reposcraper

A program to search for own repositories from Github, Gitlab, and Bitbucket written in Go.

Get the program

go get github.com/MircoT/reposcraper

If you have correctly configured Go, just use reposcraper from the command line and puts the configuration file in your home folder $HOME/.reposcraper/config.json. Read the following documentation for the configuration file requirements.

From source

Edit the config.example.json and rename it config.json. You have to put the information for each service you want to use. For example, if you need only the GitHub search you have to add only this information:

{
    "github": {
        "username": "your username",
        "token": "your token"
    },
}

After that, you can start to use the program simply by typing:

go run .

You can also build the executable and then use it:

go build
./reposcraper

After the program collected all the repositories information (name and description, if it is private or not), you can type to search for a repository and select it from the suggestions. Select the correct response by pressing enter and the program will try to open the repository in the browser using its URL.

By default, the program search also the repository you starred. To search for a specific type, use the flag type:

Search for a repository that you own or you starred

Usage:
  reposcraper [flags]

Flags:
      --config string   config file (default "./config.json")
  -h, --help            help for reposcraper
      --type string     search type: [all, starred, owned] (default "all")

Config file requirements

The program needs the following token from the various services:

• GitHub: a personal access token with the repo and user scopes.
• GitLab: a personal access token with the api and read_repository scopes
• Bitbucket: an OAuth consumers with the following characteristics:
  • Callback URL: http://localhost/bitbucket (or whatever you want, it is not used but only required by the Bitbucket API)
  • This is a private consumer option checked
  • Permission on Projects Read

Then, you can compile the config file with the proper information:

{
    "github": {
        "username": "user",
        "token": "yyy"
    },
    "gitlab": {
        "username": "user",
        "token": "zzz"
    },
    "bitbucket": {
        "username": "user",
        "key": "aaa",
        "secret": "bbb"
    }
}

Note: if a service is missing it will not be used.
