How to create Pull Request (PR) templates in Azure Repos? | Creating pull request template in Azure Repos


Azure Repos allows you to create Pull Request (PR) templates to standardize and streamline the PR process for your team. This ensures that all necessary information is included, making the review process more efficient. 

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Navigate to Your Repository:

    • Go to the Azure Repos repository where you want to create a PR template.
  2. Create a .azuredevops Directory:

    • create a new directory named .azuredevops in the root of your repository. This is where Azure Repos looks for configuration files, including PR templates.
  3. Create a PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE File:

    • Inside the .azuredevops directory, create a file named PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md. This file will contain the template for your pull requests.

      4. Add Template Content:

  • Open the PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md file and add the content you want to include in your PR template. You can use Markdown to format the template. Here’s an example of a basic PR template:

## What type of PR is this? (check all applicable)
- [ ] 🍕 New Feature
- [ ] 🎨 Enhancment Feature
- [ ] 🐛 Bug
## Describe about your code changes
<!-- 
Please do not leave this blank 
This PR [adds/removes/fixes/replaces] the [feature/bug/etc]. 
-->
## Related Feature & Documents
<!-- 
Please use this format link issue numbers: Fixes #123
-->
## Screenshots/Recordings Link In Sharepoint
<!-- Visual changes require screenshots -->

## Created Unit tests, etc?
- [ ] 👍 yes
- [ ] 🙅 no, because they aren't needed
- [ ] 🙋 no, because I need help
## Added to documentation?
- [ ] 📜 README.md
- [ ] 📕 wiki
- [ ] 🙅 no documentation needed
## [optional] Are there any post-deployment tasks we need to perform?

    5. Commit and Push:

  • Commit the PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md file to your repository and push it to Azure Repo.

git add .azuredevops/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md 
git commit -m "Add pull request template" 
git push origin main

  • open-source security scanner tool developed by Aqua Security. 
  • Used for vulnerability scanning in such as 
    • container images 
    • file systems/folders 
    • Git repositories
    • Kubernetes clusters
    • misconfiguration in files such as Terraform, K8S manifest files
  • Trivy helps identify security issues and misconfigurations early in the software development lifecycle.

How to Install Trivy scanner on Linux OS?

Trivy scanner can be installed so many ways. Check here for more information. But we will using APT package manager to install on Ubuntu.

sudo apt-get install wget gnupg -y
wget -qO - https://aquasecurity.github.io/trivy-repo/deb/public.key | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/trivy.gpg > /dev/null

sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get install trivy -y

Check Trivy got installed
trivy --version


This confirm that Trivy got installed successfully.

Perform Docker image scan locally
trivy image nginx:latest

where nginx is name of the docker image

You can also pass arguments to filter based on severity
trivy image --severity HIGH,CRITICAL,MEDIUM nginx:latest

Perform scanning a Git Repo

where repo_url is the public git repo that you want to scan

Perform scanning a file system locally
trivy fs your_folder

where your_folder is directory on your machine where you have installed Trivy.
