WSGI bridge between Pivotal Tracker and GitHub.
Pivotal Tracker allows any external source to be imported into its excellent tracker for schedule tasks. GitHub exposes their Issues via a JSON API so you can consume it and modify it from sources other than their website. This small WSGI application serves as a bridge between the two of them.
The configuration is read out of a JSON file. There's a sample in
config.json.dist in the root of this project. You need to edit it to
reflect your user, and the project you want to handle.[1]_
There's a simple wsgi.py file that runs the server. You can run it using
your favorite WSGI handler (such as mod_wsgi, gevent, or gunicorn).
Inside your project, go Settings > Integrations. At the bottom of the page that loads is the External Tools Integration section. From the Create New Integration... drop-down select Other.
Set the Name to whatever you like (I'm creative and use GitHub). Set the
Basic Auth Username and Basic Auth Password to the github_user and
github_apikey fields in your config.json. The Base URL is optional,
but if set adds links back to GitHub. It should be in the following format:
http://github.com/<user>/<repo>/issues/
The final field is the URL that you've setup the WSGI server to run at. Click Create and you're set.
