GitHub - peter-evans/create-issue-from-file: A GitHub action to create an issue using content from a file (original) (raw)

A GitHub action to create an issue using content from a file.

This is designed to be used in conjunction with other actions that output to a file. Especially if that output can be formatted as GitHub flavoured Markdown. This action will create an issue if a file exists at a specified path. The content of the issue will be taken from the file as-is. If the file does not exist the action exits silently.
