Update my GitHub profile

Refreshing the token

GitLab doesn’t support unexpiring tokens anymore. Every now and then, you’ll need to create a new token. It’s a reminder of the fun to update such a token.

1. Create a new token PAT in GitLab: https://gitlab.com/nfrankel/nfrankel.gitlab.io/-/settings/access_tokens

2. Name it something relevant, e.g., GitHub Profile access

3. Give it at least read_repository scope

4. Connect to the Raspberry Pi

5. Update the BLOG_REPO_TOKEN value in /opt/github-actions-runner/nfrankel-update/.env

6. Restart the service:

   • sudo ./svc.sh stop

   • sudo ./svc.sh start

TODOs

1. Add a script to update the token automatically

2. Dockerize the client part
