A Helpful fabric script for maintaining multiple github projects
First of all, install the project requirements like so:
virtualenv .venv && . .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
Now add an env.yml file, this will be where we store your settings, it is
ignored by our .gitignore, and it will looks something like this:
---
organisation: <my_org>
repo_root: /path/to/my/repos
repo_exclude:
- <repo_to_exclude>
The only key here that is mandatory is organisation, for a full list of
available keys, see the DEFAULTS dictionary in fabfile.py
If you dont yet have the repositories you need, then run the following command, and it will set them up for you, and tell you how many issues they have
fab clone
If you only want to work with particular repos, you can with the with or
without task here, examples:
# Clone only nginx and postgresql
fab with:nginx,postgresql clone
# Fetch and purge from the default upstream on everything but nodejs
fab without:nodejs sh:'git fetch -p'
# List off all the pull requests within the apt repo
fab with:apt pr
# Find PR number 54, add a new remote if necessary, and checkout the branch
fab with:apt pr:54
All repos are selected by default when using a task, and some tasks require you to specify a single repo, you will be warned of this when using them.
To see a list of currently available tasks, type fab -l
