* Add support for exclusions Paths can be negated to stop searching through the remaining patterns in a the glob list. All changed files tested and at least one matching file will result in a label being added. Fixes actions/labeler#9 * Add support for "AND"-ed matches A new "rich" matcher object can be provided instead of a normal glob. The matcher object has two fields that accept an array of globs: * Globs in "all" must all match every changed file. * Globs in "some" must all match at least one changed file. Combined with negated globs, this allows for a precise control of when labels are applied. * Rename `some` to `any` * Update README

# Pull Request Labeler
|
|
|
|
Pull request labeler triages PRs based on the paths that are modified in the PR.
|
|
|
|
Note that only pull requests being opened from the same repository can be labeled. This action will not currently work for pull requests from forks -- like is common in open source projects -- because the token for forked pull request workflows does not have write permissions.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Create `.github/labeler.yml`
|
|
|
|
Create a `.github/labeler.yml` file with a list of labels and [minimatch](https://github.com/isaacs/minimatch) globs to match to apply the label.
|
|
|
|
The key is the name of the label in your repository that you want to add (eg: "merge conflict", "needs-updating") and the value is the path (glob) of the changed files (eg: `src/**/*`, `tests/*.spec.js`) or a match object.
|
|
|
|
#### Match Object
|
|
|
|
For more control over matching, you can provide a match object instead of a simple path glob. The match object is defined as:
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
- any: ['list', 'of', 'globs']
|
|
all: ['list', 'of', 'globs']
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
One or both fields can be provided for fine-grained matching. Unlike the top-level list, the list of path globs provided to `any` and `all` must ALL match against a path for the label to be applied.
|
|
|
|
The fields are defined as follows:
|
|
* `any`: match ALL globs against ANY changed path
|
|
* `all`: match ALL globs against ALL changed paths
|
|
|
|
A simple path glob is the equivalent to `any: ['glob']`. More specifically, the following two configurations are equivalent:
|
|
```yml
|
|
label1:
|
|
- example1/*
|
|
```
|
|
and
|
|
```yml
|
|
label1:
|
|
- any: ['example1/*']
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
From a boolean logic perspective, top-level match objects are `OR`-ed together and indvidual match rules within an object are `AND`-ed. Combined with `!` negation, you can write complex matching rules.
|
|
|
|
#### Basic Examples
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
# Add 'label1' to any changes within 'example' folder or any subfolders
|
|
label1:
|
|
- example/**/*
|
|
|
|
# Add 'label2' to any file changes within 'example2' folder
|
|
label2: example2/*
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Common Examples
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
# Add 'repo' label to any root file changes
|
|
repo:
|
|
- ./*
|
|
|
|
# Add '@domain/core' label to any change within the 'core' package
|
|
@domain/core:
|
|
- package/core/*
|
|
- package/core/**/*
|
|
|
|
# Add 'test' label to any change to *.spec.js files within the source dir
|
|
test:
|
|
- src/**/*.spec.js
|
|
|
|
# Add 'source' label to any change to src files within the source dir EXCEPT for the docs sub-folder
|
|
source:
|
|
- any: ['src/**/*', '!src/docs/*']
|
|
|
|
# Add 'frontend` label to any change to *.js files as long as the `main.js` hasn't changed
|
|
frontend:
|
|
- any: ['src/**/*.js']
|
|
all: ['!src/main.js']
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Create Workflow
|
|
|
|
Create a workflow (eg: `.github/workflows/labeler.yml` see [Creating a Workflow file](https://help.github.com/en/articles/configuring-a-workflow#creating-a-workflow-file)) to utilize the labeler action with content:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
name: "Pull Request Labeler"
|
|
on:
|
|
- pull_request
|
|
|
|
jobs:
|
|
triage:
|
|
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
|
|
steps:
|
|
- uses: actions/labeler@v2
|
|
with:
|
|
repo-token: "${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
_Note: This grants access to the `GITHUB_TOKEN` so the action can make calls to GitHub's rest API_
