Give thanks (in the form of a GitHub ★) to your fellow Go modules maintainers.
# About
GoThanks performs the following operations
- Sends a star to Go's repo (github.com/golang.go)
- Reads your go.mod file and sends a star to every Github repository that your app/library depends on
This is a simple way to say thanks to the maintainers of the modules you use and the contributors of Go itself.
# Credits
GoThanks is a Go port of symfony/thanks implemented by Nicolas Grekas (nicolas-grekas) for PHP.
Original idea by Doug Tangren (softprops) for Rust.
# Installation
```go
$ go get -u github.com/psampaz/gothanks
```
# Usage
In order to run GoThanks you need to have a valid [Github Access Token](https://help.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line) with `public_repo` scope.
You can pass the token as an argument to GoThanks or store it in an environmental variable named GITHUB_TOKEN.
Inside the folder where your go.mod lives run:
```go
$ ./gothanks -github-token=xxxxxx
```
or
```go
$ export GITHUB_TOKEN=xxxxx
$ ./gothanks
```
## Docker
Run
```
docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/home psampaz/gothanks:latest -github-token=xxxxxx
```
or
```
docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/home --env GITHUB_TOKEN=xxxxxx psampaz/gothanks:latest
```
