cleaning service for your dirty pull requests

Make sure you have python and python-pip installed. From the project folder run:

sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

This tool uses PyGithub library for communication with GitHub. Authentication is handled by providing environmental variable GITHUB_TOKEN which should be generated using instructions from github help pages.

export GITHUB_TOKEN='{TOKEN}'

In order to clean your pull requests you'll also need to provide repository name and define filter function.

You can use this super secret command to get a list of all your repositories.

python github-cleaner list_repos

Last step is to provide a function which will determine whether comment should be deleted. To do this simply overwrite method should_delete.

def should_delete(comment):
    return any([
        'Killer feature, ship it immediately' in comment.body,
        comment.user.login == 'borzecki'
    ]),

Now simply run this command with chosen repository:

python github-cleaner clean_pulls --name={REPOSITORY_NAME}
