# GitTweet
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Tier:** 3-Advanced
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the [GitHub Timeline](./GitHub-Timeline-App.md) app you used GitHub's API to
|
||
|
|
create a timeline of your repos. What could be more powerful that using an API
|
||
|
|
such as this? Why using two API's, of course.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The goal of GitTweet is to create a GitHub app to tweet when a pull requst
|
||
|
|
is created for one of your repos.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## User Stories
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User can see an input area tabular display prepopulated with rows for
|
||
|
|
each of the GitHub repos she owns and a selection checkbox next to each repo
|
||
|
|
name, a single input date field, and a 'Scan' button.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User can click the checkboxes in the repo list to select or deselect
|
||
|
|
repos for processing.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User can enter a date into the date field. This defines the point after
|
||
|
|
which any new PR requests will be tweeted.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User can click the 'Scan' button to identify repos that have had a new
|
||
|
|
PR created that has not been previously tweeted. In other words. Consecutively
|
||
|
|
entering the same date to scan from should only generate tweets for PR's that
|
||
|
|
have not yet been tweeted.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User can see an error message if no date was entered, if it is not a
|
||
|
|
valid date, or if it is a future date.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User can see repos highlighted if a tweet will be generated for them
|
||
|
|
and the 'Scan' button will change to 'Tweet'.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User may deselect a repo by clicking on its checkbox. Doing this will
|
||
|
|
change the button back to 'Scan' and clicking it will repeat the search for
|
||
|
|
repos that have had new PR's (not yet tweeted) created since the scan date
|
||
|
|
entered by the user.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User may enter an new scan date at this point which also changes the
|
||
|
|
button back to 'Scan'.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User may click the 'Tweet' button to send a tweet bearing the following
|
||
|
|
message - `Pull Requst #<pr-number> created for repo <repo name> - <repo description>`.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User can see this tweet send from her Twitter account.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Bonus features
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User does not need to manually enter a scan date. If omitted the scan
|
||
|
|
will resume from the last scan date which must persist across sessions.
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User may enter a custom tweet message
|
||
|
|
- [ ] User repo selections will persist across sessions so they do not have
|
||
|
|
to be reselected each time.

- GitHub offers two API's you may use to access repo data. You may also choose
|
||
|
|
to use an NPM package to access the GitHub API. Documentation for the GitHub
|
||
|
|
API can be found at:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [GitHub REST API V3](https://developer.github.com/v3/)
|
||
|
|
- [GitHub GraphQL API V4](https://developer.github.com/v4/)
|
||
|
|
|
||

Sample code showing how to use the GitHub API's are:

|
You can use this CURL command to see the JSON returned by the V3 REST API for
|
||
|
|
your repos:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
curl -u "user-id" https://api.github.com/users/user-id/repos
|
