Target Audience

This workflow is ideal for:
- Developers who need to automate deployment processes via Telegram commands.
- DevOps Engineers looking for a streamlined way to trigger GitHub releases based on communication from team members.
- Project Managers who want to ensure that deployment requests are efficiently handled through a messaging platform.
- Tech Teams that rely on Telegram for real-time updates and want to integrate it with their GitHub repositories for smoother operations.

Problem Solved

This workflow addresses the challenge of manually triggering deployments through GitHub by utilizing Telegram as a communication tool. It allows users to send a command (/deploy) via Telegram, which then activates an automated process to set the version based on the command input and initiate a release on GitHub, thus reducing manual errors and saving time.

Workflow Steps

  • Telegram Trigger: The workflow starts with a Telegram Trigger that listens for incoming messages.
    2. IF Node: It checks if the received message contains the command /deploy. If it does, the workflow continues; otherwise, it does nothing.
    3. Set Node: If the command is detected, the workflow extracts the version number from the message (the second word in the command).
    4. GitHub Node: The extracted version is then used to trigger a release on GitHub in the specified repository.
    5. NoOp Node: If the command is not /deploy, the workflow ends with a NoOp node, ensuring no further action is taken.

    • Customization Guide

    To customize this workflow:
    - Change the Command: Modify the /deploy command in the IF node to any other command that suits your needs.
    - Adjust the GitHub Repository: Update the repository name and owner in the GitHub node to point to your specific project.
    - Version Extraction: If your command format changes, adjust the string manipulation in the Set node to correctly extract the version number.
    - Add Additional Actions: Insert more nodes after the GitHub node to perform further actions based on the deployment results, such as sending confirmation messages back to Telegram.
