PR Failing: Add The Ability to Randomly Select Reviewers/Assignees From Groups

See original GitHub issue

Hi kentaro-m, I have opened a PR for the requested functionality in this ticket. Sadly the CircleCi build is failing with a confusing error: Bad response: 422 {"message":"Couldn't find a repository matching this job.","error":true}

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I find myself in the situation where there is a rift in the engineering team I am working in (which I understand is a common problem). The divide in knowledge and practices lies along the separation of our offices.

Describe the solution you’d like I therefore looked for a tool that could help us to share the knowledge between offices. The auto_assign bot was perfect for our needs, except that we specifically want to select people from each office, or “group”, to review any given PR. The theory is that selecting reviewers from each group will help us bridge the gap in knowledge and bring the two teams closer together.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered I have designed the implementation to leave all the current functionality intact, and add review/assignee groups on top of your current code.

Let me know what you think!

Hi, @tommy-meacham. Thank you for sharing your opinion!

I was made to realize there is value in keeping the current way of adding groups into the config by your comment.

I think my idea do too much for the app’s responsibility (Of course, it would be great if the app has a feature that adds reviewers using Github Teams. ).

So I will take your idea and start to review your PR https://github.com/kentaro-m/auto-assign/pull/70.
