DevOpsHelper

A minimal client library and command line application for batching automated use of Azure DevOps via its REST APIs.

This is doing it wrong

This project, without a doubt, reinvents the wheel. Azure DevOps already has .NET client libraries and creating a new one atop the REST APIs is philosophically objectionable.

Yet I did it anyway.

  • Auth was very tough to get work with a corporate DevOps instance/project; the REST APIs together with a PAT made this very straightforward
  • The official client libraries expose a ton, but not necessary in the ways I found intuitive or useful

Structure

DevOpsMinClient is a reusable client library that exposes a collection of partial object models (deserialized from REST objects) and operations centralized on a DevOpsClient class.

DevOpsMinClientTests is a collection of tests for the client library.

DevOpsHelper is a CLI using the tools in the client library to do interesting, automation-focused tasks.

Version history

0.0.1 04.06.21 Initial submission. Bare functionality, very little error checking, still a lot of cleanup needed.
