Update Email Notifications to Include All JACoB Users with Repository Access

[kleneway]

Description

Currently, when a new issue is created, our system sends an email notification only to the issue creator. We need to enhance this functionality to notify all users who have access to the repository and are also registered JACoB users. This will ensure that all relevant team members are informed about new issues, especially those created through integrations like Jira.

Objectives

• Modify /src/server/webhooks/github.ts to:

  • Retrieve all usernames of users who have access to the repository using Octokit.
  • Identify which of these users are registered JACoB users by cross-referencing with the users table in our database.
  • Collect the email addresses of these users from the users table.
  • Send email notifications to all identified users when a new issue is created, not just the issue creator.

Rationale

Since JACoB can create issues from other integrations like Jira, it's important for development managers to be able to update their entire team efficiently. Notifying all relevant team members provides them with:

• Updated information about the new issue.
• Potential plans associated with the issue.
• An easy link to start working on the task using JACoB.

This ensures better coordination and accelerates the development process.

Expected Outcome

• When a new issue is created (including those originating from integrations like Jira):

  • All users who have access to the repository and are registered JACoB users receive an email notification.
  • Emails contain updated information about the issue, any potential plans, and a direct link to the task in JACoB.

• Only users who meet both criteria (repository access and registered JACoB user) receive the notifications.

Additional Notes

• Use Octokit to fetch all users with access to the repository.
• Cross-reference these users with the users table to find matching usernames and obtain their email addresses.
• Ensure compliance with user privacy settings and email preferences before sending notifications.
• Update any relevant tests to cover the new email notification logic. @jacob-ai-bot --skip-build
