From 4b8e067a040d4e8f2b4c565e39b23e7d0df9e163 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Santosh Yadav Date: Thu, 9 May 2024 20:32:20 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Add GitHub action to auto-close inactive issues (#494) Adds a new GitHub action to automatically close issues older than 6 months due to inactivity and comment on them every Friday at 12pm CET. - **Scheduling**: Configures the action to run on a schedule, specifically every Friday at 12pm CET, using a cron job. - **Issue Handling**: Utilizes the `actions/stale` action to automatically mark issues as stale after 180 days of inactivity and then immediately close them. - **Messaging**: Before closing, posts a comment on the stale issues and pull requests to inform contributors of the closure due to inactivity, with separate messages for issues and pull requests. --- For more details, open the [Copilot Workspace session](https://copilot-workspace.githubnext.com/uiuniversal/ngu-carousel?shareId=c8edbcf3-36e5-46a2-902c-43b44013b4d7). --- .github/workflows/issue-management.yml | 20 ++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 20 insertions(+) create mode 100644 .github/workflows/issue-management.yml diff --git a/.github/workflows/issue-management.yml b/.github/workflows/issue-management.yml new file mode 100644 index 00000000..f390aba8 --- /dev/null +++ b/.github/workflows/issue-management.yml @@ -0,0 +1,20 @@ +name: 'Close Stale Issues' + +on: + schedule: + - cron: '0 10 * * 5' # Scheduled to run every Friday at 12pm CET + +jobs: + stale-issue-handler: + runs-on: ubuntu-latest + steps: + - uses: actions/checkout@v2 + - name: Mark and close stale issues + uses: actions/stale@v9 + with: + days-before-stale: 180 + days-before-close: 0 + stale-issue-message: 'This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity for 6 months.
