I'm looking for a way to integrate Eclipse/Mylyn with github's project-issues.

I'm aware of the Mylyn-github-connector and the smilebase project, but - unless I'm totally wrong - both connectors only allow to associate existing tasks with github commits. There is no option to use github issues as a task repository.

I also found this slightly related question / answer, but besides the fact that the provided link is dead it seems to focus on the connector itself (not the task repository)

Thanks for answering,

Jan

This is the connector you want: org.eclipse.mylyn.github (it is a fork of the one posted in the related question). I have been using it and it works great.

  • How do you get it to store mylyn contexts? Seems useless without that ability. – James Moore Jun 23 '13 at 15:31
  • This project predates the new GitHub API. Instead of using this one, prefer the new connector that is maintained as part of EGit (referenced on this page) – David Green Jul 11 '13 at 21:47

The GitHub Mylyn Connector is now an official Eclipse project under EGit.

The 1.0 release was part of Indigo and is available from the EGit update site under the Collaboration category:

1.1 nightlies are also available with support for pull requests:
