Luzifer / github-masswatch

This project is a small helper for mass-watching / unwatching in GitHub repositories. If you are in a bigger organization like me you might have switched off auto-watching for new repositories as your mailbox gets flooded with stuff you don't even like to see. So after turning off the automatic watching you will not notice new repositories and you have to subscribe them one by one. To make this a bit more easy and have a chance to do this with a Jenkins job or similar I wrote this little tool.

Features

• List all repositories you have access to
• List all repositories you are currently subscribed to
• Test a RegExp against that repository list
• Watch and unwatch repositories by providing a RegExp

Simple usage example

# bundle install
[...]

# ruby watch.rb help
Commands:
  watch.rb help [COMMAND]   # Describe available commands or one specific command
  watch.rb list <regex>     # lists all repos, useful to test your watch regex
  watch.rb unwatch <regex>  # unwatch all repos matching your regex
  watch.rb watch <regex>    # watch all repos matching your regex
  watch.rb watched <regex>  # show all watched repos, useful to test your unwatch regex

Options:
  [--token=TOKEN]

# ruby watch.rb list --token=<mytoken>
Luzifer/alarmclock
Luzifer/alfred-fold
Luzifer/alfred-pwdgen
