SnoopCompileBot deprecations notice

[aminya]

Some packages are using .github/workflows/SnoopCompile.yml, and inside that, they add SnoopCompile and use it. Is there a way that CompatHelper allows us to find these packages and give them some notification that SnoopCompile is updated and they might need to update some of their code?

Deprecation warnings are just shown passed in GitHub actions and the users may not notice anything.

One solution might be using CompatHelper:
JuliaRegistries/CompatHelper.jl#218

I guess the risk is they might not check the logs? I think it's on them 😄.

Part of it is that not very often people read CI log (unless it errors), and that is why we need to have a better way to inform them. My Julia issue was closed, but @christopher-dG mentioned that he can make a new package, that gives us the ability to push the warnings to GitHub's warning system.

The actual code is basically done, just needs some grunt work https://github.com/julia-actions/GitHubActions.jl

@christopher-dG That is awesome. Could we rename this package to CILogger instead, and implement different styles of logging for different services all in one package? We can add more services like Travis, Azure, etc.

No, this one is going to be just GitHub Actions (it does more than logging). You could make a meta-package of sorts that aggregates various similar packages if you like.
