Getting Started

Prerequisites

Before using GAMA, you need to generate a GitHub token. Follow these instructions to create your token.

Configuration

YAML Configuration

Place a ~/.config/gama/config.yaml file in your home directory with the following content:

github:
  token: <your github token>

keys:
  switch_tab_right: shift+right
  switch_tab_left: shift+left
  quit: ctrl+c
  refresh: ctrl+r
  enter: enter
  tab: tab

Environment Variable Configuration

Alternatively, you can use an environment variable:

GITHUB_TOKEN="<your github token>" gama

You can also make it an alias for a better experience:

alias gama='GITHUB_TOKEN="<your github token>" command gama'

If you have the GitHub CLI installed, you automatically insert the var via:

GITHUB_TOKEN="$(gh auth token)" gama

This will skip needing to generate a token via the GitHub website.

[!WARNING] For security reasons, you should not export your token globally in your shell. That would make it available to any app that can read environment variables. You should avoid committing it to your dotfiles repository, too.

docker run --rm -it --env GITHUB_TOKEN="<your github token>" termkit/gama:latest
