Check if a Github ticket is closed with eslint

Stefan Breitenstein — Tue, 02 Nov 2021 08:35:50 +0000

I see often code like this:

// workaround for https://github.com/vuetifyjs/vuetify/issues/6633

/**
  workaround code for the issue.
**/

but even if the issue is fixed, the workaround remains.

To improve the tracking of closed issues and workaround code in the code based I wrote a small eslint plugin.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/eslint-plugin-gh-issue

So when you a have workaround code like the example above, you rewrite it like this:

// workaround for gh-issue vuetifyjs/vuetify/issues/6633
/**
  workaround code for the issue.
**/

If the issue is closed, eslint will produce a warning and you know that maybe some action can be taken to remove the workaround code.

The plugin itself will not call github api itself. Instead it will call a cloudflare worker, which requests and caches the issues state.

Otherwise I was running in some quota issues by github.

How do you deal with (outdated) workaround code?

Chrome Extension for your Github Gists user scripts

Hi,
wrote a small User Script Manager for Chrome, which is based on Github Gists and VS Code.

Okay it is the monaco editor, which is VS Code based on.

I have sometimes some scripts which I used on a site, like fetch the ticket number on jira.

I saved those scripts as Gist on Github. Copy them from Github and paste it to the dev console bugged me, so i wrote a small extension.

Maybe someone else find it also useful:

Hey DEVs, do you play around with chrome dev tools and inject js on third party sites?

For example I a have gist snippet, which I regularly use to get the current story from our JIRA.

I also have a gist for reporting stuff on for our CI/CD.
Our CI/CD reports are only HTML-Table, and with the script i can collect more advanced reporting stuff.

Do you also inject your custom code into third party websites?

And if so, which functionality do you provide with it.

Are Chrome Dev Tools sufficient, or do you whish you more tooling support?
