Import a CFP into Github issues for review.
Lots of things are great to do in public. Submitting CFPs isn't one of them. WHY THE $^#% NOT?!?! Knowing that your talk proposal is going to get put under a microscope in public is daunting for a lot of people (especially those who have never spoken before).
Having all your CFP submissions be Github issues, however, is awesome. It's just a huge pain to import them. Wait? This thing does that for me you say? Well WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THAT!
npm install cfp-github-importer -g
cfp-github-importer --file ./cfp-responses.tsv --auth 'user:pass' --repo 'my-conf/cfp-review-2014'
Parsing | ./cfp-responses.tsv
Reading issues | my-conf/cfp-review-2014
Already exists | ZOMG JAVASCRIPT
Already exists | JIFASNIF
Already exists | WHY CANT WE DO ALL THE THINGS
Creating | SOME OTHER NEW TALK
Creating | THAT MEANS THIS IS IDEMPOTENT
n.b. the script is designed to be idempotent so you can run it multiple times and everything will be fine.
Right now this is the brittle part about this, but it assumes the CFP format used by EmpireJS 2014:
| Date | Name | Title | Description | Difficulty (1-5) | Anything Else? |
