Enhancement (Core Feature): Create base GitHub app for Byte
Summary
For interactions with GitHub (e.g., anything other than reading) I think it would be best to create a GitHub app for API interaction. We can create discussions, reply on issues (#28, etc.), and more.
Looking across the available packages, https://github.com/yanyongyu/githubkit seems like the best fit. It utilizes httpx, has Octokit-like levels of feature set, async support, and is kept up to date.
Basic Example
- Create GitHub app
- Process bot requests, interact with library inside of our project, send to GitHub, and vice versa
- Listen to requests from GitHub through web server API calls/webhooks
Drawbacks and Impact
No response
Unresolved questions
Project layout could be tricky. Do we have a fourth segment (on top of src/{byte,web,database}) for the GitHub portion, or can we intermingle in the byte "domain"?
