Is it possible to add "Reviewers" through a Github pull request template

In the github web ui, in a pull request, I can click to add "Reviewers". I am wondering if there is a way to add these through the pull request templates, so I don't have to manually do it every time; if so how?

Bonus, is there a way to add an "Assignee", "Labels", or "Projects"?

While you will not able to add a reviewer using a pull request template you could /cc someone in the template to alert them to the pull request.

Another strategy to consider would be to use webhooks. You could use the pull request event webhook to alert you when a pull request has been opened. From there, you could create a small script that then assigns a reviewer using the create a review request API endpoint, whenever the webhook's payload shows that a pull request has been opened.
