​
What it does

create-node-meeting-artifacts is a CLI tool built for the Node.js project. Given a meeting group name, it:
  1. Reads your group’s template files for attendees, observers, and configuration
  2. Fetches the group’s iCal calendar to find the next scheduled meeting date
  3. Searches GitHub for open issues labeled with the group’s agenda tag
  4. Creates a HackMD document pre-filled with the meeting minutes template and agenda
  5. Creates (or updates) a GitHub issue with the meeting details, timezone table, and HackMD link
Both outputs are linked to each other — the GitHub issue contains the HackMD link and the HackMD doc contains the GitHub issue link.

​
