shissue

travis build

shissue (shell issue) is a software that allows you to manage git project issues
from the command line, without the need to open up a browser and go to your issue.

Browsers are huge beasts that can be slow sometimes.

Command line is small and fast.

Don’t having a command line tool for issues made me write less issues for
my projects, both public and private ones.

We have a command line tool for managing git source history, why not one for
managing git issue history?

Build & Install

Install the go compiler (pacman -S go, apt install golang, yum install golang, one of the three will do)
Set the environment variable GOPATH to where you want to download
the source
Type go get github.com/arthurmco/shissue and wait ~and make a
coffee~. A folder named github.com will appear at
GOPATH. Browse it until you find shissuefolder.
Open the shissue folder
Run the build.sh script with the folder you want to install shissue as the argument (like sh build.sh /usr/local/bin). Note that, for some directories, you need to run the script as root!

Usage

> $ shissue help
 shissue - view github/gitlab issues in command line
 Usage: shissue [options] command [commandargs...]
 Commands: 
    help                 Print this help text
    issues               List repository issues
 Options: 
 [-U|--username] <<username>>
    specify the username used in your repo account
 [-P|--password] <<password>>
    specify the password used in your repo account
 --allow-untrusted-certs
    Allow connecting to certificates not trusted by the system

issues will list the issues from the current repository, if it does
have a compatible remote.
For now, it only supports Github public repos, but more will be added
over time (I do have projects in other sites, too!).
- You can specify only ‘username’. If you do that, the software will ask for the
  password.
- You can also store the username inside git configuration (using git config). Use git config shissue.username <<username>> for storing the github username, and you won’t have to type it.
- In Gitlab, you have the personal access token for accessing repos without
  needing a password. Use git config shissue.token <<token>> to set it
  inside shissue.
