Automated Salt submission via GitHub Action #1898

Open lukasc-ubc opened 1 month ago

lukasc-ubc commented 1 month ago

Hi Matthias,

I have a GitHub Action that automatically publishes to PyPI: https://github.com/SiEPIC/SiEPIC_EBeam_PDK/blob/master/.github/workflows/python-publish.yml

I am wondering if it would be possible to automate the submission to your Salt server, via the https://sami.klayout.org/register page? The URL can be used to pre-fill the form, but is there a way to have the button get pushed automatically via curl or some other method?

I would imagine receiving the confirmation email, which would be simple to click on it to accept.

thank you

Hi Lukas,

that should be possible. The request is a simple GET.

With user = "myself", mail = "xzy@abd.de", provider = "Github" (==5), Project URL = "blabla" and "yes I agree to the terms" this URL is:

https://sami.klayout.org/register_request?user=myself&mail=xyz%40abc.de&provider=5&url_path=blabla&agree_terms=1

It's probably not wise to disclose this publicly, but these are details that you can easily trace for example with FireFox's network monitor.

I cannot guarantee stability of this API. For example, the provider codes are basically database IDs and may change.

I got it working. Thank you very much. All I had to do is click on the approval email that your system sent.

For future reference, here is my action file: https://github.com/SiEPIC/SiEPIC_EBeam_PDK/blob/master/.github/workflows/python-publish.yml
