  ### Blogs posts
  <!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:START -->
  <!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:END -->

Make sure to include the comment tag cause the post will be placed in this

  <!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:START -->
  <!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:END -->

• Now let us come to the logic, We are going to use blog-post-workflow action:

  gautamkrishnar / blog-post-workflow

  Show your latest blog posts from any sources or StackOverflow activity or Youtube Videos on your GitHub profile/project readme automatically using the RSS feed

• For that create a file in .github/workflows/ called blog-post-workflow.yml

name: Latest blog post workflow
on:
  schedule: # Run workflow automatically
    - cron: '0 * * * *' # Runs every hour, on the hour
  workflow_dispatch: # Run workflow manually (without waiting for the cron to be called), through the Github Actions Workflow page directly
jobs:
  update-readme-with-blog:
    name: Update this repo's README with latest blog posts
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: gautamkrishnar/blog-post-workflow@master
        with:
          feed_list: "https://dev.to/feed/{username}"

Replace {username} with your username

• Check the repo for more configuration options:

  gautamkrishnar / blog-post-workflow

  Show your latest blog posts from any sources or StackOverflow activity or Youtube Videos on your GitHub profile/project readme automatically using the RSS feed

  Blog post workflow

  

  How to use

  • Star this repo ?
  • Go to your repository
  • Add the following section to your README.md file, you can give whatever title you want. Just make sure that you use <!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:START --><!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:END --> in your readme. The workflow will replace this comment with the actual blog post list:

  # Blog posts
  <!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:START -->
  <!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:END -->

  • Create a folder named .github and create a workflows folder inside it if it doesn't exist.
  • Create a new file named blog-post-workflow.yml with the following contents inside the workflows folder:

  name: Latest blog post workflow
  on
    schedule: # Run workflow automatically
      - cron: '0 * * * *' # Runs every hour, on the hour
    workflow_dispatch: # Run workflow manually (without waiting for the cron to be called), through the Github Actions Workflow page directly
  jobs:
    update-readme-with-blog:
