Many of us enjoy working on a project where issues are detailed, well-written and kept up to date. There's just one problem with that: editing issues is not fun.
With Git(Hub/Lab) Agent, you can sync your issues as text files to some local folder, in fact a git repo, and use your favorite editor for editing, and run a periodic "sync" command doing the least surprising job at syncing the issues.
Binary installs (Linux and macOS at the moment) are available via npm:
npm install -g github-agent
Source install
Install Stack, then
stack install
This will put github-agent into ~/.local/bin.
Copy config.dhall.example to ~/.github-agent.dhall for usage.
Usage:
github-agent sync-in-- sync issues from the repo and put under<number>.mdin some local git repo path, then commit the changesgithub-agent sync-out-- for every modified issue, check if it wasn't modified on server, and edit it in the repo, commit changes
You can use ~ in your paths to refer to your $HOME directory.
TODO:
- add parameter to select a repo to sync (otherwise takes too long to sync many repos)
- gitlab: don't list all the issues in the
getIssueInfoevery time (add appropriate API in gitlab-haskell)
