Release

Copy a GitHub project

Draft Issues

Template Interpolation

The title and body for draft issues can include mustache.js templates which will be interpolated after the project is copied if the template-view input is provided.

Field Values

Field values can be set on draft issues after the project is copied by adding an HTML comment to the body of the issue with a JSON object mapping field names to field values.

This is most powerful when combined with template interpolation as it is performed after the interpolation, so field values can be templated.

Example:

<!-- fields
  {
    "Start Date": "2023-11-01",
    "End Date": "{{ end-date }}"
  }
-->
