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

CLI Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
--auth	string	process.env.GH_TOKEN or executing gh auth token	Auth token for GitHub from octokit-from-auth.
--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.
--author	string[]	-	Usernames to ignore notifications from when reason is "author".
--botAuthor	boolean	false	Ignore notifications from any authors with "[bot]" in their name
--verbose	boolean	false	Print information while processing notifications

For example, providing all functional 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"],
});
