GitHub Module

The GitHub module (@backstage/cli-module-github) provides a command for creating GitHub Apps in your organization, as an alternative to token-based GitHub integration.

create-github-app

Creates a GitHub App in your GitHub organization. This is an alternative to token-based GitHub integration. See GitHub Apps for Backstage Authentication.

Launches a browser to create the App through GitHub and saves the result as a YAML file that can be referenced in the GitHub integration configuration.

Usage: backstage-cli create-github-app <github-org>
