Installation

pip install warn-dependents

Usage

The user interface deliberately reads from stdin (via maintainers-and-authors).

echo project_name | warn-dependents <sender_name> <sender_email> <project_name> <discussion_link> <Python_version>

Usage

Breaking the steps down allows checks that all the required APIs are working,and double checking the list of recipients of the emails before hitting "send":

Bash

rev-deps project_name > revdeps.txt
cat revdeps.txt | maintainers-and-authors > emails.txt
SPARKPOST_API_KEY=_____________ 
cat revdeps.txt | warn_dependents "Your name" yourself@example.com project_name https://www.github.com/user_or_org/project_name/discussions 3.14

Cmd.exe

rev-deps project_name > revdeps.txt
type revdeps.txt | maintainers-and-authors > emails.txt
set SPARKPOST_API_KEY=_____________ 
type revdeps.txt | warn_dependents "Your name" yourself@example.com project_name https://www.github.com/user_or_org/project_name/discussions 3.14

To live dangerously and do it all on one line:

SPARKPOST_API_KEY=_____________ && echo project_name | warn-dependents "Your name" yourself@example.com project_name https://www.github.com/user_or_org/project_name/discussions 3.14
