A Firefox Add-on to that shows all of the user's repos and useful quick links.

GitHub Repo Widget

This is a Firefox add-on that creates a widget you can put on your add-on bar. When clicked it lists all of your GitHub repos and quick links to their code, issues, homepage, and wiki.

Links:

• Source: https://github.com/wraithan/github-repo-widget
• Issues: https://github.com/wraithan/github-repo-widget/issues

github-repo-widget's Issues

If contacting GitHub fails fall back to using cache.

If no cache, set content to "Could not contact GitHub."

This is a problem when one's internet goes down.

Preferences

Need to be able to handle them.

Required:

• github user name
• refresh rate

Optional:

• api token (to get private and org repos)

Use password module to get the username of the logged in user?

Dietrich mentioned this. I'll see how this works and how I want to do it.

Show to a designer and get some feedback on it as it is kinda ugly

I have a few designer friends, this shouldn't be too hard.

Publish XPI

Rejected for html injection

1. Your add-on creates DOM nodes from HTML strings containing unsanitized data, by assigning to innerHTML or through similar means. Aside from being inefficient, this is a major security risk. For more information, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XUL_School/DOM_Building_and_HTML_Insertion

Filtering

Based on age, name, whitelist, blacklist, etc.

Configurable sort

Currently this will just be sort by most recent commit.

In the future having this be configurable by things like most watchers, most issues, etc might be desirable.

I can see doing this with arrows at the top maybe or by having a config.

Upgrade to GitHub API v3

This was mentioned a bit in the get current user's repo list.

Currently I am using a library that uses the v2 API. I'll likely want to upgrade this for lasting further into the future without maintence.

Panel loads and appends every time.

If it is going to load each time it should at least replace rather append.

Ideally it would load once, then periodically update and or force update with a button.

Dynamically size the panel

While the current size works for me as I have a lot of repos, for someone with less repos having it smaller would probably be nicer.

new issue button?

toggleable display options

Be able to hide issues, wiki, or home page.

Show all repos, not just the user's

Organization repos might be desirable.

Add wiki to the quicklinks.

No button appears

Running FF 41.0.1 on OSX 10.10.5. Installed, no button appears. Would totally love this add-on if it worked!!

Thanks,
Katie

Add license

Probably MIT

Convert README to rst and update.

Not working since upgrade to FF 14 (Ubuntu Linux)

I really appreciate your plugin and use it all the time. So it was disappointing to find that after upgrading to FF 14 it stopped finding any of my repositories. The plugin installs and everything looks in good order. But when I open the pane to view my repo's, I always get the message "No repositories found" even though my username is entered correctly in the settings. I hope you're able to fix it!

If the repo is a fork, offer to show the parent

Seems legit.

Cache repos

Cache with timeout and refresh button.

This will let the panel load a lot faster.

Minify what I can.

Maybe XPI covers this but minifying the JS and CSS could save me a bit, especially since I am packing 2 JS libs and a CSS framework.

Repos not loading after entering username with capitals.

12:35:37 kwierso | though, nothing's showing up in the panel when I click it after entering a username in the addon manager
12:36:48 kwierso | I see the "loading! loaded:true cache: false" and the "from github!" messages being logged when I open it

The docs should be updated to be about the addon rather than the template.

Not sure what all should be in there.

Show the currently logged in user's repos.

Right now wraithan is hardcoded.

I think the best would be to get authorized by github using the OAuth2 API v3 stuff, baring that asking the user for their username and only showing public repos sounds better than nothing at all.

Tabs?

Mine, Orgs, Watched

Other stuff? Configurable?

Get better AMO icon.

Sorting the repos

I think the first pass of this will just be sort by most recent commit.

In the future having this be configurable by things like most watchers, most issues, etc might be desirable. If that is not implemented when most recent commit sorting is, create a new ticket.
