+# Carpentries Workflows
+
+This directory contains workflows to be used for Lessons using the {sandpaper}
+lesson infrastructure. Two of these workflows require R (`sandpaper-main.yaml`
+and `pr-recieve.yaml`) and the rest are bots to handle pull request management.
+
+These workflows will likely change as {sandpaper} evolves, so it is important to
+keep them up-to-date. To do this in your lesson you can do the following in your
+R console:
+
+```r
+# Install/Update sandpaper
+options(repos = c(carpentries = "https://carpentries.r-universe.dev/", 
+  CRAN = "https://cloud.r-project.org"))
+install.packages("sandpaper")
+
+# update the workflows in your lesson
+library("sandpaper")
+update_github_workflows()
+```
+
+Inside this folder, you will find a file called `sandpaper-version.txt`, which
+will contain a version number for sandpaper. This will be used in the future to
+alert you if a workflow update is needed.
+
+What follows are the descriptions of the workflow files:
+
+## Deployment
+
+### 01 Build and Deploy (sandpaper-main.yaml)
+
+This is the main driver that will only act on the main branch of the repository.
+This workflow does the following:
+
+ 1. checks out the lesson
+ 2. provisions the following resources
+   - R
+   - pandoc
+   - lesson infrastructure (stored in a cache)
+   - lesson dependencies if needed (stored in a cache)
+ 3. builds the lesson via `sandpaper:::ci_deploy()`
+
+#### Caching
+
+This workflow has two caches; one cache is for the lesson infrastructure and 
+the other is for the the lesson dependencies if the lesson contains rendered
+content. These caches are invalidated by new versions of the infrastructure and
+the `renv.lock` file, respectively. If there is a problem with the cache, 
+manual invaliation is necessary. You will need maintain access to the repository
+and you can either go to the actions tab and [click on the caches button to find
+and invalidate the failing cache](https://github.blog/changelog/2022-10-20-manage-caches-in-your-actions-workflows-from-web-interface/) 
+or by setting the `CACHE_VERSION` secret to the current date (which will
+invalidate all of the caches).
+
+## Updates
+
+### Setup Information
+
+These workflows run on a schedule and at the maintainer's request. Because they
+create pull requests that update workflows/require the downstream actions to run,
+they need a special repository/organization secret token called 
+`SANDPAPER_WORKFLOW` and it must have the `public_repo` and `workflow` scope. 
+
+This can be an individual user token, OR it can be a trusted bot account. If you
+have a repository in one of the official Carpentries accounts, then you do not
+need to worry about this token being present because the Carpentries Core Team
+will take care of supplying this token.
+
+If you want to use your personal account: you can go to 
+<https://github.com/settings/tokens/new?scopes=public_repo,workflow&description=Sandpaper%20Token>
+to create a token. Once you have created your token, you should copy it to your
+clipboard and then go to your repository's settings > secrets > actions and
+create or edit the `SANDPAPER_WORKFLOW` secret, pasting in the generated token.
+
+If you do not specify your token correctly, the runs will not fail and they will
+give you instructions to provide the token for your repository. 
+
+### 02 Maintain: Update Workflow Files (update-workflow.yaml)
+
+The {sandpaper} repository was designed to do as much as possible to separate 
+the tools from the content. For local builds, this is absolutely true, but 
+there is a minor issue when it comes to workflow files: they must live inside 
+the repository. 
+
+This workflow ensures that the workflow files are up-to-date. The way it work is
+to download the update-workflows.sh script from GitHub and run it. The script 
+will do the following:
+
+1. check the recorded version of sandpaper against the current version on github
+2. update the files if there is a difference in versions
+
+After the files are updated, if there are any changes, they are pushed to a
+branch called `update/workflows` and a pull request is created. Maintainers are
+encouraged to review the changes and accept the pull request if the outputs
+are okay.
+
+This update is run ~~weekly or~~ on demand.
+
+### 03 Maintain: Update Pacakge Cache (update-cache.yaml)
+
+For lessons that have generated content, we use {renv} to ensure that the output
+is stable. This is controlled by a single lockfile which documents the packages
+needed for the lesson and the version numbers. This workflow is skipped in 
+lessons that do not have generated content.
+
+Because the lessons need to remain current with the package ecosystem, it's a
+good idea to make sure these packages can be updated periodically. The 
+update cache workflow will do this by checking for updates, applying them in a
+branch called `updates/packages` and creating a pull request with _only the
+lockfile changed_. 
+
+From here, the markdown documents will be rebuilt and you can inspect what has
+changed based on how the packages have updated. 
+
+## Pull Request and Review Management
+
+Because our lessons execute code, pull requests are a secruity risk for any
+lesson and thus have security measures associted with them. **Do not merge any
+pull requests that do not pass checks and do not have bots commented on them.**
+
+This series of workflows all go together and are described in the following 
+diagram and the below sections:
+
+![Graph representation of a pull request](https://carpentries.github.io/sandpaper/articles/img/pr-flow.dot.svg)
+
+### Pre Flight Pull Request Validation (pr-preflight.yaml)
+
+This workflow runs every time a pull request is created and its purpose is to
+validate that the pull request is okay to run. This means the following things:
+
+1. The pull request does not contain modified workflow files
+2. If the pull request contains modified workflow files, it does not contain 
+   modified content files (such as a situation where @carpentries-bot will
+   make an automated pull request)
+3. The pull request does not contain an invalid commit hash (e.g. from a fork
+   that was made before a lesson was transitioned from styles to use the
+   workbench).
+
+Once the checks are finished, a comment is issued to the pull request, which 
+will allow maintainers to determine if it is safe to run the 
+"Receive Pull Request" workflow from new contributors.
+
+### Recieve Pull Request (pr-recieve.yaml)
+
+**Note of caution:** This workflow runs arbitrary code by anyone who creates a
+pull request. GitHub has safeguarded the token used in this workflow to have no
+priviledges in the repository, but we have taken precautions to protect against
+spoofing.
+
+This workflow is triggered with every push to a pull request. If this workflow
+is already running and a new push is sent to the pull request, the workflow
+running from the previous push will be cancelled and a new workflow run will be
+started.
+
+The first step of this workflow is to check if it is valid (e.g. that no
+workflow files have been modified). If there are workflow files that have been
+modified, a comment is made that indicates that the workflow is not run. If 
+both a workflow file and lesson content is modified, an error will occurr.
+
+The second step (if valid) is to build the generated content from the pull
+request. This builds the content and uploads three artifacts:
+
+1. The pull request number (pr)
+2. A summary of changes after the rendering process (diff)
+3. The rendered files (build)
+
+Because this workflow builds generated content, it follows the same general 
+process as the `sandpaper-main` workflow with the same caching mechanisms.
+
+The artifacts produced are used by the next workflow.
+
+### Comment on Pull Request (pr-comment.yaml)
+
+This workflow is triggered if the `pr-recieve.yaml` workflow is successful.
+The steps in this workflow are:
+
+1. Test if the workflow is valid and comment the validity of the workflow to the
+   pull request.
+2. If it is valid: create an orphan branch with two commits: the current state
+   of the repository and the proposed changes.
+3. If it is valid: update the pull request comment with the summary of changes
+
+Importantly: if the pull request is invalid, the branch is not created so any
+malicious code is not published.
+
+From here, the maintainer can request changes from the author and eventually 
+either merge or reject the PR. When this happens, if the PR was valid, the 
+preview branch needs to be deleted. 
+
+### Send Close PR Signal (pr-close-signal.yaml)
+
+Triggered any time a pull request is closed. This emits an artifact that is the
+pull request number for the next action
+
+### Remove Pull Request Branch (pr-post-remove-branch.yaml)
+
+Tiggered by `pr-close-signal.yaml`. This removes the temporary branch associated with
+the pull request (if it was created).
