Feature Description

n8n is essentially a self-hostable IFTTT/Zapier alternative

See also https://kolaente.dev/vikunja/api/issues/1249#issuecomment-36094

n8n already has integrations for discourse, zulip, invoiceninja, zammad and many more - by tapping into its ecosystem gitea can be integrated much more easily with other open-source tools (and even non-FOSS tools) for a coherent user experience.

Even imports from Github or other forges might be realised over that in the future, so that you don't need to keep creating specific connections but use their abstraction layer.

That would actually make sense to implement. I have no idea how complicated it could be, but if you run Gitea within a more complex organization, you could implement complex automation tasks with almost no effort on Gitea's end.

not sure this is solved by that, as a proper n8n integration also adds some nodes on their side I think, but I have not gotten around to using it yet

Well, the primary problem I can see (which probably also confused @techknowlogick) :
From your description, if I were to implement the integration, I'd have absolutely no idea what would need to be done to integrate n8n.
I've even looked at their website and documentation for about 10 minutes, and I still have no idea.
I agree that it is (partially) related to #1089, but I don't know what else it entails…

I did had a quic look into there youtube channel, for my understanding it is https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/issues/1089 on our side, the rest n8n has to program on there site (mostly to by using the existing rest api)
