Github Label Maker

Add Github labels automatically.

It's very useful when using Zenhub.io or managing a open source project that you tame the issue beast with labels. But adding multiple labels across different projects is cumbersome. BUT NOT ANYMORE.

Deps

Please have go installed
GoLang

Install

go get github.com/ecasilla/github_labelmaker
