Why teams connect GitHub and RavenDB

Mirror GitHub's data into RavenDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like GitHub through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in RavenDB.

Stacksync mirrors Repositories, Issues, Pull Requests, Commits from GitHub into Time series, Data subscriptions, Documents, Collections in RavenDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into GitHub, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Mirror repository, PR, and workflow-run data into a Postgres database for engineering-metrics reporting.
  • Sync organization and team membership with an identity or HR system to automate access reviews and offboarding.
  • Stream RavenDB document changes into Postgres or a warehouse via data subscriptions for SQL analytics.
  • Sync operational documents such as orders and profiles between RavenDB and a CRM so business teams see application data.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read GitHub with a query

Records from GitHub are ordinary rows in RavenDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate GitHub from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in RavenDB and Stacksync propagates the change into GitHub, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between GitHub and RavenDB

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

GitHub objects RavenDB objects
Labels and Milestones Classification fields mapped to statuses and sprints in external trackers. Data subscriptions Server-side change feeds that push matching documents to consumers
Repositories Top-level containers whose metadata and settings syncs read to scope other objects. Documents JSON records, the primary unit read and written during sync
Issues Synced two-way with project trackers and support tools, including labels and assignees. Collections Groupings of documents by type, mapped to tables in relational targets
Pull Requests Review state, status checks, and merge status feed engineering dashboards and workflow tools. Indexes Static and auto indexes used to query documents for filtered reads
Commits Read-only history used to link code activity to tickets and releases. Attachments Binary payloads stored with documents, handled separately from the JSON body
Releases Tagged versions synced into changelogs, CRMs, or customer-notification systems. Revisions Historical versions of documents, useful for audit-oriented replication
