Web Portfolio Repository

This repository contains the web portfolio, including an automated process to synchronize the docs directory from the Angular Portfolio Repository.

Overview

• Purpose: Automatically sync the docs folder from Angular Portfolio (repo1) to this repository (repo2).
• Automation Tool: Uses GitHub Actions for automation.

How It Works

1. Trigger Events:

   • Push Event: When changes are made to the docs directory in repo1.
   • Scheduled Job: Runs on the 17th of every month.

2. Dispatch Workflow (in repo1):

   • Detects changes in the docs directory.
   • Sends a repository dispatch event to repo2.

3. Sync Workflow (in repo2):

   • Listens for dispatch events from repo1.
   • Clones the docs directory from repo1.
   • Syncs the docs directory with repo2.
   • Commits and pushes any changes to repo2.

Configuration

• Secrets Used:
  • REPO1_DISPATCH_TOKEN in repo1: Personal Access Token (PAT) for dispatching events.
  • REPO1_URL in repo2: URL of repo1 to clone the repository.
  • REPO2_TOKEN in repo2: PAT for authentication to push changes.

Manual Triggering

• Navigate to the Actions tab in repo1.
• Select the "Dispatch Docs Changes to Deploy Repository" workflow.
• Click "Run workflow" to manually trigger the synchronization process.

Conclusion

This setup ensures that the documentation in repo2 remains up-to-date with any changes made in repo1, both automatically and on a schedule.
