Install

• Have a recent nodejs : brew install nodejs

• You posted a review, and someone responded since your last change
• Old reviews are hidden, default 14 days old, configurable in ~/.rbwhat.json

Output

• Repo / Branch in white (linkified)
• Code review URL underlined (linkified)
• Chronological activity list, begins with initial code submission

Power Usage

Pass a JSON argument for temporary config overrides:

• Debug
  • rbwhat '{"debug": true}'
• Link to review summary, not diff
  • rbwhat '{"linkDiff": false}'
• Make the bug a clickable link
  • rbwhat '{"bugUrl": "url/prefix/for/bug/"}'
  • No prefix: rbwhat '{"bugPrefix": ""}'
• View reviews across all groups
  • rbwhat '{"filter": {"to-groups": []}}'
  • The empty array [] is a special wildcard
• See which reviews your coworker is ignoring
  • rbwhat '{"filter": {"to-user-groups": "coworkerName"}}
  • Show all incoming reviews for your coworker, instead of yourself
• View all possible jira api filters here.
• maxHistory limits the lines of history to show for each review, default of 4, which will show the first line and the last 3 lines.
• See ~/.rbwhat.json for all config options.
