It would be possible to create an on-demand workflow that prompts for the project id. That can then run the script and generate a new/updated project.yaml file in a new branch. The workflow can then create a PR from the branch. I have tested all the parts separately, but have yet to put them together. > From my PoV this would be better since I have Jekyll & Ruby installed - but > I’ve never used Python. > > Having said that, I run Jekyll in WSL (windows Linux) which I only recently > started using - so could probably also work out python Unless the script needs modification, the language is largely irrelevant so long as it is installed. Sounds like staying with Ruby would involve less work. > Niall > > > > > > > Sebb > >
