Call for maintainers

[rgbkrk]

Hey all!

If you're seeing this you're either:

• Already a maintainer
• Perusing issues as a friendly person

I'd really like to have someone take the mantle on this package as I cannot lead it whatsoever with my current obligations. I've added a lot of maintainers, no one to fully take it on though.

Here's what I'm looking for:

0. Become a maintainer by submitting fixes to the current code base
1. Make a release of the package, announcing it as an issue
2. Make another release, announcing it again
3. I'm transferring the package to you
4. 🎉

🙇 Thanks for your help

Hello there, I'm not a maintainer but I just wanted to tell you that you can fix a small bug while running python code. Just change "python" to "py". It was changed to be like that

I would like to be a maintainer of this code.

Great, in order to complete step 0 you'll need to make a PR and get it merged. Let me know when ready.

@rgbkrk great foundation for a package! I have some improvements I'm interested in making soon and may be open to taking the package over if I find I have bandwidth.

In no particular order:

1. Switch to using Atom's config API to persist saved profiles instead of the serialization API, so profile edits are free. (Add ability to edit saved profile #787)

2. Maybe clean up some of the backlog of issues? Or least close duplicates. 1,027 total at time of writing. (Maybe also get rid of createGitHubIssueLink? 😬)

3. Longer term, I'd love to maybe improve the environment variables profile section by:

• a) letting it be a key/value table (e.g. see Postman query params interface) rather than a single KEY1=value1; KEY2=value2 text box, and
• b) maybe... have a "Secret" checkbox next to each key that
  • (i) switches the value to a hidden password-style field, and
  • (ii) persists the value in the OS keychain using node-keytar. 🤔

Thoughts?

I have like zero time for this project and am fully on VS Code now, so I'm just plain happy to have others on top of this stuff. I'll take a look at your PR @vergenzt and add you on as a maintainer.

[rgbkrk]

Ah, that PR you linked wasn't yours. Please make a PR for any of the areas you're mentioning and we'll have you maintain after that.

@rgbkrk We are interested to maintain this repository. I am the owner of @atom-ide-community. I have sent you an invitation. If you can transfer the repository to @atom-ide-community, we will maintain it.

[rgbkrk]

May want to try the invitation again, I don't see it when I visit https://github.com/atom-ide-community or https://github.com/orgs/atom-ide-community/people, nor do I have an email.

[aminya]

Sorry, I didn't get a notification for your response. I have sent the invitation again. Please let me know if you have received it. @rgbkrk

The previous one expired, but I sent a new one.

[rgbkrk]

Sadly I viewed this 8 days after. 🙄 Apologies. Send again, I'm "back" from the holidays.

[aminya]

@rgbkrk I sent you a new invitation. Happy holidays! 😄

[rgbkrk]

Closed, good luck @atom-ide-community/atom-community

@rgbkrk Thank you 🎉
