dinghy 0.4.0

Dinghy daily digest tool

Dinghy daily GitHub digest tool.

Dinghy uses the GitHub GraphQL API to find recent activity on issues and pull requests, and writes a compact HTML digest. Write your configuration in a dinghy.yaml file, then:

$ pip install dinghy
$ python -m dinghy

Configuration

Dinghy configuration is read from a dinghy.yaml file:

digests:
  - digest: lastweek.html
    since: 1 week
    items:
      - https://github.com/orgs/myorg/projects/17
      - https://github.com/orgs/anotherorg/projects/8
      - https://github.com/myorg/myrepo/pulls

  - digest: hotnews.html
    since: 1 day
    items:
      - url: https://github.com/orgs/anotherorg/projects/8
        home_repo: anotherorg/wg
      - https://github.com/myorg/churnchurn/issues

  - digest: all_prs.html
    since: 1 day
    items:
      - pull_requests: org:myorg

defaults:
  ignore_users:
    - app-user
    - fake-bot

The digests clause is a list of digests to produce. The defaults clause sets defaults for the digest options in the rest of the file. Each in the digests clause specifies what to digest:

• The digest setting is the HTML file to write.

• The since setting indicates how far back to look for activity. It can use units of weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds, and can also be abbreviated, like 1d6h.

• The items setting is a list of things to report on, specified in a few different ways:

  • The url setting is a GitHub URL, in a number of forms:

    • An organization project URL will report on the issues and pull requests in the project.

    • A URL to a repo will report on the issues and pull requests in the repo.

    • A URL to a repo’s issues will report on the issues in the repo.

    • A URL to a repo’s pull requests will report on the pull requests in the repo.

  • The pull_requests setting can specify an organization to search for pull requests.

  • If an item only needs to specify a GitHub URL, then it can simply be the URL string.

Items can have additional options:

• No activity is reported for bot users. Some applications act as real users, but should be ignored anyway. You can list those user names that should be ignored in the ignore_users setting.

• Options for organization projects include:

  • home_repo is the owner/repo of the repo in which most issues will be created. Issues in other repos will have the repo indicated in the digest.
