Freelo Synchronization GitHub action
This action can be used for a one-way synchronization of GitHub issues into Freelo
It will log in as a Freelo user and create tasks/subtasks from created issues. Depending on the set up, it can also update it based on edits made on GitHub (see below).
How to use
Example action.yml showcasing all supported on calls:
name: Run the action
on:
workflow_dispatch:
issues:
types: [opened, edited, closed, reopened, assigned, unassigned]
issue_comment:
types: [created, edited, deleted]
permissions:
issues: write
jobs:
run-my-action:
name: Sync stuff to Freelo
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
- uses: hernikplays/freelo-action@v1
with:
email: ""
api-key: ""
project-id: ""
task-id: ""
Warning
It's okay to omit some of the
onlistening types, but it is needed to keep theissue.openedtype, because it creates the task and the comment to track the task across action runs.
If you want to sync your current repository, run the workflow manually (workflow_dispatch). This will only sync open issues. Make sure to check the available parameters below.
Parameters
| Parameter | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|
| E-mail used to log into Freelo; will be the author of all tasks/comments created by this action! | Yes | |
| api-key | API key to authenticate the user | Yes |
| project-id | ID of the project where tasks will be created | Yes |
| github-token | GitHub token used to create issue comments; you should use the default secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN |
Yes |
| task-id | ID of the task under which subtasks will be created from issues | If tasklist-id is not set |
| tasklist-id | ID of the tasklist where tasks will be created from issues | If task-id is not set |
| create-tasks-for-unknown | Whether to create new tasks for issues without a Freelo comment from actions bot; used only when running the workflow manually | If task-id is not set |
| manually-sync-new-comments | Whether to sync new comments when running the workflow manually | If task-id is not set |
Linking GitHub users to Freelo users
The action will look for a freelo.txt file inside of your .github folder (the one where Action workflows are stored).
In it you can map GitHub usernames to Freelo IDs, one user per line:
hernikplays:14832
john_doe:6586
If the file cannot be found or cannot be correctly loaded, no mapping will be done and the action will simply use the GitHub username in place of the Freelo ID.
Security
Because I have not found any documentation on how Freelo handles sanitization of input, I've included the usage of sanitize-html to sanitize any user input. The only allowed tags are "a","p","i","b","strong".
If you feel like a security issue has been introduced in the code, feel free to report it.
