Star GitHub repos from the command line.
# set the environment variables GH_UNAME and GH_TOKEN

$ ghstar gokulsoumya/ghstar
Starred gokulsoumya/ghstar(Because the command line is awesome, browsers are a hassle, and I'm lazy.)
ghstar is written in Python3, available on PyPI and installable via pip:
pip install ghstar
You must first set the environment variables GH_UNAME and GH_TOKEN to
your GitHub username and token/password. It is recommended to use a
token with public_repo scope
instead of your password though either one works.
