Hub Issue Support for Projects

[jfritzbarnes]

It would be great if the hub issue command supported a --project / -P option for filtering the returned issues by the project with which they are associated. It would be nice to also be able to obtain the an issue's project via a %p format option (ideally showing both the project name & column).

Thanks for the suggestion! To perform this kind of filtering in bulk would require us to switch to GraphQL and use the projectCards connection on an Issue. Otherwise, I have no idea how we could collect this information using the REST API.

I'll keep this open for now, since it's not a bad idea, but note that this will be hard to implement and is not high on our list of priorities, so it might be a while.

See also #2084 #2193 for examples of ideas that sound relatively simple to add but are currently very tricky to implement.

I'd particularly like to be able to assign (or unassign) an issue's project from the cli.

This doesn't exactly get you want you want, but should get you started

hub api graphql -f query='
{
  repository(name: "repo", owner: "org") {
    project(number: 1) {
      columns(first: 10) {
        edges {
          node {
            id
            name
            cards(first: 100) {
              nodes {
                content {
                  ... on Issue {
                    id
                    title
                    number
                    state
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
