##### Works with Alfred Workflow

![oh-my-stars-alfred-workflow](https://raw.github.com/wolfg1969/my-stars-pilot/master/oh-my-stars-alfred-workflow.png)

### Configuration
You can avoid entering your GitHub API credentials every time you update the index, by adding them to the ``~/.netrc`` file as follows:

```ini
machine api.github.com
login ‹GH_USERNAME›
password ‹GH_API_TOKEN›
```
Use an API token as the password – you can create one via *Settings » Developer settings » Personal access tokens* in the GitHub web interface.

Once you have stored credentials, you can also automate the index update by adding a job with ``crontab -e``:

```sh
# GitHub stars
0 6 * * * ~/.local/bin/mystars -u
```

### Installation (Mac OSX)
```sh
$ pip install oh-my-stars --upgrade --user
$ mystars --help
$ mystars --update
$ mystars angular upload
$ mystars --language python
$ mystars awesome python
```

if install failed, try following commands
```sh
$ pip uninstall distribute
$ pip install setuptools
$ pip install --upgrade setuptools
```

### Integration with Alfred
```sh
$ mystars -i -3
```
For Alfred v2
```sh
$ mystars -i
```
