Workflow is disabled after 60 days of inactivity #28

Open

Description

@florentx

Repository has a weekly scheduled action to create new postgres:xx images with updated upstream PostgreSQL images.

This workflow was disabled from May 3rd to September 17th 2026, due to GH policy:

This scheduled workflow is disabled because there hasn't been activity in this repository for at least 60 days. Enable this workflow to resume scheduled runs.


Documentation:
https://docs.github.com/en/actions/how-tos/manage-workflow-runs/disable-and-enable-workflows

To prevent unnecessary workflow runs, scheduled workflows may be disabled automatically. When a public repository is forked, scheduled workflows are disabled by default. In a public repository, scheduled workflows are automatically disabled when no repository activity has occurred in 60 days.


Maybe we should consider one of the workaround.

    Where this stands now: ci.yaml is active again and the weekly Sunday runs on 2026-09-27 and 2026-10-04 succeeded. The 60-day clock restarted with the last push to master (2026-09-21, the #29 merge), so if nothing else lands, GitHub will disable the schedule again around 2026-11-20. It emails the repo admins about a week before.

    Ways to stop it recurring, roughly from least to most effort:

    1. Let real maintenance reset the clock. A .github/dependabot.yml with package-ecosystem: github-actions (and docker, since the Dockerfiles pin upstream postgres tags) opens update PRs on its own; merging one is a push to master, which resets the 60 days. upd: GH action need update #29 was exactly this kind of change, done by hand.
    2. Re-enable when it happens: gh workflow enable ci.yaml -R camptocamp/docker-postgres, or Actions → "Build PostgreSQL images" → Enable workflow. Cheap, but it relies on someone reading the email; this time the gap was May to September.
    3. Trigger from outside the repo: drop the schedule: trigger and have a scheduler elsewhere send workflow_dispatch or repository_dispatch. Only scheduled workflows are auto-disabled, so this sidesteps the rule, at the cost of one more moving part and a token.

    If it helps to have the cutoff date visible, there's a free read-only page for this repo, with a README badge: https://schedule-check.standardcomputingllc.workers.dev/camptocamp/docker-postgres
