A GitHub action to add an attention label on an open pull-request after certain days.

This Action uses the Pull request api which will fire on the scheduled_event .

The action requires three environment variables

• ADD_LABEL: The label name to add. Mandatory variable.
• AFTER_DAYS: The number of days from pull request creation date. Optional variable, default value is 3 days.
• SKIP_LABELS: The comma separated labels string. If an open pull-request have one of those label then this action will skip adding the attention label. Optional variable, default value is work-in-progress,wip.

• Problem: Let's say, we need to add an reviewer attention label need-review for code-review of an open pull-request, when it is 4 days old. We need to skip the open pull request, if already have approved/wip label. Also lets add reviewer attention label only in working days Monday-Friday(5days).
• Solution: Schedule a GitHub action to add need-review label for those 4 days old open pull-requests.
