GitHub Workflows Documentation

This directory contains automated workflows for CI/CD, code quality, and AI-assisted development.

Workflows Overview

1. CI/CD Workflow (ci.yml)

Triggered on: Push to main/master/develop branches, Pull requests

Jobs:

• Lint: Runs ESLint to check code quality
• Build: Builds the application and uploads artifacts
• E2E Tests: Runs Playwright end-to-end tests
• Quality Check: Checks for console.log statements and TODO comments

2. Automated Code Review (code-review.yml)

Triggered on: Pull request opened, synchronized, or reopened

Features:

• Analyzes code changes for security issues (eval, innerHTML, XSS risks)
• Checks for code quality issues (console.log, debugger, any types)
• Provides suggestions for improvements
• Auto-approves PRs if no blocking issues are found
• Adds appropriate labels (needs-changes, ready-for-review, has-warnings)

Review Criteria:

• ✅ Security vulnerabilities
• ✅ Code quality issues
• ✅ Type safety
• ✅ React best practices
• ✅ File size warnings

3. Auto Merge (auto-merge.yml)

Triggered on: PR approval, CI workflow completion

Features:

• Automatically merges PRs when:
  • PR is approved by reviewers
  • All CI checks pass (lint, build, e2e tests)
  • No merge conflicts
  • PR is not in draft
• Automatically deletes the branch after successful merge
• Uses squash merge strategy
• Posts comments about merge status

4. Issue Triage (issue-triage.yml)

Triggered on: New issues opened, issues labeled

Features:

• Automatically categorizes and labels issues:
  • Type: bug, enhancement, documentation, testing, security, performance
  • Priority: high, medium, low
  • AI-fixable flag for automated fixes
• Posts welcome message with issue summary
• Suggests automated fix attempts for simple issues
• Can create fix branches automatically with create-pr label

5. PR Management (pr-management.yml)

Triggered on: PR opened, synchronized, labeled

Features:

• Auto-labels PRs based on changed files:
  • workflows, tests, documentation, ui, styling, configuration, dependencies
  • Size labels (small/medium/large)
  • Type labels from PR title (bug, enhancement, refactor, etc.)
• Validates PR descriptions
• Links related issues automatically
• Posts comments on related issues

6. Merge Conflict Check (merge-conflict-check.yml)

Triggered on: PR opened/synchronized, push to main/master

Features:

• Detects merge conflicts
• Posts comment mentioning @copilot to resolve
• Adds/removes merge-conflict label
• Fails CI if conflicts exist

Labels Used

Automated Labels

• bug - Bug fixes
• enhancement - New features
• documentation - Documentation changes
• tests - Test-related changes
• security - Security issues
• performance - Performance improvements
• needs-changes - PR requires changes
• ready-for-review - PR is ready for review
• has-warnings - PR has warnings to address
• large-pr - PR with many changes
• size: small/medium/large - PR size indicators
• ai-fixable - Issues that can be auto-fixed
• good first issue - Good for newcomers
• priority: high/medium/low - Issue priority
• merge-conflict - PR has merge conflicts
• auto-fix - Request automated fix
• create-pr - Create fix PR for issue

Configuration

ESLint

The project uses ESLint with TypeScript support and React-specific rules:

• File: eslint.config.js
• Strict type checking (warnings for gradual adoption)
• React hooks validation
• Code quality rules

Playwright E2E Tests

• Configuration: playwright.config.ts
• Tests directory: e2e/
• Runs on Chromium browser
• Tests include:
  • Login functionality
  • Navigation
  • CRUD operations
  • Form interactions

Usage

Running Locally

# Run linter
npm run lint

# Fix linting issues automatically
npm run lint:fix

# Run e2e tests
npm run test:e2e

# Run e2e tests with UI
npm run test:e2e:ui

# Run e2e tests in headed mode
npm run test:e2e:headed

# Build the project
npm run build

Triggering Workflows

For Issues:

1. Create an issue - automatically triaged and labeled
2. Add auto-fix label to request automated fix
3. Add create-pr label to create a fix branch

For PRs:

1. Open a PR - automatically reviewed, labeled, and validated
2. Push changes - triggers CI/CD pipeline
3. Get approval + pass tests - automatically merged and branch deleted

Working with AI Assistance

Request automated fixes:

• Comment "@copilot fix this issue" on any issue
• Add ai-fixable label to issues that can be auto-fixed

Get code review feedback:

• Reviews are automatic on every PR
• Address feedback and push changes
• Workflow will re-review automatically

Best Practices

1. Write descriptive PR titles - Used for automatic labeling
2. Link issues in PR descriptions - Enables automatic issue closing
3. Keep PRs focused and small - Easier to review and merge
4. Address all review comments - Even warnings should be considered
5. Test locally before pushing - Run lint and tests
6. Don't commit console.log statements - Will be flagged in review
7. Remove debugger statements - Treated as blocking issues

Troubleshooting

PR Not Auto-Merging

• Check that all CI checks passed
• Verify PR has approval
• Ensure no merge conflicts
• Confirm PR is not in draft mode

Tests Failing

• Run tests locally: npm run test:e2e
• Check test report artifacts in GitHub Actions
• Ensure dev server starts correctly

Linting Errors

• Run npm run lint:fix to auto-fix
• Review errors: npm run lint
• Check eslint.config.js for rule configuration

Contributing

When adding new workflows:

1. Document the workflow in this README
2. Add appropriate error handling
3. Test the workflow on a test branch
4. Ensure proper permissions are set
5. Add labels if needed (they'll be created automatically)

Security

Workflows use GITHUB_TOKEN with minimal required permissions:

• contents: read/write - For reading code and merging PRs
• pull-requests: write - For commenting and managing PRs
• issues: write - For managing issues
• checks: read - For reading CI status

No secrets are required for basic functionality.
