const { Octokit } = require('@octokit/core');
const dotenv = require('dotenv')

dotenv.config()

const octokit = new Octokit({
    auth: process.env.ACCESS_TOKEN,
});

async function getCards(column) {
    const { data } = await octokit.request('GET /projects/columns/{column_id}/cards', {
        column_id: column,
        per_page: 100,
        mediaType: {

async function createCard({ column, note }) {
    const { data } = await octokit.request('POST /projects/columns/{column_id}/cards', {
        column_id: column,
        note,
        mediaType: {
            previews: [

    cards
        .map((card) => createCard({
