Custom GitHub Action

Brief

GitHub Actions are a powerful tool that allows you to automate code tasks and really anything on a scheduled or triggered basis. One great use is to send notifications to Slack whenever a new Pull Request is made.

Level 1

One of the hooks we can tap into with GitHub Actions is the ability to run some code when Pull Requests are created. We can also grab contextual information about that Pull Request to get details like who created the request.

Create a GitHub Action that logs information about a Pull Request when it’s created.
