# See https://developer.github.com/v3/pulls/#list-pull-requests

# https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/creating-a-personal-access-token

# If using token... 

$ghcred = Get-Credential -Message "Please provide your username and GitHub token" -Title "Github Personal Access Token"
$headers = @{"Authorization"="token $($ghcred.Password | ConvertFrom-SecureString -AsPlainText)"}

# Else if using basic

$ghcredBase64=[System.Convert]::ToBase64String( $([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes($ghcred.UserName+':')) + $( [System.Convert]::FromHexString($($ghcred.Password | ConvertFrom-SecureString)) ))
$headers = @{"Authorization"="basic $ghcredBase64"}

$endpoint = "https://api.github.com/repos/[Owner]/[Repo]/pulls?state=[state]"

$val = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $endpoint -Headers $headers
$json = $val | ConvertFrom-JSON

foreach($obj in $json)
{
    Write-Host "Pull request: #" + $obj.number
    Write-Host "Title: " + $obj.title
    Write-Host "Url: " + $obj.url
    
    $releaseNotes = $releaseNotes + "Body: "
    $obj.body.Split("`n") | ForEach { 
        # ignore comments from issue templates
        if($_.Trim().StartsWith("<!---") -eq $FALSE)
        {
            $releaseNotes = $releaseNotes + $_ + "`n" 
        }
     }   
    $releaseNotes = $releaseNotes + "`n"
    
    Write-Host "User: " + $obj.user.login
    Write-Host ""
}

I need to modify this to be a proper cmdlet... 🚧👷
