deleteRepos

Code

const axios = require('axios');
const path = require('path');
const { readPropertiesFile, requireHttpsUrl, resolveSecureUrl } = require('../essential');

async function deleteRepos(org, repos, token) {
    const filePath = path.join(__dirname, 'properties', 'api.properties');
    const config = readPropertiesFile(filePath);

    if (!config.repospecificurl) {
        throw new Error("Repository-specific URL is missing in the configuration.");
    }

    requireHttpsUrl(config.repospecificurl, 'repospecificurl');

    try {
        const deleteRequests = repos.map(async repo => {
            const replacements = { organization: org, repository: repo };
            return await axios.delete(resolveSecureUrl(config.repospecificurl, replacements, 'repospecificurl'), {
                headers: {
                    Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
                    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
                },
            });
        });

        return await Promise.all(deleteRequests);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error('Error deleting GitHub repos:', error);
        throw error;
    }
}

module.exports = deleteRepos;

Usage

/*
    @param org = String
    @param repos = Array
    @param token = String
*/
const { deleteRepos } = require('jwz/github');

const org = 'your-org-name';
const repos = ['your-repoA', 'your-repoB'];
const token = 'your-token';

const res = await deleteRepos(org, repos, token);
console.log(res);

Explanation

The deleteRepos function is a utility for programmatically deleting GitHub repositories within an organization. It reads configurations from an external properties file and uses Axios for API requests. Here's a breakdown:

• Parameters:
  • org: The name of the GitHub organization from which the repositories will be deleted.
  • repos: An array of repository names to be deleted.
  • token: A GitHub personal access token for authentication.
• Logic:
  • Reads the repository-specific URL from a properties file.
  • Checks the endpoint uses https, and throws before the token is sent if it does not.
  • Constructs a delete request for each repository using the GitHub API.
  • Executes all delete requests concurrently using Promise.all.
  • Handles and logs any errors encountered during the process.
• Output:
  • An array of responses for each delete request, where each response contains the result of the deletion.
