development: difficulty forking sources using a VM

Open kounelisagis opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Getting an Error: no DISPLAY environment variable specified when trying to fork all required repos using a VM by running (reana) $ eval "$(reana-dev git-fork -c ALL -b firefox)" (source)

Tried to solve it by configuring X11 forwarding but got errors like "Error: cannot open display: localhost:0.0".

Solved it by mannualy forking all repos. It would be useful to provide that functionality without the need of a display, maybe through GitHub API.

Hi,

Could you please tell us more about your use case, so that we can understand better how we can help you?

In any case, a possible solution would be to use GitHub CLI to fork the repositories, instead of using a browser. What do you think about this?
