Actions to automate GitHub backlog and Kanban

Versioning

master

Master contains current development work and should not be used by production templates.

Reviewed changes should be tested on master branch before their release to a versioned branch.

v1, v2, ... vn

Versioned release branches. Always use the latest. Extensions are allowed; breaking changes requires creating a new version branch.

All actions should be consumed from these branches.

Development notes

Setup Repox authentication token

1. Generate the npm-repox-token on repox.

2. Add the following line in .npmrc in your HOME folder:

   If npm-repox-token is base64 encoded:

   //repox.jfrog.io/artifactory/api/npm/npm/:_auth = <npm-repox-token>

   If not:

   //repox.jfrog.io/artifactory/api/npm/npm/:_authToken = <npm-repox-token>

   More info: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v9/configuring-npm/npmrc#auth-related-configuration
