Github Pull Request Information

Use the Github API to fetch the title and labels of the PR that was just merged.

Use case: Generate a change log for deployment; change deployment method based on label

The following variables are exported to the environment:

• GPRI_PULL_REQUEST_NUMBER: PR number for the current commit
• GPRI_PULL_REQUEST_TITLE
• GPRI_OTHER_PULL_REQUEST_TITLES: Line-break separated list of pull request titles, excluding the current PR
• GPRI_PULL_REQUEST_LABELS: Colon-separated (:) list of github issue labels

How to use this Step

On bitrise.io

Bitrise doesn't support adding or configuring third-party steps directly. In the workflow editor, go to the "bitrise.yml" tab and add the step like this:

- git::https://github.com/philippelatulippe/step-pull-request-information.git@master:
    title: Fetch Pull Request information
    inputs:
    - github_username: philippelatulippe1

Then add a secret variable github_access_token with your github access token, which you can create on the following page: https://github.com/settings/tokens

On the command line

Can be run directly with the bitrise CLI, just git clone this repository, cd into it's folder in your Terminal/Command Line and call bitrise run test.

Check the bitrise.yml file for required inputs which have to be added to your .bitrise.secrets.yml file!

Step by step:

1. Open up your Terminal / Command Line
2. git clone the repository
3. cd into the directory of the step (the one you just git cloned)
4. Create a .bitrise.secrets.yml file in the same directory of bitrise.yml - the .bitrise.secrets.yml is a git ignored file, you can store your secrets in
5. Check the bitrise.yml file for any secret you should set in .bitrise.secrets.yml

• Best practice is to mark these options with something like # define these in your .bitrise.secrets.yml, in the app:envs section.

7. Once you have all the required secret parameters in your .bitrise.secrets.yml you can just run this step with the bitrise CLI: bitrise run test

An example .bitrise.secrets.yml file:

envs:
 - MY_STEPLIB_REPO_FORK_GIT_URL: https://github.com/philippelatulippe/steps-pull-request-information
 - GPRI_GITHUB_USERNAME: philippelatulippe
 - GPRI_GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN: (Create this token here: https://github.com/settings/tokens)
 - BITRISE_GIT_COMMIT: 6dc69d9fbab1ef190a9f6ea40149b35e225c6d77 (the commit sha of your merge commit)
 - GIT_REPOSITORY_URL: git@github.com:someone/some-repo.git 

How to contribute to this Step

1. Fork this repository
2. git clone it
3. Create a branch you'll work on
4. To use/test the step just follow the How to use this Step section
5. Do the changes you want to
6. Run/test the step before sending your contribution

• You can also test the step in your bitrise project, either on your Mac or on bitrise.io
• You just have to replace the step ID in your project's bitrise.yml with either a relative path, or with a git URL format
• (relative) path format: instead of - original-step-id: use - path::./relative/path/of/script/on/your/Mac:
• direct git URL format: instead of - original-step-id: use - git::https://github.com/user/step.git@branch:
• You can find more example of alternative step referencing at: https://github.com/bitrise-io/bitrise/blob/master/_examples/tutorials/steps-and-workflows/bitrise.yml

7. Once you're done just commit your changes & create a Pull Request

Share your own Step

You can share your Step or step version with the bitrise CLI. Just run bitrise share and follow the guide it prints.
