Automatic checks on submission

[pkbullock]

Need to automate the checks. Eg

• Files are in expected locations and right casing
• key files, README.md, in assets, preview.png and sample.json
• sample.json must not be default BUT if it is to support the contributor, its a task for ME.
• Parts of the Readme needed to be updated (need to expand on detail)
• telemetry url in right format matches the folder name
• delete cmdlet have warning in place in the readme file
• dates are up to date - ensure that dates created/modified are not part of the default template e.g. there is a change.
• Recent issue the name column in sample.json file shouldn't contain special characters

Ideally, the list shouldnt be a barrier, its more of a helper for me to tweak the submission accordingly (so i don't miss anything) and contributor gets help.

• For each step thats checked - ensure there is contributor guidance to help the contributor.

Hi @hugoabernier - the submission checker you have built for other repos, I am looking to do the above. Highlighting here at some point we should connect and see if your tool can do the above. 😁

We can definitely do this.

Here what I think we can do right away vs needing more deets

• [x] Files are in expected locations and right casing

  will need more details, but most likely achievable with mod filter expressions

• [x] key files, README.md, in assets, preview.png and sample.json

  assuming any *.png file under assets folder. We can tweak rules to request preview.png specifically

• [x] sample.json must not be default BUT if it is to support the contributor, its a task for ME.

  I use a PowerShell script to populate/update the sample.json

• [ ] Parts of the Readme needed to be updated (need to expand on detail)

  Would love more details on what to check for

• [x] telemetry url in right format matches the folder name

  I use PowerShell to update the README.md based on folder name

• [ ] delete cmdlet have warning in place in the readme file

  Need more details, but sounds fun!

• [x] dates are up to date - ensure that dates created/modified are not part of the default template e.g. there is a change.

  I use PowerShell to updated the sample.json dates based on earliest/latest dates in the version history table in the README.md

• [ ] Recent issue the name column in sample.json file shouldn't contain special characters

  Need more details here
