Effortlessly monitor and get alerted about new GitHub releases for your favorite projects. This workflow automates the process of fetching and processing release information, keeping you informed without manual checks.
About This Workflow
The GitHub Releases workflow is designed to streamline how you stay updated with software development. It connects to a predefined list of GitHub repositories, regularly checks for new releases, and processes this information. The workflow is triggered on a schedule, ensuring you receive timely updates. It includes logic to identify new releases and prevent duplicate notifications. For any errors encountered during the process, the workflow can send an alert to a designated Slack channel, ensuring you're always aware of potential issues.
Key Features
- Scheduled Monitoring: Automatically checks for new GitHub releases at configurable intervals.
- Multi-Repository Support: Monitor multiple GitHub repositories with ease.
- Smart Release Detection: Identifies and processes only new releases.
