Automatically trigger build when new data is published

Open droher opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

There are a few manual tasks I need to do in order to update Boxball when Retrosheet publishes new data. While they don't take very long, they're still a pain and ended up resulting in months of extra delay getting the latest data out. As an alternative:

  • Set up a listener for changes in the latest commit hashes of baseballdatabank and retrosheet repos (and/or new releases)
  • Automatically create a new branch/release draft, update the .env file with the new information, put up a PR, build images, and upload data files to OneDrive
  • When PR is merged, push the images with their appropriate release labels
