100.
    CLI Example:
    .. code-block:: bash
        salt myminion github.get_issues my-github-repo
