Hey everyone! My name is Jose. I’m a student at Carnegie Mellon University looking to contribute to an open-source project for our Foundations of Software Engineering class and I’d love to help with Pipedream!
My group of four found Issue #20573 and it looks like the perfect size for us. Since it request 6 distinct data tools, we were hoping to divide and conquer it so each group member can take ownership of 1-2 tools.
Quick question on timelines: Our core project requirement is to have our PRs submitted by April 30th, which we are completely on track to do by next week! However, our professor is offering bonus points if our code actually gets reviewed and merged before April 30th.
Does the maintainer team anticipate having the bandwidth to review a few Fitbit actions by the end of the month so we can shoot for the bonus points, or should we just plan on the base grade? (Absolutely no pressure either way, we just want to set our own expectations!)
Let us know if we are good to claim this one and get to work! Thanks!
To get a GitHub issue assigned to you, you typically need to be a collaborator on the repository or have the necessary permissions. Here’s how you can get an issue assigned to yourself: ### If you have access to the repository: 1. Open the issue you want to be assigned to. 2. Look for the “Assignees” section (usually on the right sidebar). 3. Click the gear or edit icon next to “Assignees”. 4. Select your GitHub username from the list. If you don’t see your name, you may not have permission to assign issues. In that case, you can: - Comment on the issue asking a maintainer to assign it to you (e.g., “@maintainer Can you please assign this issue to me?”). - Some repositories use bots (like /assign)—read the repository’s contributing guidelines for instructions. — ### Using Pipedream to automate or interact with GitHub issues If you want to automate this with Pipedream, you can use the Update Issue action to assign an issue to yourself: #### Using the Update Issue action in Pipedream: 1. Search for the GitHub app from the step menu. 2. Select the Update Issue action. 3. Connect your GitHub account. 4. Select the repository and issue number. 5. In the “Assignees” field, enter your GitHub username. 6. Click Test to run the action and assign the issue. — If you need more help or run into permissions issues, let me know!
