Niceee!! Thank you so much for this suggestion. I'll go over the integration with redis by taking a look at some articles. Nonetheless, I'll be expecting a feedback from you by next week. |

So I'm currently taking a look at Bee Queue and Bull. I am sooo confused. Although Bee Queue is said to supposedly have a beginner-friendly approach as opposed to Bull. I'm gonna keep updating this discussion as I progress. |

Why not use GitHub Actions for scheduled tasks? I even built an action for exactly this use case: You can also your GitHub app using both a serverless deployment and a scheduled run using GitHub Actions. You can run an action once per hour that does whatever async tasks you have. It's probably the easiest way |

Oh! Dang! I had no idea there was a tool for this exact use case. My original approach was to use GitHub Actions though. Thank you so much for pointing this out, nonetheless, @gr2m! I'll go try the suggestion you made. |

I've been able to spin up something in my repo, but I don't know why it isn't working as it should. Perhaps you can take a look for me? |

I went with @gr2m's approach of using GitHub Actions. Now, after 50 unsuccessful workflow runs, action is passing now. But, the bot doesn't merge the pull request as I intend it to. Perhaps, someone can help me take a look. Here's the link to the repo, again. |

Oh oh! Thank you so much for circling back @oscard0m. I found a workaround for using the merge logic with setTimeout... I've commented the logic since I'm currently facing this new issue here 👇🏽 Kindly take a look 🙏 |

I started building a GitHub app that merges any pull request on schedule with the robot app. But, I am totally stuck at the point where the bot has to merge the pull request when the scheduled date is true.
Here's how it works;
The bot listens to the
issue_comment.createdwebhook event and parses the body of the comment to see if the user or owner of the repository has mentioned the name of the app, the "merge" keyword, and the "time" they want the pull request to be merged.I'm using the
node-schedulerpackage to create a cron-like job and pass my merge function as a callback when the date of the pull request schedule is up.So far so good, the bot responds by creating a comment that notifies that their merge request has been taken into consideration, but it stops at just that.
This is the link to the repository incase anyone wants to help.
