MCBot = Markdown Cleanup Github Bot

Notes

Here's how this thing works:

  • First, you set up a Github bot account - the user that will do your bidding.
  • Next, you create a Github OAuth account as that user. This OAuth application will ask users for various permissions. One of those permissions is the ability to commit to repositories.
  • This is still totally unclear.

Useful: PR request hook (flask server) that comments on PRs from first-time contributors

How it works:

  • Run the flask app somewhere (self-hosted, heroku, google app engine)
  • Install a webhook in your repo that pings the endpoint, and only do on pull request events
