GitHub Actions: Rename "Add Update Label to Issues Weekly" to "Schedule Friday 0700"

[macho-catt]

Overview

As a member of the backend team, github actions are much more maintainable and easier to understand if they are structured based on triggers and functionality. For this issue, we want to update add-update-label-weekly.yml and rename the action to 'Schedule Friday 0700' so all scheduled actions that occur on 7am every Friday can live in this file.

Action Items

• [x] Review the notes below to understand recent changes to our architecture
• [x] Rename the file from 'add-update-label-weekly.yml' to 'schedule-fri-0700.yml'
• [x] Rename the name of the action from 'Add Update Label to Issues Weekly' to 'Schedule Friday 0700'
  • [x] The name of the job should still stay the same (line 8)
• [x] Update the location of the accompanying files
  • [x] If not created yet, create a new directory under /github-actions/ called trigger-schedule
  • [x] Move the add-update-label-weekly directory under /github-actions/trigger-schedule
  • [x] Update the github action's js requirement to reflect the change in directory
• [ ] If possible, do a test on your local environment and make sure it still works

Architecture Notes

The idea behind the refactor is to organize our GitHub Actions so that developers can easily maintain and understand them. Currently, we want our GitHub Actions to be structured like so based on this proposal:

• Schedules (military time) - Schedule Friday 0700 - Schedule Thursday 1100 - Schedule Daily 1100
• Linters - Lint SCSS
• PR Trigger - Add Linked Issue Labels to Pull Request - Add Pull Request Instructions
• Issue Trigger - Add Missing Labels To Issues
• WR - PR Trigger - WR Add Linked Issue Labels to Pull Request - WR Add Pull Request Instructions
• WR - Issue Trigger

Actions with the same triggers (excluding linters, which will be their own category) will live in the same github action file. Scheduled actions will live in the same file if they trigger on the same schedule (i.e. all files that trigger everyday at 11am will live in one file, while files that trigger on Friday at 7am will be on a separate file).

That said, this structure is not set in stone. If any part of it feels strange, or you have questions, feel free to bring it up with the team so we can evolve this format!
