gh-dash

✨ A GitHub (gh) CLI extension to display a dashboard with pull requests and issues by filters you care about.

Installation

Install the gh CLI - see the installation

Installation requires a minimum version (2.0.0) of the the GitHub CLI that supports extensions.
Install this extension:
```
gh extension install dlvhdr/gh-dash
```
To get the icons to render properly you should download and install a Nerd font from https://www.nerdfonts.com/. Then, select that font as your font for the terminal.

Installing Manually

If you want to install this extension manually, follow these steps:

Clone the repo

# git
git clone https://github.com/dlvhdr/gh-dash

# GitHub CLI
gh repo clone dlvhdr/gh-dash

Cd into it
```
cd gh-dash
```
Install it locally
```
gh extension install .
```

🌈 How do I get these exact colors and font?

I'm using Alacritty with the tokyonight theme and the Fira Code Nerd Font. For my full setup check out my dotfiles.

Configuring

Configuration is provided within a config.yml file under the extension's directory (usually ~/.config/gh-dash/)

The default config.yml file contains:

prSections:
  - title: My Pull Requests
    filters: is:open author:@me
  - title: Needs My Review
    filters: is:open review-requested:@me
  - title: Subscribed
    filters: is:open -author:@me repo:cli/cli repo:dlvhdr/gh-dash
    limit: 50 # optional limit per section
issuesSections:
  - title: Created
    filters: is:open author:@me
  - title: Assigned
    filters: is:open assignee:@me
  - title: Subscribed
    filters: is:open -author:@me repo:microsoft/vscode repo:dlvhdr/gh-dash
defaults:
  prsLimit: 20 # global limit
  issuesLimit: 20 # global limit
  preview:
    open: true
    width: 60
repoPaths:
  dlvhdr/gh-dash: ~/code/gh-dash
keybindings: # optional
  prs:
   - key: c
     command: cd {{.RepoPath}}; gh pr checkout {{.PrNumber}}

Adding a PR or issue section is as easy as adding to the list of prSections or issueSections respectively:

title - shown in the TUI
filters - how the repo's PRs should be filtered - these are plain github filters

Keybindings

Define your own custom keybindings to run bash commands using Go Templates. The available arguments are:

Arguement	Description
`RepoName`	The full name of the repo (e.g. `dlvhdr/gh-dash`)
`RepoPath`	The path to the Repo, using the `config.yml` `repoPaths` key to get the mapping
`PrNumber`	The PR number
`HeadRefName`	The PR's remote branch name

For example, to review a PR with either Neovim or VSCode, include this in your config.yml file:

repoPaths:
  dlvhdr/gh-dash: ~/code/gh-dash
keybindings:
  prs:
    - key: c
      command: >
        tmux new-window -c {{.RepoPath}} '
          gh pr checkout {{.PrNumber}} &&
          nvim -c ":DiffviewOpen master...{{.HeadRefName}}"
        '
    - key: v
      command: >
        cd {{.RepoPath}} &&
        code . &&
        gh pr checkout {{.PrNumber}}
