Warning

This project is no longer maintained.

Life got busy — work, kids, and the usual chaos. I no longer have the time or energy to keep up with issues, PRs, or updates. PR Monitor has been effectively abandoned.

The code is still here and you're welcome to fork it, but don't expect updates or support.

The Chrome and Firefox extensions will be removed from their respective stores soon.

PR Monitor

License

PR Monitor is a Chrome and Firefox extension that helps you keep track of incoming and outgoing PRs, and notifies you when you receive a pull request on GitHub.

What does it look like?

Here's a quick demo of PR Monitor in action:

How to build it yourself

If you don't trust a random browser extension on the Internet with your GitHub token, that's understandable.

Here's how to build the extension yourself from source:

  1. Install Yarn.
  2. Install dependencies with yarn install.
  3. Run yarn build.
  4. In Chrome, go to chrome://extensions and enable "Developer mode" in the top-right corner.
  5. Click "Load unpacked" and select the generated dist/ directory.

Using PR Monitor with GitHub Enterprise

In order to use PR Monitor with GitHub Enterprise, you'll need to download the source code and set the baseUrl to match your GitHub Enterprise API URL, then compile the code (see below).

It's a two-line change, so don't be afraid! Refer to #769 for an example.
