ICS calendar feed server for GitHub releases

Ever wanted your GitHub releases to start showing up in your calendar? Me either, but here we are.

First, install dependencies and build the project

npm install
npm run build

Create a .env file in the project directory with a GitHub PAT, and optionally a secret key:

GITHUB_TOKEN=xxx
SECRET=yyy

Run the service using npm start. To start untappical as a pm2 service, run pm2 start ecosystem.config.json

To see the feed in your calendar application, add a subscription with the following path: http://host:port/users/username

So for example, if the server is running on your local machine on port 8080 and the repository you want to monitor for releases is jessety/releasical, you would use the URL: http://localhost:8080/jessety/releasical

If you set a secret key, all requests without it will be ignored: http://localhost:8080/jessety/releasical?secret=yyy
