Support for multiple deployments in one comment

Hello

I would like to ask if it is possible to replace context.payload.comment.body with a specific comment body that is passed through the workflow call.

The reason I’m asking is that I want to support multiple deployments from a single comment. The repository I’m working on contains many different ArgoCD-managed apps (spread across 10+ clusters).

The way we currently use .deploy is like this:

.deploy app1-enva

where app1 is the application and enva is the cluster where we want to deploy it.

I forked the repo about 2 months ago and made it work by building a matrix from the different .deploy commands and then running each sequentially. However, the branch-deploy workflow wanted to use the whole comment, e.g.:

.deploy app1-enva .deploy app2-envb

So I made some changes in the code and replaced context.payload.comment.body with a specific COMMENT_BODY passed from the matrix (always the one currently deploying). This worked.

Now, I’ve been asked if there’s a way to merge this change back into the original repo so we don’t need to maintain a separate fork.

So my question is: Is it possible to merge my changes that replace context.payload.comment.body with a specific comment body that gets passed in through the workflow call? Or it would break too many things for other users?
