prune-github-notifications

Prunes GitHub notifications you don't care about, such as automated dependency bumps. 🧹

CLI

prune-github-notifications can be run on the CLI with an auth token for notifications access:

npx prune-github-notifications

get-github-auth-token is used to retrieve a GitHub auth token from process.env.GH_TOKEN or executing gh auth token.

CLI Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`--bandwidth`	`number`	`6`	Maximum parallel requests to start at once.
`--reason`	`string[]`	`["subscribed"]`	Notification reason(s) to filter to.
`--title`	`string[]`	`["^chore\(deps\): update .+ to", /^build\(deps-dev\): bump .+ to"]`	Notification title regular expressions to filter to.
`--watch`	`number`	`0`	A seconds interval to continuously re-run this on, if truthy.

For example, providing all options on the CLI:

npx prune-github-notifications --bandwidth 10 --reason subscribed --title "^chore.+ update .+ to"

Running in watch mode to clear notifications every ten seconds:

npx prune-github-notifications --watch 10

Node.js API

npm i prune-github-notifications

import { pruneGitHubNotifications } from "prune-github-notifications";

await pruneGitHubNotifications({ auth: "gho_..." });

If a process.env.GH_TOKEN is set, then the auth parameter will default to it:

await pruneGitHubNotifications();

Node.js Options

Only auth is required, and only if a GH_TOKEN isn't available.

Option	Type	Default	Description
`auth`	`string`	`process.env.GH_TOKEN`	GitHub authentication token with notifications access.
`bandwidth`	`number`	`6`	Maximum parallel requests to start at once.
`reason`	`Set<string>`	`Set {"subscribed"}`	Notification reason(s) to filter to.
`title`	`RegExp[]`	`[/^chore\(deps\): update .+ to/, /^build\(deps-dev\): bump .+ to/]`	Notification title regular expressions to filter to.

For example, providing all options to the Node.js API:

await pruneGitHubNotifications({
	auth: "gho_...",
	bandwidth: 10,
	reason: subscribed,
	title: ["^chore.+ update .+ to"],
});
