  • steampipe-plugin-github

    Use SQL to instantly query repositories, users, gists and more from GitHub. Open source CLI. No DB required.

  • collaborators

    Print a summary of the permissions of all the repositories in a GitHub org

  • IME, the problem with the GraphQL API is that it does a poor job of indicating where permissions came from, and you have to fall back to bad heuristics.

    For example, if team="company" has "READ", and team="company/dev" has "WRITE", and Bob is in team="company/dev" but not team="company", then Bob will have both "READ" and "WRITE" because of his membership in team="company/dev"; the API will give no indication that the "READ" indirectly came from team="company".

    Anyway, here's my audit script for such things: https://github.com/datawire/collaborators

  • terraformer

    CLI tool to generate terraform files from existing infrastructure (reverse Terraform). Infrastructure to Code

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
