Added
- A GitHub token setting, optional and secret, in the desktop app only: with your own token
GitHub allows 5,000 requests an hour instead of 60. The desktop keeps it in its encrypted
secret vault on the device and the plugin sends it only toapi.github.com; the web app has
no secret settings, so the plugin runs without a token there. A saved token that is not valid
stops every fetch, and the panel asks to paste it again or clear it. The panel's foot opens
the settings. No new permission is asked for.
Changed
- When GitHub's hourly limit is used up, the message says how to add a token in the desktop
app, or that the saved one could not be read while the desktop's secret vault is locked. A
token GitHub rejects is named as the reason instead of an error per repository.
Install
Install from link (Settings → Plugins):
https://github.com/rim-platform/plugin-github-prs/releases/download/v0.0.2/chat.rim.github-prs-0.0.2.rimbundle#sha256=e180467d85dc82fcb130361fe5538251836e7e03f8c29bed80018fdb62fe4234
The desktop app fetches this link itself. GitHub serves release assets without CORS
headers, so the web app cannot fetch it: in the browser, install through a workspace
registry or from a host that sends CORS headers.
Install from git URL (Settings → Plugins, on the desktop):
https://github.com/rim-platform/plugin-github-prs.git installs the built plugin on master.
