Github repos
-
@ultraviolet If I understand correctly, and you have 2FA enabled on Github (I hope you do) then yes, you'd need to create a Personal Access Token to use in place of your password:
-
@marcusquinn yeah I do have 2fa enabled but even with the token the manually added repos are still not appearing.
-
This appears to be an app bug then, can you please file an issue at https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/releasebell/-/issues with ideally steps to reproduce (like the github repo for example)
-
@ultraviolet I was about to say looks like an App issue and to contact their support, then saw it's a Cloudron App
Best defer to the creators. -
@nebulon sure will do

@ultraviolet
Just star the repos in Github, then they are automatically added to ReleaseBell. -
As @Hillside502 pointed out, does starring the repo not make it appear in the list? Out of curiosity, why are you are trying to add it manually?
-
@girish it does appear if I star it. I don't always want to star a repo, sometimes I just want to track releases as I have two accounts one personal one for work.

@ultraviolet
At first, I was thinking:-
KISS principle - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principlebut then, I thought @girish how about ReleaseBell reacting to either of:-
- starred
- watching -- in this case, triggered by a release
-
Back in the day we used to use an external service to track all the products. I forgot what it's called but it shutdown. We made releasebell as a replacement for that service. That other service used to simply track starred repos. Just explaining why Releasebell is the way it is right now. It was a simple clone.
