      additionalOptions?: AdditionalOptions
      ) => Promise<Server>;

        property id

        id: string;

          property isBot

          readonly isBot: boolean;

                  method config

                  config: <T>(
                  fileName: string,
                  defaultConfig?: T,
                  deepMergeOptions?: merge.Options
                  ) => Promise<T | null>;
                  • Reads the app configuration from the given YAML file in the .github directory of the repository.

                    For example, given a file named .github/config.yml:

                    close: true
                    comment: Check the specs on the rotary girder.

                    Your app can read that file from the target repository:

                    // Load config from .github/config.yml in the repository
                    const config = await context.config('config.yml')
                    if (config.close) {
                    context.octokit.issues.comment(context.issue({body: config.comment}))
                    context.octokit.issues.edit(context.issue({state: 'closed'}))
                    }

                    You can also use a defaultConfig object:

                    // Load config from .github/config.yml in the repository and combine with default config
                    const config = await context.config('config.yml', {comment: 'Make sure to check all the specs.'})
                    if (config.close) {
                    context.octokit.issues.comment(context.issue({body: config.comment}));
                    context.octokit.issues.edit(context.issue({state: 'closed'}))
                    }

                    Config files can also specify a base that they extend. deepMergeOptions can be used to configure how the target config, extended base, and default configs are merged.

                    For security reasons, configuration is only loaded from the repository's default branch, changes made in pull requests from different branches or forks are ignored.

                    If you need more lower-level control over reading and merging configuration files, you can context.octokit.config.get(options), see https://github.com/probot/octokit-plugin-config.

                    Parameter fileName

                    Name of the YAML file in the .github directory

                    Parameter defaultConfig

                    An object of default config options

                    Parameter deepMergeOptions

                    Controls merging configs (from the [deepmerge](https://github.com/TehShrike/deepmerge) module) Configuration object read from the file

                  method issue

                  issue: <T>(
                  object?: T
                  ) => RepoResultType<Event> & { issue_number: RepoIssueNumberType<Event> } & T;
                  • Return the owner, repo, and issue_number params for making API requests against an issue. The object passed in will be merged with the repo params.

                    const params = context.issue({body: 'Hello World!'})
                    // Returns: {owner: 'username', repo: 'reponame', issue_number: 123, body: 'Hello World!'}

                  • Return the owner, repo, and pull_number params for making API requests against a pull request. The object passed in will be merged with the repo params.

                    // Returns: {owner: 'username', repo: 'reponame', pull_number: 123, body: 'Hello World!'}

                    Parameter object

                    Params to be merged with the pull request params.

                  repo: <T>(object?: T) => RepoResultType<Event> & T;
                  • Return the owner and repo params for making API requests against a repository.

                    const params = context.repo({path: '.github/config.yml'})
