assign_editor responder with "if" conditional on issue template

[mpadge]

This is slightly different to the conditional welcome responder of #23. We have a few different values for submission-type variables which we need to build some conditional logic around, primarily to invoke two different response messages dependent on these variables. Something like:

if:
  value_matches:
    submission-type: "Standard|Estándar" # Can we just grep-or values like that?
   message: "First message"
if:
  value_matches:
    submission-type: "Stats"
   message: "Second message"

And then it's probably good to add

if:
  value_matches:
    submission-type: "Pre-submission|pre-envio"
   message: "Reject message"

@xuanxu Do each of those need a separate responder, or can all three if clauses be combined within a single responder?

@xuanxu @mpadge what's needed here?

[mpadge]

Ability for the command @ropensci-review-bot assign <them> as editor to respond with different messages dependent on a template variable. (Specifically Spanish and English messages for those respective templates.)

[maelle]

@mpadge is this only for this command? Or potentially more?

[mpadge]

It will also be generally useful in approve responders for the same reasons, as well as in approve responses to Stats submissions, which need to be different from standard approve responses. So yes, definitely more.

This require to have system in place to have multilingual templates/messages. Issue created upstream: https://github.com/openjournals/buffy/issues/57

@xuanxu any progress here? Absence of this ability is currently leading to a fair bit of failure-prone manual work, so would be good to have implemented, if possible. Thanks

[xuanxu]

any progress here?

Not really, sorry. There have been too many things with higher priority. I'll see if I can fit it in sometime soon, but can't make any promises right now.

[mpadge]

@xuanxu yet another ping on this issue. We have now started receiving and processing Spanish-language submissions, and it would be great to have the bot also reply in Spanish. Any possibility of this being implemented soon?
