Improvement: Move all static checks from workflows to GitHub Application #10
Description
Important
Make sure to link this issue with the PR for your improvement.
Motivation
Using a GitHub Application for static code checks instead of relying solely on GitHub Workflows can provide several advantages:
- Centralized Management and Reusability;
- Real-Time Feedback;
- Resource Efficiency;
- Advanced Customization;
- Scalability and Consistency;
- Extended Permissions and Features;
- Lower Operational Costs;
Assuming that we will have more than one repository we can easily enforce same set of rules across project organization repos.
Steps
- Verify what kind of infrastructure Eclipse Foundation has for Score project in regards of hosting applications.
- Create GitHub application which will server as wrapper for all linters (static code checkers) and deploy it on Eclipse Foundation
- (optional) Discuss with Eclipse Foundation to make dedicated repository for further development of static code analyzer GitHub application.

The issue could be split into multiple ones that ex.:
Work then could be started before we decide to go (if at all) with a github application.

I'm not 100% sure about the cross repository alignment. While it would make things easier, are really all repositories going to follow the same tools and language guidelines?

@AlexanderLanin virtual images for runners for free?
Otherwise argue a little how much this is faster.
=> how to get the infrastructure.

This could help with all the basics workflows like cr-check and formatting, as individual repositories no longer need to setup workflows at all. The application could react on all pull-requests within eclipse-score!

Let's call it still relevant, but not short term. In order to keep backlogs manageable, I'll close this for now.
