Setting up label sync in another repository

This repository includes a reusable workflow for synchronising labels across repositories and from YAML files. To set up label synchronisation in another repository, go to that repository and create an empty file .github/labels.yml as well as a new workflow .github/workflows/sync-labels.yml.

name: Sync labels
on:
    workflow_dispatch: {}
    schedule:
        - cron: "0 2 * * *" # 2am every day
    push:
        branches:
            - develop
        paths:
            - .github/labels.yml
jobs:
    sync-labels:
        uses: vector-im/element-meta/.github/workflows/sync-labels.yml@develop
        with:
            LABELS: |
                vector-im/element-meta
                .github/labels.yml
            DELETE: true
            WET: false
        secrets:
            ELEMENT_BOT_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.ELEMENT_BOT_TOKEN }}

This will sync labels from vector-im/element-meta as well as the local labels.yml file. Note that WET: false ensures that the workflow runs in dry mode without actually changing any labels.

Manually execute the workflow once. The workflow run's logs will include a summary of the label changes that would have been applied. Take particular note of the section that lists additional labels.

The following labels exist in matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk-module-api but are missing in all sources. They will be deleted.
- name: "A-Timesheet-1"
  description: "Log any time spent on this into the A-Timesheet-1 project"
  color: "5319E7"
- name: "bug"
  description: "Something isn't working"
  color: "d73a4a"
- name: "documentation"
  ...

If you want to retain these labels, either copy them to labels.yml or set DELETE: false.

Afterwards set WET: true in the workflow and execute it. You may hit GitHub's rate limits on the initial run.

}

If so, just do as the message says and execute the workflow again after a few minutes to let it apply the leftover changes. From here on labels should be kept in sync automatically.
