Token Acquisition

If a GitHub auth token is not provided then the script will look in your host environment for: GITHUB_API_TOKEN, FOCUS_DT_GITHUB_API_TOKEN and AUTH_TOKEN before asking for a token.

When asking for a token, focus-dt will use git credential fill to use your configured git credential helper.

UI

Console

When you start focus-dt (and have been properly authenticated), you will see a screen like this:

focus-dt main console

  1. These two tabs indicate the two primary columns in the Pull Request Status Board.
    • The active column is highlighted in blue.
    • The number to the right of the column indicates the number of pull request cards in the column when focus-dt was started (or since the last refresh).
    • If the number is in the format x/y, x indicates the number of pull requests that you have either merged or approved, while y indicates the total number of PRs in the column.
    • The current sort order is displayed to the right of the tabs.
  2. This indicates an activity log since the last reviewed PR.
    • Gray lines indicate PRs that were skipped for some reason, either due to configuration, PR status, or because you've explicitly skipped them until a change is made in the PR (such as when you have provided review feedback and are waiting on the author).
    • The white line indicates the current PR to review.
    • The number [x/y] indicates the current PR in the column (x) and the number of PRs in the column (y), to help keep track of progress.
  3. This section indicates information about the PR including:
    • A link to the PR (this may or may not be clickable depending on your terminal).
    • The author of the PR
    • When the PR was last updated.
    • Tags assigned to the PR (see 4 for more information)
  4. The PR's tags are listed here, with ansi colors matching the tag color on GitHub (if possible).
  5. If present, this section indicates the PR status provided by @typescript-bot.
  6. If owners or maintainers have already reviewed the PR, this section lists the review status and whether the PR has been updated since the review was made (in which case it will be marked [outdated])
  7. This section indicates the key bindings used to interact with focus-dt

Chrome

In addition, focus-dt will attempt to launch a Chrome window with UI automation with a debugger attached. This lets focus-dt reuse the same Chrome tab as you move between PRs. Eventually it may also be used to detect when you request changes to a PR to mark it as "skipped".

focus-dt chrome

NOTE: focus-dt may fail to attach to Chrome if an instance was already running when focus-dt was started. If that happens, focus-dt will likely crash. This is a known issue. Until it has been addressed, it is best to ensure there are no Chrome instances running when focus-dt is started.

Keybindings

The default keybindings are:

  • h — Shows advanced options. These advanced keybindings are always available, but are generally ommitted for brevity.
  • a — Approves the PR. If the PR supports author merging, the UI will advance to the next PR after approval.
  • m — Merges the PR. Depending on configuration, this will approve the PR prior to merging. This option is hidden if the PR supports author merging.
  • s — Skips this PR until the PR changes. This is often used after you have requested changes or if you are waiting on the author. Skipped items will be reviewable again if you use the --skipped option or if over a week has passed since the item was skipped.
  • d — Moves this PR to the end of the queue for the current column. Useful if you want to come back to a review later without marking it as "skipped".
  • q — Quits focus-dt

Advanced keybindings (visible if you toggle the h option) include:

  • alt+a — Configure the default approval option.
  • alt+m — Configure the default merge option.
  • f — Changes the current filters and sort order.
  • ctrl+s — Save the current options and filters.

Advanced keybindings (always hidden) include:

  • F5 — Refresh all columns
