Integrate Holopin in Slack
with Axolo

Holopin is a GitHub bot integration that enables Holopin organizations to easily reward badges in Issues, PRs, and Discussions. The tool is ideal for organizations looking to recognize and reward their contributors, helpers, and new members. Holopin bot encourages good practices by rewarding comprehensive bug reports, error stack traces, fully scoped out feature suggestions, and more.

To use the Holopin bot, an organization must have an account on Holopin, and repo maintainers must be members of the Holopin organization whose stickers they are issuing. Issuers should also have their personal Holopin accounts linked with GitHub.

To get started, users need to create a .github/holopin.yml file with their organization name on Holopin, default sticker ID, and stickers. The bot can be triggered by tagging @holopin-bot @username in conversation or by using an alias @holopin-bot @username sticker-alias. Additionally, the bot can be called out upon labeling an issue with the label that corresponds to a sticker alias in the holopin.yaml file.

Overall, Holopin is an excellent tool for organizations looking to incentivize and recognize their contributors while encouraging good practices.
