Stale bot not working for my repository
poloka opened this issue · 3 comments
Looks like there are numerous issues in here around the stale bot not working on repositories so I'm throwing my hat into the ring as well. I've created a simple docker image to push to kube and I see transactions accepted from the pull requests but I see no actions taken from the bot against the stale pull requests. I understand the usage of actions
over this project but there are those who are not running GitHub enterprise versions that yet support actions
so would like to see some support on this project.
And to answer the question to whether my .env
contains the correct values for running a probot based application, the answer is 'yes' in that my service launches, the index pages is accessible, and I see successful acceptances in the Advanced settings of my bot for the webhook transactions that are being sent to the application.
Here are my configurations:
Dockerfile
FROM node:lts-alpine
# Let's start with some basic stuff.
RUN apk add --no-cache --update \
curl \
git \
docker
WORKDIR /src
COPY package.json package-lock.json /src/
RUN npm install
COPY . /src
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["npm", "start"]
docker-compose.yml
version: '3'
services:
probot-stale:
build: ./
image: ${IMAGE}:${TAG}
env_file:
- ./.env
ports:
- 3000:3000
volumes:
- ./index.js:/src/index.js
- ./package.json:/src/package.json
- ./package-lock.json:/src/package-lock.json
.github/stale.yml
My stale

Is there no longer support for this repository?
I ended up writing a custom workflow using https://github.com/actions/stale for our project, as the stale bot has not been running consistently for at least 2 months.
Feel free to re-use it. 🙂
(GITHUB_TOKEN
should have enough privileges to comment and close issues.)
Marks issues and pull requests that have not had recent interaction - actions/stale
Thanks @embeddedt but what I'm running into is I'm on GitHub Enterprise Server 2.22.4 so at the moment I cannot use actions. I have my server running finally but because its now a private repository I need it to use a GITHUB_TOKEN
when accessing repos. Is that supported in the current stale configuration or was that only introduced in maybe v10 of probot whereas this project is only on v7 of probot?
