Hydrazine

A set of client-side scripts for interacting with Launchpad.

bugclient is a text-mode interactive controller for Launchpad bugs:

hydrazine(edge) #526078> bug 526117
duplicate bug: 526117: want a way to propose merge of a new imported/mirror branch
  affects launchpad-code                                      New Undecided
  tags: 
hydrazine(edge) #526117> duplicate 526116
marking 526117 as a duplicate of 526116
    "want a way to propose merge of a new imported/mirror branch"

lp-attach attaches a file to a Launchpad bug from the command line:

lspci -vvnn | lp-attach 123123123

capture-bug-counts.py prints some statistics about a project.

feed-pqm submits approved merge proposals to PQM. (It may not be suitable for all pqm-using projects.)

check-membership and scan-merge-proposals check that proposed merges are by people who've agreed to the Canonical Contributor Agreement.

iLaunchpad-shell

Customized ipython shell which makes testing and developing around the launchpad API real fun.

See this video for a small demo.

ssh-import-lp-id

This utility will securely contact Launchpad.net and retrieve one or more Launchpad user's public keys, and append these to the current user's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file. It is quite useful in UEC and EC2 environments if you want to give another user access to the instance.

       ssh-import-lp-id [launchpad_id_1] [launchpad_id_2] [launchpad_id_3] ...

The Kraken

A tool for releasing software via Launchpad.
