Doesn't pick up latest release

[potemkin_ai]

I've added https://github.com/element-hq/synapse manually for the monitoring at 1.120.2 and it picked up no new releases ever since (and the latest is v1.128!)

According to the logs, everything is synced Ok

Could you please, help with that?

Can you put a debug around https://git.cloudron.io/packages/releasebell-app/-/blob/master/backend/tasks.js?ref_type=heads#L166 to figure out why it's not finding any releases?

[potemkin_ai]

@joseph apologies, I wish I had time for that

I can enable debug mode, but I can't see no configuration file - happy to follow some reasonable instructions to enable it (I can see debug on the code)

Just tried this for the same repo and the logs show that it did pick up the releases:

Apr 29 15:19:42 releasebell/tasks syncReleasesByProject: [element-hq/synapse] type github_manual start sync releases, notifications are enabled. Last successful sync was at 1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z +57m
Apr 29 15:19:44 releasebell/tasks syncReleasesByProject: [element-hq/synapse] found 754 new releases +2s
Apr 29 15:19:45 releasebell/tasks syncReleasesByProject: [element-hq/synapse] successfully synced +1s

If you star that repo in github, does it work then?

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon looks like not...

[nebulon]

hm since I can't reproduce this myself, we kinda need as much info like logs as possible to take some educated guess for your case. Maybe you hit some rate-limits against github api or I don't know.

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon it's not that I'm using github automations, so rate limit is unlikely...

I understand the necessity for the logs though - that's why I asked how I can enable debug mode - to get them

Is there some way to enable debug mode to fetch the logs?

[nebulon]

so the package already runs with export DEBUG="releasebell*" by default. So if the logs look the same for the starred project then, I am also not sure how to proceed. You could set the app in recovery mode and add more debug() calls in the code itself.

Edit: the project itself is at https://git.cloudron.io/packages/releasebell-app where also the code is, happy to accept contributions and fixes there of course.

[potemkin_ai]

Star based monitoring works!

I'm not using github stars, so I'm fine leaving with them - just one more question then: how do I remove a manually added entry?

[nebulon]

Good question, seems like I didn't actually implement removal of those! Maybe I get around over the weekend, or otherwise PRs are welcome for that project

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon I wish...

Guess I will end up removing it from the database, if it will be disturbing me too much

Regardless - thank you for the tool!!
