This is a simple script I wrote to erase the assignments I completed as a coding boot camp student. Each student "lab" was completed by forking a Flatiron repository and submitting a pull request to the original repo once finished.
To access the Github API, you will need to create an access token here. In the scripts folder, create a new file named key.js. In this file create a constant representing the base url for the API calls: const BASEURL = "https://api.github.com". Also create a const TOKEN equal to your token string.
You can clone this repo, open up index.html in the browser and then run the commands in the developer's console. gitRun is the function which runs all the other functions. It takes an argument of the name of the Flatiron class. For example I was class 0916, so most of my repos ended in "web-0916" since the labs are deployed separately to each class. Passing "web-0916" to gitRun initiates a search for repos owned by the owner of the Github token (me) which contain the string "web-0916" in the repo name. A separate delete request is then sent for each of these repos.
The API call is currently set to return 100 repositories at a time (before the filtering by name step). You may have to run the script a few times to remove all Flatiron labs.
