Question: use Reviewpad to automate workflows?

[marcelosousa]

Hi,

This might be a silly question but I was wondering if Reviewpad (https://docs.reviewpad.com/) could be useful to help with the management of some PR/issues workflows.

The idea is that you don't need so many GitHub actions to run for different workflows. Instead, you specify these workflows in a single .YML configuration that will be then processed by the Reviewpad action to apply these workflows.

This makes it easy to centralize, alleviates the need to understand the GitHub API and allows for the use of a tested GitHub action. The configuration is also pretty flexible and extensible as the project is open-source:

• https://github.com/reviewpad/action
• https://github.com/reviewpad/reviewpad

If there is interest from the Backstage community, I would happy to open a PR that introduces the action and starts automating some of the workflows.
