Piste de recherche

Commencez par la logique de l’action qui construit la requête curl vers PULLS_URL à l’aide des paramètres base et head. Reproduisez le cas d’un branch du même dépôt avec un branch de base différent de main, puis vérifiez qu’un pull request existant est détecté et que sa création est ignorée avec le message de log attendu.

Description

bug

Describe the bug
When the base branch for the pull request is not main (e.g., develop), the Crowdin GitHub Action fails to detect an existing pull request from a same-repo source branch (e.g., l10n_crowdin_translations). As a result, it attempts to create a new pull request and fails with a 422 Validation Failed error.

The issue likely occurs because the action uses head=ORG_NAME:BRANCH when calling the GitHub API to check for existing PRs.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Use the Crowdin GitHub Action with the following relevant configuration:
localization_branch_name: l10n_crowdin_translations
pull_request_base_branch_name: develop
create_pull_request: true
  1. Ensure that:
  • A pull request already exists from l10n_crowdin_translations to develop
  • Both branches exist in the same repository (not from a fork)
  1. Trigger the workflow again (either via schedule or manual dispatch)

Example workflow:

name: Crowdin Action Pull

on:
  workflow_dispatch:
  schedule:
    - cron: '0 7,12 * * *'

jobs:
  synchronize-with-crowdin:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    permissions:
      contents: write
      pull-requests: write

    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: crowdin action
        uses: crowdin/github-action@v2
        with:
          upload_sources: false
          upload_translations: false
          download_sources: true
          download_translations: true
          export_only_approved: true
          localization_branch_name: l10n_crowdin_translations
          pull_request_base_branch_name: develop
          create_pull_request: true
          push_sources: true
          push_translations: true
          pull_request_title: 'New Crowdin Translations'
          pull_request_body: 'New Crowdin translations by [Crowdin GH Action](https://github.com/crowdin/github-action)'
          pull_request_labels: 'Crowdin'
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          CROWDIN_PROJECT_ID: ${{ secrets.CROWDIN_PROJECT_ID }}
          CROWDIN_PERSONAL_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.CROWDIN_PERSONAL_TOKEN }}

Expected behavior
The action should detect that a pull request from l10n_crowdin_translations to develop already exists and skip creating a new one. It should log PULL REQUEST ALREADY EXIST instead of failing.

Screenshots
Relevant log from the failing repo:

CHECK IF PULL REQUEST ALREADY EXIST
CREATE PULL REQUEST
FAILED TO CREATE PULL REQUEST
RESPONSE: {
  "message": "Validation Failed",
  "errors": [
    {
      "resource": "PullRequest",
      "code": "custom",
      "message": "A pull request already exists for XXX:l10n_crowdin_translations."
    }
  ],
  "documentation_url": "https://docs.github.com/rest/pulls/pulls#create-a-pull-request",
  "status": "422"
}

Additional context
The bug appears in this part of the Crowdin action logic:

pull_requests_response=$(curl ... "${PULLS_URL}?base=${BASE_BRANCH}&head=${ORG_NAME}:${BRANCH}")

When changing into it works

"${PULLS_URL}?base=${BASE_BRANCH}&head=${BRANCH}"

I've verified this by forking the action and applying the fix — and the problem was resolved. The action correctly detects existing pull requests and avoids trying to create duplicates.
