Deprecated method of passing the token to Github

[svenwanzenried]

By end of 2019 Github announced that they would deprecate the possibility to pass an access token as query parameter in the URL.

It seems to me (from error messages) that alerthub is trying to do exactly that and is therefore not working.

Please consider changing the mechanism so the token gets passed as HTTP Authorization header: 'token $token'

Hello, apologies for the huge late reply.

I've checked this issue specifically, and to utilize this, RSS feed emitter needs to get custom params so I can pass the token through the headers.

https://github.com/filipedeschamps/rss-feed-emitter/blob/6c7f3e40a63f5f02ed698b6778b2de038f2178d6/src/Feed.js#L172-L197

  /**
   * Perform the feed parsing
   * @private
   * @param  {FeedParser} feedparser feedparser instance to use for parsing a retrieved feed
   */
  get(feedparser) {
    request
      .get({
        url: this.url,
        headers: {
          'user-agent': this.userAgent,
          accept: ALLOWED_MIMES.join(','),
        },
      })
      .on('response', (res) => {
        if (res.statusCode !== RESPONSE_CODES.OK) {
          this.handleError(new FeedError(`This URL returned a ${res.statusCode} status code`, 'fetch_url_error', this.url));
        }
      })
      .on('error', () => {
        this.handleError(new FeedError(`Cannot connect to ${this.url}`, 'fetch_url_error', this.url));
      })
      .pipe(feedparser)
      .on('end', () => {});
  }

If you have alternatives to rss-feed-emitter, please feel free to let me know. Personally, just for this I don't want to maintain a fork, since you can get notifications from github directly (which was not the case when this project was born).
