This repo contains the code for provisioning a new GitHub repository with required files, standardized for the STSD Organization. Files include:
CONTRIBUTING.mdLICENSE- Code of Conduct
- Standardized labels
- PR and Issue templates
This toolkit uses Ruby 3.0 in conjunction with Octokit to provision new GitHub repositories. In my opinion, the best way to install Ruby is by using a version management system. I've recently switched to asdf which is a version management system for multiple languages and I love it! Unfortunately, it's only available on Mac and Linux machines.
Windows users can down Ruby via RubyInstaller for Windows. Make sure to download the version with Devkit (Ruby+Devkit)!
You'll need to generate a GitHub personal access token by navigating to https://github.com/settings/tokens. Add "GitHub Provisioning Toolkit" as the note, check the options for "repo," "workflow," and "admin:org," then click the "Generate token" button. Your access token will be displayed on the next page for you to copy.

A big shoutout to Ruby for Good for making their provisioning repo open source! Check out the amazing things they do on their website as well!
