issurge#

Deal with your client's feedback efficiently by creating a bunch of issues in bulk from a text file.

Only supports gitlab for now.

Requires glab.

Installation#

pip install issurge

Usage#

issurge  [options] <file> [--] [<glab-args>...]
issurge --help

• contains arguments that will be passed as-is to every glab command.

Options#

• --dry-run: Don't actually post the issues
• --debug: Print debug information

Syntax#

Indentation is done with tab characters only.

• Title: The title is made up of any word in the line that does not start with ~, @ or %.

• Tags: Prefix a word with ~ to add a label to the issue

• Assignees: Prefix with @ to add an assignee. The special assignee @me is supported.

• Milestone: Prefix with % to set the milestone

• Comments: You can add comments by prefixing a line with //

• Description: To add a description, finish the line with :, and put the description on another line (or multiple), just below, indented once more than the issue's line. Exemple:

  My superb issue ~some-tag:
       Here is a description
  
       I can skip lines
  Another issue
  

  Note that you cannot have indented lines inside of the description (they will be ignored).

Add some properties to multiple issues#

You can apply something (a tag, a milestone, an assignee) to multiple issues by indenting them below:

One issue 

~common-tag
    ~tag1 This issue will have tags:
        - tag1
        - common-tag
    @me this issue will only have common-tag as a tag.

Another issue.
