This tool utilizes the Github V3 and V4 API's to make changes to a large number of repositories in an organization.
There was a surprising lack of tools made for manaing a large set of repositories. I presume many exist, and are created like this one originally was, as a one off tool for our own internal use. We're publishing this tool to help aid others who may have similar needs and as a reference for utilizing various GitHub API interfaces (the v3 and v4 API's are used by this application).
Currently there are three primary functions
- archive reposistories
- enable security alerting
- generate a report of existing security alerts (outputs a format suitable for pasting into confluence...)
- copy a repo and enforce default settings (template repos do not allow branch protection, etc.)
- report output improvements
- optimize archive functionality
- add tests
