nu-issue-tracker

A nushell tool to keep track of the issue tracker over time.

get the previous history of repositories

if you want to keep track of the issue tracker from the beginning of the history of a project, but do not have all the issue counts over time, you can follow the procedure below:

use mod.nu *

# pull the main `nushell` repos
[
    "nushell/nushell"
    "nushell/nu-ansi-term"
    "nushell/nu_scripts"
    "nushell/nushell.github.io"
    "nushell/reedline"
] | each {|repo| get issues $repo --from 1}

# `nushell/nushell` has so many pages, we can only pull the first 59 at once :eyes:
get issues "nushell/nushell" --from 60  # some time later

# gather the issues together in a single NUON file per repository
ls nushell/ | get name | each {|repo|
    gather issues $repo | select number created_at closed_at | save ({
        parent: $repo
        stem: "issues"
        extension: "nuon"
    } | path join)
}

# save the full history files
for repo in (ls nushell/ | get name) {
    print $"(ansi erase_line)building history of ($repo)"

    {
        parent: $repo
        stem: "issues"
        extension: "nuon"
    } | path join
    | open
    | build history
    | save ({
        parent: $repo
        stem: "history"
        extension: "nuon"
    } | path join)
}
