Course Automation: Upvote other students’ work
Members
Proposal
We would like to integrate a functionality that enables students to upvote other students' work. This would facilitate for students to fulfill the criteria: "The task is praised by the other students of this course", which is currently one of the criteria for "Course Automation".
The action should perform the following:
- When a specific label is included in a PR, create a comment on an issue with details from the Course Automation-folder (README-title and URL to project repository).
- A comment is added to the PR when a comment has been added to the issue. A link to the issue-comment is included.
- This enables people to upvote projects, by inserting :thumbsup: on the comments.
- The upvotes are collected and visualized in a table, in the form of a “Top-list”.
We aim to fulfill the following criteria:
- Deadline before April 6, 2021 (in order to be useful for the course)
- The automation task produces a PR status or issue / PR comment and points to a generated page with valuable additional information
- The automation task is reusable in other courses
- The task runs on a standard platform (GitHub Action)
- The task is praised by the other students of this course
- The code for the task is available and the repo is well documented
