Poule

Description

🐔 Poule is a tool that helps automating tasks on GitHub issues and pull requests. The intent is to implement snippets of behavior, called operations, once and be able to invoke it from three different contexts:

1. As a one-time operation, on the entire stock of GitHub items.
2. As part of a batch job alongside multiple other operations.
3. As part of a long-running daemon, triggered by GitHub webhooks.

1. One-time operations

Example:

$> poule --repository docker/docker --token-file ~/.gitthub-token --dry-run=true dco-check --filter is:pr

2. Batch job

Example:

$> cat dco-check.yml
repository: docker/docker

operations:
    - type: dco-check
      filters: {
          is: "pr"
      }

3. Long running job

Poule can connect to NSQ to receive events for Github issues and pull requests. It will then use this event data to perform the actions listed in a config file.

See config/serve.example.yml for an example configuration.

Operations

Operations are snippets of GitHub automation.

• An operation is idempotent.
• An operation can apply to GitHub issues, pull requests, or both.
• An operation must implement the Operation interface.
• A catalog of builtin operations is provided and documented in the catalog package.
