# Clone Repos

# Clone Repos Python App
|
||||
|
||||
**Prerequisites**
|
||||
This Python app uses the GitHub CLI (`gh`) to clone all repositories from a specified GitHub user account, excluding repositories that are forked or archived. Repositories are cloned into a directory of your choice.
|
||||
|
||||
- The `gh` command-line tool must be installed, this will allow you to interact directly with Github in your terminal.
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
- Filters out forked and archived repositories.
|
||||
- Clones repositories into separate subdirectories.
|
||||
- Easy to use with simple prompts.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
1. **Python 3.6+**
|
||||
Ensure Python is installed on your system. Check by running:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 --version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **GitHub CLI (`gh`)**
|
||||
Install the GitHub CLI if not already installed. Follow the [GitHub CLI installation guide](https://cli.github.com/).
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Git**
|
||||
Ensure Git is installed. Check by running:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git --version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
1. Clone this repository or download the script.
|
||||
2. Ensure the script is executable:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
chmod +x clone_repos.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
Run the script with Python:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 clone_repos.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Steps:
|
||||
1. Enter your GitHub username when prompted.
|
||||
2. Specify the directory where repositories should be cloned.
|
||||
3. The app will fetch all non-forked, non-archived repositories and clone them into subdirectories within the specified folder.
|
||||
|
||||
## Example
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ python3 clone_repos.py
|
||||
Enter your GitHub username: exampleuser
|
||||
Enter the directory where you want to clone the repos: /path/to/clone
|
||||
exampleuser/repo1 has been cloned into /path/to/clone/repo1
|
||||
exampleuser/repo2 has been cloned into /path/to/clone/repo2
|
||||
All repos have been cloned into /path/to/clone
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Dependencies
|
||||
- `gh` (GitHub CLI)
|
||||
- `git`
|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling
|
||||
- If the `gh` CLI is not installed or configured, the script will notify you.
|
||||
- Errors during repository cloning will be logged to the console.
