Managing GitHub Watching en masse

Managing GitHub Watching

I decided to unwatch many repos in multiple organizations. Here are two scripts that I wrote to make that possible. It works like:

  1. I load GitHubAccessToken in my environment, an environment variable that gives these access
  2. I run node get-all-watched.js > all-watching.txt to dump all watching into a text file
  3. Run grep "^developmentseed" all-watching > developmentseed.txt, for instance, to make a text file of only repos in the developmentseed org that I'm watching
  4. Run node unwatch-file-of-repos.js developmentseed.txt to unwatch all those repos.

get-all-watched.js
var gotLinks = require('got-links');
var ghGot = require('gh-got');
var getAllWatching = accessToken => gotLinks({
got: ghGot,
url: 'user/subscriptions',
options: {
token: accessToken
},
reducer: (memo, response) => memo.concat(response.body)
});
getAllWatching(process.env.GitHubAccessToken).then(list => {
list.forEach(l => console.log(l.full_name));
});
