I was looking at aragon’s discord and i like this channel they have where they see all pull requests, it’s really easy to do, but you have to have permissions on github i think.
and here’s a pic of how it looks

Love it!
We should check on a couple things…
#1 We will eventually move to our own discord
#2 How easy is it to add new repos to the party
#3 We might want to have 2 channels, one for all the github activity, and another for Project Management, as we are using this repo to organize work in general: https://github.com/TECommons/Coordination…

Seems like there is no way to add a whole github account, so it is manual, repo by repo, adding a webhook to each repo with an endpoint to the discord channel

#1 Moving to our own discord
Separating from the general token engineering community? Personally I’m hesitant on that, I love the comprehensive community that is TE, I think it’s so cool that the commons and the academy are in one place. Is there a forum post or other resource dedicated to this discussion?
Yeah I didn’t understand that, I was thinking since discord is open source maybe @Griff wanted to program “our own discord” ^^
I don’t think Discord is open source.

yeah, they love open-source but they are not open source, my bad
That’s true for the outgoing webhook from Github, however there are indeed other ways to integrate something like this to connect Github and Discord. (these are all triggers)
A relatively straight-forward one would be a github action that runs on issue, pull_request (which are all events thrown by github, and can be set as triggers on the action) and push and sends a message to github via a webhook.
This should be easily configurable by adding one file in the github repo(in the .github/workflows folder)

#1 Welp we moved ; )
#2 If we set up a github action to do this, we’d only need to like add one YAML file in the .github/workflows folder, and that should do it : ) (Other methods might be more or less complex)
#3 We could maybe set up two channels. Having one channel logging all the coordination repo stuff would be really cool. It would be like a “keep track of zenhub, while using discord” channel

I’m on board with trying this out!
@KrisJ has looked at zappier as a solution to have github notifications (mentions specifically) sent to Discord DMs though it was too pricey to implement. But this could be really useful too.
The notifications from mentions would be slightly trickier to implement… but should be do-able
I set up the channel to keep track of the coordination repo. (It doesn’t track mentions, but just sends event updates via a Webhook whenever something happens in the coordination repo).
For tracking the mentions etc. we might need to customise and make our own integration on github-actions.
