A better interface to github issues.
To run the server, you will need to generate a self-signed certificate and private key. Info on how to do so is here:
http://www.akadia.com/services/ssh_test_certificate.html
Create a "keys" folder next to index.js, and name the files: server-cert.pem -- certificate server-key.pem -- private key (unencrypted)
You'll also need to install Node.
Once that's done, just cd into the repoman root folder and do node index.js, then hit
https://localhost:8080/ from a web browser.
By default, the GitHub API rate limit for unauthenticated requests is 60 per hour. If you want to use the higher 5000-per-hour rate limit, register an OAuth app with GitHub, and create a "config.json" file next to index.js that contains your app's client_id and client_secret.
The config.json API may also contain:
- hostname - name of the host we're running on
- securePort - port to listen on for https
- redirectPort - http port to redirect to securePort from
Note that we always redirect from http to the default https port (not securePort), so the redirect won't work on your localhost; if testing locally, you should just hit https://localhost:8080 (or whatever) directly.
