GithubNotifications

Display your github notifications on the command line. Mainly a project to get some experience with Haskell and Aeson + web requests.

Usage

Add an auth.json file to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/GithubNotifications with your username and personal access token:

{
	"username": "CameronDiver",
	"token": "*****************"
}

Note that the personal access token requires the scopes notifications and repos.

Then simply call the binary:

$ github-notifications

Installing

Requires: stack

• Clone this repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/CameronDiver/GithubNotifications && cd GithubNotification

• Build:

$ stack build

• Install:

$ stack install

This will place the binary into ~/.local/bin (at least on my system).

TODO

• Cache the calls to getEnv and lookupEnv
• Pass the etag back to Github to use cached values (will require caching notifications locally)
• Support pagination (maybe use a github library)
