Summarize Issues

GitHub Action that generates a Markdown summary of the issues in a repo.

See a full example at https://github.com/brcrista/summarize-issues-test.

Example

name: Generate issues report

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: 0/50 * * * 1-5

env:
  OUTPUT_FILE_NAME: IssuesReport.md
  COMMITTER_EMAIL: [email protected]
  COMMITTER_NAME: github-actions
  COMMITTER_USERNAME: github-actions

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2

    - uses: brcrista/summarize-issues@v4
      with:
        title: 'My Issues Report'
        configPath: '.github/workflows/issues-report-config.json'
        outputPath: ${{ env.OUTPUT_FILE_NAME }}
        token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

    - name: "Commit if any changes were made"
      run: |
        git remote add github "https://$COMMITTER_USERNAME:${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}@github.com/$GITHUB_REPOSITORY.git"
        git pull github ${GITHUB_REF} --ff-only
        if [[ `git status --porcelain` ]]; then
          git add ${OUTPUT_FILE_NAME}
          git config --global user.email $COMMITTER_EMAIL
          git config --global user.name $COMMITTER_NAME
          git commit -m "Update $OUTPUT_FILE_NAME"
          git push github HEAD:${GITHUB_REF}
        fi

where issues-report.json looks like:

[
  {
    "section": "Section with green status",
    "labels": ["incident-repair", "short-term"],
    "threshold": 10
  },
  {
    "section": "Section with yellow status",
    "labels": ["needs-triage"],
    "threshold": 2
  },
  {
    "section": "Section with red status",
    "labels": ["bug"],
    "threshold": 1
  }
]

This will commit a Markdown file named IssuesReport.md that looks like this:

### My Issues Report
