GitHub action to publish Discord help forums

Hacker News

Like many other projects we provide support through Discord. However, questions asked in Discord aren't indexable or searchable. To fix this I wrote a small GitHub action that generates transcripts for our help forum. We run that action every hour and then publish the result using GitHub pages. The heavy lifting of the action is done by https://github.com/ItzDerock/discord-html-transcripts , a node.js module that creates the actual transcripts. I just wrapped it into a GitHub action so it is more easily reusable. You can see our help page at https://help.toit.io , with the corresponding GitHub action here: https://github.com/toitware/web-help/blob/main/.github/workf...
