artifacts2release

A small Github Action for publishing artefacts to an existing release.

Usage

This Action should run after creating artifacts, inside it own job running on ubuntu.

At the example below you can see an minimal workflow, which publishs all previous created artifacts to release. Make sure your GITHUB_TOKEN has enable write access. Ensure also artifacts2release runs after the jobs, which are creating the artifacts, by using needs: [SOME_JOBS] and that it is only run once per Release by checking the release type.
