Collect your latest articles from sources such as dev.to, and then update the README.md.

Use GitHub Action to update your README

Step 1: In your repository, create a file named README.md.template.

Step 2: Write anything you want within the README.md.template file.

Step 3: Embed one of the following entities within your README.md.template:

  • Article listing:
{{ template "article-list" .Articles }}
  • Article table:
{{ template "article-table" .Articles }}

If you are familiar with Go templates, you have access to the root variable, which includes the following fields:

  • Articles: An array of Article. You can view the Article struct definition in model/article.go.
  • Time: Updated Time
  • Author: Author of articles

Step 4: Register Github Action

  • Create a file .github/workflows/update-articles.yml in your repository.
name: "Cronjob"
on:
schedule:
- cron: '15 0 * * *'

jobs:
    update-articles:
        permissions: write-all
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        steps:
            - uses: actions/checkout@v3
            - name: Generate README
              uses: huantt/[email protected]
              with:
                username: YOUR_USERNAME_ON_DEV_TO                
                template-file: 'README.md.template'
                out-file: 'README.md'
                limit: 5
            - name: Commit
              run: |
                if git diff --exit-code; then
                    echo "No changes to commit."
                    exit 0
                else
                    git config user.name github-actions
                    git config user.email [email protected]
                    git add .
                    git commit -m "update"
                    git push origin main
                fi

Step 5: Commit your change, then Github actions will run as your specified cron to update Articles into your README.md file
