GitHub Organization Manager Scripts

GitHub Organization Manager

A collection of commandline-based tools used to help organize GitHub organizations. Although the web interface works well for basic management, in a number of settings (e.g. GitHub-based courses) you would require bulk operations. This is a work in progress. Basic help could be viewed by:

python orgman.py --help

GitHub username and password should be listed in the orgman.conf.

Installation

• Install pip if it is not available

sudo apt-get install python-pip
pip install requests

• Create the configuration file from default version

cp orgman.conf.default orgman.conf

• Edit orgman.conf

Sample Usage Scenarios

Adding Members to Organization

Members should be GitHub users and they need to be added to a team in order to be members of organization. Start by creating a TEAM_NAME team:

python orgman.py ORG_NAME add --team TEAM_NAME

GitHub uses id numbers for all its teams. For usability, orgman creates an ini-style organization profile file to lookup such information. if you created a profile beforehand, you can simply use that one.

python orgman.py ORG_NAME add --team TEAM_NAME --memeber GITHUB_USERNAME

or

python orgman.py ORG_NAME add --profile ORG_NAME.profile --team TEAM_NAME -memeber GITHUB_USERNAME

Adding milestone to repo and assigne it to a user and give it a label

python orgman.py ORG_NAME add --repo REPO_NAME --member GITHUB_USERNAME --issues ISSUES_FILE
