Cloning private repos from GitHub gives error
robrecord opened this issue · comments
In my satis repository I have one package linked to private repository on GitHub.
When I run build from the administration web form, I get the following output:
'/Users/my-user/Sites/satisfy/bin/satis' 'build' '/Users/my-user/Sites/satisfy/satis.json' 'public' '--skip-errors' '--no-ansi' '--verbose'
Scanning packages
Cloning failed using an ssh key for authentication, enter your GitHub credentials to access private repos

Token (hidden):

stty: stdin isn't a terminal
No token given, aborting.
You can also add it manually later by using "composer config --global --auth github-oauth.github.com "
Skipping Exception 'Failed to execute git clone --mirror 'https://github.com/my-org/my-package.git' '/Users/robrecord/Sites/satisfy/var/composer/cache/vcs/https---github.com-my-org-my-package.git/'

OK
I copied the URL given in line 4 of the output and generated a token.
I copied that token into my parameters.yml file next to github.secret
This didn't change anything.
When I run ./bin/satis build it asks me for my github username and password, which seems odd.
Can you help me understand if I'm doing everything right or if I've missed something?
Also it would be good to get some of this in the documentation. Thanks!
Solution
- Create token on GitHub with full private repo access (all within "repo" scope).
- Copy token
- On server, do:
composer config --global --auth github-oauth.github.com <my-token>

It would be great to get this in the documentation.
Satisfy is a wrapper for composer/satis. The latter must have access, otherwise satisfy will fail.
I would love to review PR with documentation improvements.
