Github sponsors

Today my application for Github Sponsors was approved, now what? Ummmm…

Github Sponsors Profile

Well, there is no difference yet, so I will continue contributing to open source projects as I was doing before, but if you want to sponsor someone please try with me hehehe. You can go to my sponsors profile and choose a tier, starting from $3 or any tier that matches with your desire to contribute.

Improving github cli

I use a lot Alfred app to be more productive and make easier my job, one of the Workflows that I use most is the Github Repos which uses a custom script to fetch the repositories when you want to search. Since Github recently released a cli version, I want to make use of this tool, but the github cli doesn’t have a search feature. So I started a Pull Request to add this functionality, so in the next days and based on my time availability, I will be pushing to have that functionality.

This cli is writed on Go, so is an oportunity to put on practice my knowledge on Golang.

A keyword can be supplied as an argument as any of the following formats:

`,
}

}

func searchRepo(cmd *cobra.Command, args []string) error {
	// keyword := args[0]
	return nil
