Please invite me to the GitHub Community Organisation

[yash982000]

Invitation will be sent for the GitHub Organisation soon. We look forward to having you part of our community :nerd:

Don't forget after accepting to make it public so it appears on your github profile for everyone else to see, you can do this by finding your name in the github organisation list and change the dropdown to public https://github.com/orgs/EddieJaoudeCommunity/people

Tips for practicing:

• Customise your GitHub profile, here is a live stream on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cT6GXCuS0Zo
• Practice repo, instructions how to add your name to the README in the README https://github.com/EddieJaoudeCommunity/hacktoberfest-practice
• Remember contributing to open source is not just about code, its about collaboration, communication and adding value

I hope that helps

@mikeysan , @eddiejaoude I didn't receive any invitation. Are you guys yet to do it or is that also gonna be through bot?

[BOLT04]

Hi @yash982000 😃, don't worry if you don't receive an invitation right away. Please wait until one of them is available 👍

[yash982000]

@BOLT04 Thank you so much for your response. No hurries at all. I just thought it was also to be done by a bot.

[BOLT04]

it would be awesome if we could automate and make a bot do the invitation. I think there might be an issue for that, but we haven't done it 😅

[eddiejaoude]

Thanks @BOLT04 for clarify 👍

FYI ... I am the bot 😂

Sending the invitation now 🤓

@BOLT04 @eddiejaoude On a serious note. I would love to try to automate this. Just need to configure github-actions with some logic. Can we give a try?

[BOLT04]

@yash982000 awesome initiative 👍. Have a look at this repo: https://github.com/EddieJaoudeCommunity/gh-action-community.
You can open an issue there with your idea and start working on it 👍, but I'd also like @eddiejaoude's opinion since he knows more about GitHub Actions 😃

[eddiejaoude]

I remember trying to have a look before and I think there was some complication but I can not remember what it was. I should have documented it 🤦‍♂️ .

Sure have a look @yash982000 and let us know what you find. Here are some of my notes off the top of my head...

• We have access to @actions/github
• Which gives us access to https://octokit.github.io/rest.js/v18/
• So we might be able to do?

octokit.orgs.createInvitation({
  org,
});

@eddiejaoude @BOLT04 That's great. I have read a couple of articles too which shows how to use Github API for this. I will definitely do deep dive into this and make this work here. Need a bit time since all the other things are going to. I have created an issue. It would be great if you can assign it to me.
