NAME

App::TimeTracker::Command::GitHub - App::TimeTracker GitHub plugin

VERSION

version 1.002

DESCRIPTION

Connect tracker with GitHub.

Using the GitHub plugin, tracker can fetch the name of an issue and use it as the task's description; generate a nicely named git branch (if you're also using the Git plugin).

CONFIGURATION

plugins

Add GitHub to the list of plugins.

github

add a hash named github, containing the following keys:

user [REQUIRED]

Your github user name. Best stored in your global TimeTracker config file.

token [REQUIRED]

Your personal access token. Get it from your github settings (Developer Settings, Personal access token): https://github.com/settings/tokens

Best stored in your global TimeTracker config file.

repo [REQUIRED]

The name of the repository you are working on. Currently a required entry to the config file, but we might upgrade it to a command line param and/or try to guess it from the current working dir or your git config.

api_uri

Optional.

Set this to the URL of your local GitHub Enterprise installation.

upstream

Optional.

If the project you are working on has an upstream project where issues are handled, then you can set upstream to a hash of user and repo (like on a normal project) to fetch issues from there.

NEW COMMANDS

No new commands
