Team organization only seems to work if the teams are created with ghclass? #130

If I use team_create("DATA485-S22",c("hw1-team01","hw1-team02")) then team_delete("DATA485-S22",c("hw1-team01","hw1-team02")) will work.

But if the team was created using github classroom where students check out a team assignment where they specify what team they are on, I can't seem to delete the teams. It doesn't return an error, it just has no effect. Am I missing something?

I'm not an expert on github classroom and it has been a few years since I last used it but I believe the issue is that it doesn't actually use organization teams, it just adds the students as outside collaborators to the repository. You should be able to use ghclass::repo_remove_user() to drop them from the repository or ghclass::repo_user_permission() to change their access level.

If this is not the case do let me know.

Yea, that works. Okay so it sounds like you don't use the web interface for github classroom to distribute assignments then. ghclass can take care of all of the same sort of class management as sending out that assignment invite link through github classroom does.
