Can we create a way to see all 'easyfix' issues across ansible collections and projects?

[samccann]

Summary

This is part discussion, part - is it even possible??

So we have a lot of separate repositories now in Ansible. That makes it harder for new contributors to find an easyfix issue across oh 100+ repositories.

So first question - Do we want something like this? A way to 'view' all easyfix across all ansible projects (collections included)?

Second question - Anyone know of a way to do this short of looking at 100 repos for an easyfix label and then linking it to some new 'easyfix' github project board? :-)

Third question - Anyone up for creating this?

easyfix on ansible-collections GitHub Org: https://github.com/search?q=user%3Aansible-collections+label%3Aeasyfix&type=Issues&ref=advsearch&l=&l=

easyfix across multiple GitHub Orgs: https://github.com/search?q=user%3Aansible-collections+user%3Aansible+user%3Aansible-community+label%3Aeasyfix&type=Issues&ref=advsearch&l=&l=

You can create this via https://github.com/search/advanced

oh wow.. that was fast!

This is probably something we can add regularly to the bullhorn. The next question - should we separate collection 'easyfix' from everything else or just use the 2nd search listed above?

I think splitting out by GitHub Org is good.
Brilliant idea to add to Bullhorn

easyfix on ansible-collections GitHub Org: https://github.com/search?q=user%3Aansible-collections+label%3Aeasyfix&type=Issues&ref=advsearch&l=&l=

I don't think close issues are that interesting, so maybe: https://github.com/search?l=&q=user%3Aansible-collections+label%3Aeasyfix&state=open&type=Issues would be better :-)

[Andersson007]

it could be also easy_fix i think. maybe some other options

Notes from community WG meeting:

• +1 for adding to Bullhorn - one for ansible GH org and one for the collections GH org
• Also add to the contributor docs on docs.ansible.com

@Andersson007 good point!
I played a bit and we have 40 open issues with easyfix label (none with hyphen or dash).
We have 82 with good first issue label. So the two searches I'll put in the bullhorn are:

https://github.com/search?q=user%3Aansible+user%3Aansible-community+label%3Aeasyfix%2C%22good+first+issue%22+state%3Aopen&type=Issues (92 across all non-collection projects)

and

https://github.com/search?q=user%3Aansible-collections+label%3Aeasyfix%2C%22good+first+issue%22+state%3Aopen&type=Issues (26 across all ansible-collections )

[Andersson007]

Added the refs to contributor docs ansible/ansible#79830

I added the docs label to the refs in contributor_path.rst

[Andersson007]

Added to docs/docsite/rst/community/documentation_contributions.rst ansible/ansible#79840

Thanks @Andersson007 ! Closing this issue as it's all been implemented. Thanks everyone for the help!
