GitHub Repos workflow for Alfred
This is a custom workflow for the Alfred app that lets you search and open a GitHub repository via the GitHub Search API.
Authentication
You'll need to authenticate with a personal access token that you can generate in the GitHub developer settings page or by running the gh-token
command in Alfred.
After you have copied your personal access token, run gh-login <your-token>
to set your personal access token.
Usage
Here's the list of available commands.
Global Search: gh <query>
The example above will search for repositories with the string "hello-world" in their name. Internally this uses the GitHub Search syntax, so you can use modifiers like:
gh hello-world stars:>100
This will search only in repositories that have more than 100 stars.
Please note that this command only searches in the repository name. This means that your query will be appended with the
in:name
modifier. So when you type inhello-world
, the final search query sent will be: "hello-world in:name".
Search your repositories: repo [query]
This command works the same as the previous one (gh <query>
) but it limits the search to your own repositories.
This includes repositories from your organizations as well.
Search Pull Requests: pr [query]
This command searches within the Pull Requests that you're involved in.
Open notifications: gh-notifications
This command just opens your GitHub notification page.
Configuring host for Enterprise
If you're using an Enterprise account, you can call the gh-host <host>
command.
