This is not ready for usage, as the algorithm is still being polished (dogfooding)

📜 PR Summary 📜

• Added a LICENSE file containing the MIT License for the suggestIssues plugin.
• Introduced a README.md file for the suggestIssues plugin, including links to JavaScript code and YAML configuration file references.
• Implemented index.js for the suggestIssues plugin, which fetches ticket recommendations based on pull request details using an asynchronous function.
• Created reference.md that describes the suggestIssues module, its returns, parameters, and provides an example usage in YAML.
• Added suggestIssues.cm, a YAML configuration file for gitStream, which automates suggestion of linked issues and updates pull request titles and descriptions based on selected issues.

JavaScript File (index.js)

Bugs, Security Risks, and Performance Issues:

1. Error Handling: The code should handle errors more robustly. Currently, if the fetch call fails, it logs the error but continues execution. Consider adding error handling to manage this scenario gracefully, possibly with retries or custom error messages.

2. Asynchronous Fetch Logic: While using .then() and .catch() on a fetch call is valid, it could be more consistent and cleaner to use try...catch with await for handling asynchronous operations, especially within an async function.

3. Callback Usage: The use of a callback pattern when using async/await can be streamlined. You can directly return the data without using a callback, as await returns a promise naturally. Ensure consistency across code patterns.

4. API Key Exposure: Avoid logging or accidentally exposing the apiKey in production environments.

Best Practices and Style Guide Violations:

1. Consistent Use of Arrow Functions: While you are using arrow functions consistently, make sure that complex operations (like mapping and filtering) include return types for better readability.

2. No Newline at the End of File: Ensure you add a newline at the end of the file. It's a general practice to have one to avoid unnecessary diffs in version control.

3. Logging: Console logs for debugging purposes should be removed or replaced with a logger when deploying to production.

Improvement Suggestions:

1. Consistent Error Messages: Provide more context in error messages to assist in debugging.

2. Response Structure: Validate the response structure thoroughly before accessing nested properties to prevent runtime errors.

3. Comment Adequately: Provide additional comments to explain complex logic, particularly around data mapping and transformations.

gitStream Configuration (suggestIssues.cm)

Bugs, Security Risks, and Performance Issues:

1. Environmental Variables: The use of env.TICKET_SUGGESTION_TOKEN should be secured and ideally not be logged anywhere.

2. Regex in Conditions: Regular expressions should be validated for potential edge cases in pattern matching to avoid unforeseen errors.

Best Practices and Style Guide Violations:

1. YAML Consistency: Ensure that inline comments and block comments have a consistent style and format for readability.

2. Indentation and Formatting: Check for consistent two-space indentation specific to YAML files to improve clarity.

Improvement Suggestions:

1. Dynamic Configuration: If there are any commonalities between multiple automations, consider abstracting them to avoid duplication.

2. Template Safety: Use safe template functions to sanitize any external input to avoid injection attacks.

Overall, ensure robust error-handling mechanisms, secure the use of sensitive configurations, and maintain a clean, consistent code style to follow codified best practices.

✨ gitStream Review ✨

index.js Review:

1. Error Handling Enhancement:

   • The fetch call currently logs errors using console.log, which might not be visible in a production environment and does not provide robust error handling.
     • Suggestion: Consider using a more robust logging mechanism or propagate the error through the callback to handle it gracefully in the caller function. Also, add detailed error messages to help diagnose issues.

2. ESLint and Style Recommendations:

   • Consider adhering to a style guide (e.g., AirBnB, Google) for consistency.
   • Suggestion:
     • Use await consistently instead of mixing await with .then. This can make the code cleaner and more readable.
     • Instead of console.log, consider using console.error for logging errors.

3. Security Risk with API Key:

   • The API key is passed directly and could potentially be exposed.
     • Suggestion: Ensure that the API key is handled securely. If the logs are accessible, avoid logging the apiKey inadvertently.

4. No Newline at End of File:

   • It's a best practice to have a newline at the end of files.
     • Suggestion: Add a newline at the end of index.js.

5. Destructuring and Type Safety:

   • It could improve readability by destructuring the pr and branch objects.
   • Suggestion: Use destructuring for pr and branch if it makes sense to do so to improve code readability.

suggestIssues.cm Review:

1. Event Trigger Specificity:

   • The automation runs based on label_added, which might not cover all scenarios.
     • Suggestion: Consider triggering on additional events or specifying conditions more granularly to avoid unwanted executions.

2. Regular Expression Usage:

   • Ensure regex patterns you use are well-tested, especially for extracting keys from comments or titles.
     • Suggestion: Document regex matches with examples to ease future maintenance. Consider edge cases that might break these matches.

3. YAML Best Practices:

   • Using if statements efficiently can prevent unnecessary automation triggers.
   • Suggestion: Ensure conditions in if checks are ordered by the least likely to fail to save processing time.

4. Hardcoded Dependency:

   • The use of env.TICKET_SUGGESTION_TOKEN and env.LINEARB_TOKEN implies a dependency on specific environment variables being set.
     • Suggestion: Ensure these environment variables are validated or provide defaults to prevent runtime errors.

5. Safety with User Input:

   • Ensure that any dynamic values inserted into YAML are sanitized to prevent injection vulnerabilities.
     • Suggestion: Validate and sanitize user inputs whenever dynamically generating parts of the configuration.
