retire-inactive-contributor README.md

This is one result of the new contributors ensemble, a weekly exercise in ensemble programming.

Now as a Github action

When this Github action runs: - It requests a list of all contributors - Moves inactive contributors to a less-privileged alumni team - If an inactive contributor has custom permissions, these permissions are revoked

Usage Example

Add this text to your workflow config .github/workflows/main.yml

name: Retire inactive contributors
on:
  schedule:
    # https://crontab.guru/every-night-at-midnight
    - cron: "0 0 * * *"

jobs:
  retire-inactive:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: cucumber/action-retire-inactive-contributor@main
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
        with:
          github-orgname: cucumber
          maximum-absence-before-retirement: 1 year
          alumni-team: Alumni
