Overview

Simple Node.js application to demonstrate the use of GitHub Actions

Look Ma, no Makefile!

All the tasks necessary for testing, building and deploying this code is already defined in .github/workflows/ so why would you want to also create a Makefile for local development? Now you can use act to run the actions locally!

Try these:

act -j test - run the tests
act - run the the entire pipeline
act -l - view the execution graph

required

env

act -j env - takes .env file by default❗
act -j env --env-file .env.example

workflow dispatch

act -j dispatch --input A=from --input B=cmd
act -j dispatch -e .\payload.json
-j payloadEv -s GITHUB_TOKEN="$(gh auth token)" -e .\payload.json

github

act -j deploy -s GITHUB_TOKEN="$(gh auth token)"
