Can I use auto-assign bot with Github teams?

[mrlubos]

Hi! I am just exploring the auto-assign bot and I see I can configure groups to assign for reviews. However, these have to be defined in the config file. Since we already manage our groups in Github teams, would it be possible to reference only the Github team names in the config? Or is this an already existing feature? Thanks!

Hi, @mrlubos! Thanks for waiting. The auto-assign bot is not supported to assign reviewers to the pull request using GitHub teams now. This topic has been discussed in #39 and #71.

Currently, It is hard to spend time on improving this tool. I have no plan to implement the feature. But improving features by creating the PR is always welcome.

Thanks for the reply @kentaro-m!

Is there any recommended workaround? For example, automatically generating the configuration file?

If not, we might look into creating a pull request. Would you have any pointers how to go about implementing this functionality within the auto-assign bot?

Thank you!

Hi everyone! I created a pull request adding this functionality in #120, I would appreciate your feedback!

Are you guys sure whether it's properly working? Because when i try, the log goes okay, but no reviewers are added to the reviewers list on the right side of the PR page.

Hey @matheusnascgomes, nice catch! 😃 Yes, it doesn't appear to be working for me either, I will need to look into why that is.

I just tried this within our team and it does not work. I tried the @OrgName/team-name and the /team-name syntax in the auto_assign.yml file, neither one added the teams as reviewers. .github/auto_assign.yml:

addReviewers: true

reviewers:
    - /team-a
    - /team-b

numberOfReviewers: 0

We also use a .github/CODEOWNERS file, and it works fine, the owner team is added for review, and their approve is required for the merge.
