🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+
• pnpm
• PostgreSQL database
• GitHub OAuth App

Installation

1. Clone the repository

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd open-info

2. Install dependencies

   pnpm install

3. Set up environment variables Create a .env file in the root directory:

   # Database
   DATABASE_URL="postgresql://username:password@localhost:5432/devnotify"
   
   # NextAuth
   NEXTAUTH_URL="http://localhost:3000"
   NEXTAUTH_SECRET="your-secret-key"
   
   # GitHub OAuth
   GITHUB_ID="your-github-oauth-app-id"
   GITHUB_SECRET="your-github-oauth-app-secret"
   

4. Set up the database

   pnpm db:push

5. Run the development server

   pnpm dev

6. Open your browser Navigate to http://localhost:3000

📱 How It Works

1. Authentication

• Users sign in with their GitHub account using NextAuth.js
• The app requests necessary permissions to access starred repositories and create webhooks

2. Repository Tracking

• The app fetches your starred repositories from GitHub
• For each repository, it creates a webhook to monitor new issues
• If you don't have admin access to a repo, it forks the repository to set up webhooks

3. Issue Monitoring

• When new issues are created in tracked repositories, GitHub sends webhooks to the app
• The app processes these webhooks and identifies users tracking those repositories
