Introduction

Cli-gh is a simple and intuitive command-line tool for managing GitHub repositories, users, issues, and pull requests. It provides secure authentication via GitHub PAT and powerful commands to make managing your GitHub workflow easier.

Installation​

Install cli-gh using your preferred package manager.

npm install -g cli-gh

Usage​

After installing cli-gh, you can start using it to manage your GitHub workflow.

Here are two ways to run the ghc command:

Using npx​

npx cli-gh --help

Run specific commands:

npx cli-gh <--command-->

Using global Installation​

To use ghc commands directly without npx, you need to link the package globally.

Step 1: Clone the Repository​

git clone https://github.com/jpranays/cli-gh.git

Step 2: Navigate to the Project Directory​

cd cli-gh

Step 3: Install Dependencies​

npm install
npm link
info

This command creates a symbolic link in your system's global node_modules directory, allowing you to use ghc anywhere in your terminal.

Verify the Installation​

Run the following command to verify that ghc is recognized:

ghc --help
Troubleshooting
  • Command Not Found: If you receive a "command not found" error after global installation, ensure that your system's PATH includes the directory where global npm packages are installed.
  • Permission Issues: You might need to run commands with sudo if you encounter permission errors during installation or linking.
