This is an action that tries to make it easy to maintain COPR repositories for Fedora. To create a new package in COPR it requires the user to go into the COPR web portal and create a new package with the required repo configuration.
This package automates that process so that the repository can add itself to a COPR project. It also allows you to trigger builds for the created package such that you can trigger builds from Github Actions instead of relying on SCM monitoring from COPR.
You need to put your COPR API configuration in a secret and pass it as COPR_API_TOKEN_CONFIG environment variable.
Example job to trigger a COPR build for a specific package:
jobs:
selftest:
permissions:
contents: read
packages: read
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
container:
image: ghcr.io/${{ github.repository_owner }}/${{ github.event.repository.name }}/copr-build:latest
steps:
- name: checkout to execute local action
uses: actions/checkout@v3
- name: trigger copr build
uses: akdev1l/copr-build@main
id: selftest
env:
COPR_API_TOKEN_CONFIG: ${{ secrets.COPR_API_TOKEN_CONFIG }}
with:
owner: akdev
package-name: selftest-copr-build
project-name: personal
git-remote: https://github.com/akdev1l/ublue-update.git| Parameter | Description | Required | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
owner |
COPR Project Owner | No | ${{github.repository_owner}} |
package-name |
COPR Package Name | No | ${{github.event.repository.name}} |
project-name |
COPR Project Name | No | ${{github.repository_owner}} |
git-remote |
Git Remote to build | No | https://github.com/${{github.repository_owner}}/${{github.event.repository.name}} |
committish |
Git committish to build | No | main |
OTE: The package package-name will be created if it doesn't exist in COPR.
- Go to https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/api/
- Generate a new configuration if the current one is not valid. It will expire every six months.
- Copy that output into a GitHub repository secret (or org-level secret)
