[community] Labeling of Quarkus related issues

[zakkak]

Feature request

Now that graal has a github action testing the latest Quarkus release with the latest Graal (#2349) and a new label 'quarkus', it would be nice to have some help in labelling all the existing quarkus-related issues/PRs as well as the future ones.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently there is no way for third parties

Describe the solution you'd like.
Ideally I would like this to be automated.
Quarkus is using an autolabel workflow that runs periodically and automatically labels issues matching some criteria. Using a similar workflow would be of great help.

Describe who do you think will benefit the most.

• GraalVM contributors
• Quarkus contributors

Describe alternatives you've considered.
Alternatively, we could have a new issue template for quarkus-related issues and possibly give "Triage" permissions to some Quarkus contributors.

Express whether you'd like to help contributing this feature
I would happily contribute the workflow and configuration for the autolabel part.

Relates to #2764

@RoxaBee I like the idea of the automated labelling of Quarkus issues - do you see any problem with it?

@zakkak I like the automated labelling. I see it has a dependency on docker://maxandersen/jbang-issuelabeler. Can you please explain more about that dependency.

That would work probably work as well.

Hello @dougxc to label the issues Quarkus is using the issuelabeler GitHub action. GitHub actions can be written either as:

• javascript actions (most popular, and that's the format of the official actions, like checkout)
• docker container actions (this enables devs to write the action in the language of their choice)
• composite run steps actions (that's fairly new, and allows simple steps to be packaged in an action for reuse across workflows)

For more info see here

Now the issuelabeler action is a docker container action (thus the dependency on docker://maxandersen/jbang-issuelabeler).
The source code of the action is available in this repo (it contains both the action source, the dockerfile and the scripts that generate the docker image).
To have a look at what the action does please see the java source code

@RoxaBee please update here once we know how to assign the Triage role to our Quarkus collaborators.
