A Github Action that keeps your Angular CLI-based projects up-to-date via automated pull requests.
The action automatically runs ng update for you, updates @angular related dependencies and files, and creates/updates a PR with the changes.
You just have to merge the created PR back into your codebase, once ready.
To get started, create a workflow under .github/workflows/ folder (eg: .github/workflows/ngx-uptodate.yml), with the following content:
name: "Update Angular Action"
on: # when the action should run. Can also be a CRON or in response to external events. see https://git.io/JeBz1
push
jobs:
ngxUptodate:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Updating ng dependencies # the magic happens here !
uses: tinesoft/ngx-uptodate@master
with:
repo-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
See action.yml for complete list of options you can customize. See Creating a Workflow file for more informations about writing workflows.
This is what the created PR will look like :
When the action successfully runs, it produces the following outputs, that you can use them in further steps in your workflow:
pr-number: the number of the PR that have been created on Githubng-update-result: an array of PackageToUpdate, that summarizes the packages that have been updated.
Contributions are always welcome! Just fork the project, work on your feature/bug fix, and submit it. You can also contribute by creating issues. Please read the contribution guidelines for more information.
Kudos 👍🏾to people at Codestar and their blog post for the original idea 💡that led me to write this Github Action.
