Bugmatic is supposed to be a simple offline browser/editor for Github Issues. The idea is that just as you can download your Git repository from Github and fully use it while you are on a plane, you should be able to manage your Github Issues.
Another goal of Bugmatic is to provide a way to back up Github issues in an open file format.
mac:~ user$ mkdir mybugs
mac:~ user$ cd mybugs
mac:~ user$ bugmatic init
mac:~ user$ bugmatic new "I have issues!" "Let's fix them."
Created Issue 1.
mac:~ user$ bugmatic label showstopper 1
mac:~ user$ bugmatic push userName projectName
or if you already have issues on Github:
mac:~ user$ mkdir mybugs
mac:~ user$ cd mybugs
mac:~ user$ bugmatic clone userName projectName
mac:~ user$ bugmatic list WHERE assignee.login=userName
#4: Add support for OAuth
#5: Should report rate limit exceeded
mac:~ user$ bugmatic new "Fix this, too?" "I just thought of it."
mac:~ user$ bugmatic push userName projectName
Currently, there's a macOS Xcode project that builds a bugmatic command line
tool. You use this tool to manage your issues, however all state is saved in a
folder of JSON files on your disk, so you should not have any problems accessing
your bugs even if you do not have Bugmatic.
The bugmatic tool can currently download a full copy of your Github issues
and their comments. It can also create new local issues, and push them to
Github (updating them to match the metadata Github added). Eventually, I want
it to be able to sync changes and new issues from Github back down.
Ideally, we would have Git-like features like pushing issues to collaborators without having to go through Github, maybe by using Git as our storage mechanism.
