GitHub Integration

STRUCT can seamlessly integrate with GitHub to automate the generation of project structures across repositories.

Automating STRUCT

Combine GitHub Actions with STRUCT to automate project structure generation in CI/CD pipelines. Trigger the process manually or automatically based on events like pull requests or pushes.

Example Workflow:

name: run-struct

on:
  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  generate:
    uses: httpdss/struct/.github/workflows/struct-generate.yaml@main
    secrets:
      token: ${{ secrets.STRUCT_RUN_TOKEN }}

Best Practices

  1. Secure Your Token: Store GitHub tokens in secrets management tools.
  2. Use Topics for Filtering: Organize repositories with topics to efficiently manage workflows.
  3. Test Locally First: Simulate script actions with --dry-run before executing in a CI/CD environment.
  4. Combine with Other Tools: Use STRUCT with Terraform, Ansible, or Docker for comprehensive project management.
