Github Unnotifier
So I work in a monorepo, to which I have elevated access. This means I get a LOT of work associated notifications on Github because approval requests land on my team's desk. However, since we are a team, many of these notificaitons don't require that I action them.
I would like to not be notified at all, but Github's notification filtering features are non-existent so I'm doing this the hard way.
This script at present does the simple thing - it looks through notifications for activity and tries to identify trivially ignorable notifications which:
- Relate to a closed (merged or abandoned) PR
- Does not have an outstanding review request against EITHER the user OR one of the user's teams (someone else already reviewed it) AND is in an org in the
org_shitlist
Note that the org_shitlist serves as a gate to allow you to opt notifications from organizations into auto-dismissal, rather than auto-dismissing anything you aren't a reviewer on from anywhere as that covers many other potentially desirable notifications too.
Usage
You're gonna need a config.toml like
[gh-unnotifier]
api_key = "your secret value"
org_shitlist = [
"your-employer-here",
"their-oss-group-here",
]
And then you can bazel run //projects/gh-unnotifier -- maintain --config $(realpath config.toml).
