Sync GitHub Followers

Sync your GitHub followers! Automaticlly follows back any one following you, and removes people that unfollow!

Uses the GitHub CLI tool to make requests to the GitHub API.

Install globally to run anywhere:

npm i -g @spongex/gh-sync-followers

For this script to run you need to grant the "user" scope to GitHub CLI. Run the following from the command line:

gh auth refresh -h github.com -s user

Once GitHub CLI is set up run:

npx gh-sync-followers

The script will create a configuration file located in your operating system's local app storage. This location is determined using the os-appdata-path module.
