GitHub Blocks

@idan sounds like what I need to have my workflow dispatch forms right in GitHub
@bonjouryannick lol but also sob
@idan that popup is one of those things that has no direct URL… basically doing a dumb nextjs app for that
@idan My next app just for proxying to GitHub actions in a nice way...
@bonjouryannick I don't quite follow what you're trying to do here
@idan I want nicer forms for GitHub actions workflow dispatch. I use it to bookmark links :P
@bonjouryannick ah gotcha. Yeah, that sucks. I can think of how to do this with blocks! Ultimately, each block gets the ability to make requests to the GH API as the authed user. So you could build yourself a simple form like that as a directory block. Or if you wanted to make the form configurable, you could have a whatever.json and a block that knows how to turn that into a form, and send the various fields along with the workflow dispatch req
@idan that allows me to not freaking have a next js app 😂
