Wiki Template

This project template works best in combination with the wiki-repo-template. The wiki should be used to document development decisions and requirements.

Template Placeholders

In this template, many sections include placeholder text to provide some guidance of what the section should be about. These placeholders are inside {{ }} blocks.

Some sections also include example content that is given inside [[ ]] blocks.

GitHub Actions

This template already contains the following GitHub actions:

  • release-please ... Uses Google's release please action to generate releases automatically

    Note: You should adapt this action according to your needs.

GitHub Issue/PR Labels

Repositories created by GitHub templates do not adopt the issue/PR labels set in the template. Instead, each one must be copied manually, which is unfortunate, but must only be done once.

Below are the labels defined in the project template:

  • blocked ... Marks this issue/PR that it is blocked by another issue/PR (Color: #F83A55)
  • blocking ... Marks this issue/PR that it is blocking other issues/PRs (Color: #321575)
  • declined ... Marks this issue/PR as being closed without implementation (Color: #ffffff)
  • forces-major-bump ... Fixing this issue/merging this PR introduces BREAKING CHANGES (Color: #C23FB0)
  • good-first-issue ... Marks this issue that it is good for new contributors (Color: #8AE5A7)
  • help-needed ... Assignee of this issue/PR needs help (Color: #3DD15A)
  • high-prio ... Marks this issue/PR that it requires immediate attention (Color: #D71700)
  • hotfix ... Marks this PR as a fix of a critical bug (Color: #C9959E)
  • low-prio ... Marks this issue/PR as less important (Color: #88BBB8)
  • req-missing-wiki-entry ... This REQ issue is not yet documented in the wiki (Color: #6E5DB7)
  • req-ready ... Marks this REQ issue as being ready for implementation (Color: #0487CA)
  • waiting-on-assignee ... Issue/PR author or reviewer is awaiting response from assignee (Color: #FEF2C0)
  • waiting-on-author ... Assignee or reviewer is awaiting response from issue/PR author (Color: #463F12)
  • waiting-on-reviewer ... Author or assignee is awaiting response from reviewer (Color: #E6A2AE)
