Do you find yourself waiting for the little green bulb to turn green so you can merge a PR? Sometimes the tests and associated hooks can take a long time to run and GitHub doesn't send you an email when the mergeable status changes.
Enter pr_status_notifier!
pr_status_notifier is a simple command line utility that will check a given pull request to see if it can be merged. If it can be merged it will pop up a native notification in your Operating System (currently works for MacOS, Windows and Linux).
Looks something like this.
# pr_status_notifier <owner> <repo> <issueNumber>
pr_status_notifier jazzdan pr_status_notifier 1Note that you will need to have a GitHub access token defined in the GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable to access private repositories that you have access to.
