We need to create an outline of the demos that we have or plan to have. This outline can be used to flesh out this project revamp.

The general steps to this will be:

• Create a docs folder
• Create a README.md file that lists each demo and gives a brief overview

Parent: #79

Add a comment with /joke as the message and get a joke

Create outline for an Advanced GitHub Actions Talk

• Add dependebot.yml file to keep actions up to date

Issue 6

I need to create a script to automate repository settings for demos, including:

• OIDC connections
• Environments and environment rules
• Branch protection rules
• Enable/disable initial workflows

It is time for a revamp of the GitHub Actions Presentation Repo. This revamp is overdue for a variety of reasons, including:

• New features have been added to GitHub Actions that are not represented as demos yet
• Workflows and actions are out of date and should be updated
• Demos are spread across several repositories. While this can be necessary depending on the demo, there is opportunity to consolidate more of the demos in this repo
• Automation needs to be created to reset the repo and its settings to a clean state at the beginning of a demo. This ensures the environment is not in a "wierd" state

We may make use of GitHub Projects to track the work that needs to be done.

This issue will serve as the main "epic" that will drive any new issues, such as "features" or "tasks".

To Do

• Add build status light to build and release demos - travel light
• Add code scanning to build and release demos
• Add steps for working with GH CLI for build and release demos
• Confirm composite action and reusable workflow work correctly
• Custom Actions - Dad Joke
  • Identify the repos that related to those
  • Add workflow to this repo that uses the dad joke, that others can run
• Confirm "star the repo" demo works with travel light
• Debugging workflows
  • Adding debugging variables
  • Nektos/ACT

General

• Create release once all demos are working, of the repo in the "start" state
• Make a list of things to check in the settings and actions tabs before starting the demo
  • Disable appropriate workflows
  • Disable appropriate branch protection rules
  • Open tabs to Azure Portal and OIDC config
  • Delete any existing branches

Stretch Goals

• Issue Ops demo to create a new repo
• Create Issue Ops Automation to configure this repo to start a demo
  • Basically do all the stuff in our check list

• Environment input for manual workflow trigger
• respository_dispatch event demo
• Using a docker container in the "uses" statement
• Writing errors and warnings to log file
• Masking output in the log file
• Use the github-script action and core.summary to create fancy job summary
• Setting secrets and vars using gh
• semver vs calender versioning

Create an outline that shows the slides and demos to use for an Intro to GItHub Actions talk

TO DO TO CLOSE THIS ISSUE

• Archive previous action repo talks
• Finish creating demo steps

Used with demo 1 of Advanced Actions
