[Feature Request] Sync a GitHub Project with a NextCloud Deck Board

[Christopher-Hayes]

Being able to create a board that syncs with a pre-existing GitHub project.

I would envision the experience being:

• You could "Create a NextCloud Deck from a GitHub Project" (The first implementation could just be creating a Deck from a GitHub Project without sync'ing, since that is already useful)
• Data imported into DeckCloud could be: Title, Description, Tags. Comments and assignees would be cool, but not sure if Nextcloud would allow that.
• GitHub Projects also uses a Kanban layout, so columns could be recreated in the same manner. Moving a task from one column to the next in NextCloud would update GitHub.
• 2-way syncing: GitHub hooks could update the deck when GitHub updates, and vice versa.

This feature was also mentioned in the NextCloud Deck repo, but figured it would be useful to mention here since this app would likely be the one doing the work.

I personally would value a minimal implementation first. “Bidirectional” sync sounds nice, for me, it would be enough to have:

• Import single item from repository issues
• Import all items from repository issues

Then the Github issue could be linked, so more features in the future can be utilized, e.g. syncing etc. Just to easily have them would be nice. We could write a script for this import but then again, to replicate the whole functionality just to have it in a script ... not sure.

Has there been any progress on this?
