Drill Sergeant

Keep track and get notified when github pull requests become stale. This is particularly useful for teams utilizing the github flow. Drillsergeant will send a notify of stale PRs via:

• Email
• Slack
• Github (attaching a stale label to the PR)

Install

npm install -g drill-sergeant

Run

This is intended to be run via a crontab or other scheduled task runner.

A typical command line run:

$ GITHUB_TOKEN='<your token here>' drillsergeant -e "youremail@address" -r "user/repository,user/repository2"

If you want it to label the PR as stale:

$ drillsergeant -l -r "user/repository"

If you want to send it to slack:

$ drillsergeant -r "user/repository" --slack-webhook https://your-slack-channel-webhook-url

Configuration

The environment variable GITHUB_TOKEN must be set with a valid github oauth token in order to read the pull requests. For attaching labels, the token needs to have write access to the repo being scanned.

Options

See drillsergeant -h for all available options.
