# About

`Tender` aims to **ease maintenance** of github open-source

projects by reducing the amount of boring tasks.

Please note that the project is in its early stages of development and is not

yet ready for production use. Still, feel free to look at it, maybe you can

join us and avoid writing your own tool that aims to do the same.

Try running `tender` on your repository because by default it

will no do any modifycation.

Tender can be used manually as a command-line tool or on CI/CD pipelines, like

github actions.

Example of activities performed:

- assure **required labels** are used on pull-requests

- create and update **release notes** based on merged pull-requests

- maintain a list of standardized labels

## Usage

## Configuration

By default the file tries to load the configuration files from local reposity

and falls back to "meta" repository from the same organization. If these are

also missing it will load them from [pycontribs/meta](https://github.com/pycontribs/meta/tree/master/.github)

repository.

Recognized config files:

- [`.github/lables.yml`](https://github.com/pycontribs/meta/blob/master/.github/labels.yml)

- [`.release-drafter.yml`](https://github.com/pycontribs/meta/blob/master/.github/release-drafter.yml)

The file format is the same as the original tools, as tender is seen as a

drop-in replacements for these.

## Background

The project was inspired by existing tools like:

- [Release Drafter](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/release-drafter) --

  compatible configuration

- [GitHub Labeler](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/github-labeler) --

  compatible configuration

Because these tools had very limited use and almost never had a dual mode

command line and github action, we decided to create one that can take care of

all tasks related to maintenance of open-source projects, one that can

optionally keep configuration in a single place, a meta repository.
