GITHUB UPDATES

The tool will assist in getting the PRs curated for the weekly developer newsletter sent by Hyperledger. The tool will print list of all PRs from Hyperledger and Hyperledger Labs into a html file that were raised in last X days. The number of days is configurable, current default is set to be 7. Similarly, it will pull all the releases created in last X days.

In addition to the PRs, the tool also polls for the issues with specific tags and tracks releases on the input organization repositories. It is customizable to enable any one or all three of these.

Note that the tool expects user to set the GitHub personal access token with the read access. This is to avoid GitHub from blocking the machine due to frequent API calls. The tool makes use of go-github for pulling the data.

Dependencies

Option GitHub personal access token with read access (this is required in case of frequent API calls, default rate that GitHub allow is 60).

Set the following environment variable before running the tool

export GITHUB_TOKEN=<YOUR LONG PERSONAL ACCESS TOKEN HERE>

The tool is written in Go version 1.15, you can also use the docker container runtime engine to package and run it as a container. Tool also comes with a docker-compose file to make it easy to run the command with default configuration.

Tested docker and docker-compose versions

  • Docker version 19.03.4
  • docker-compose version 1.24.1
