Spin Plugin Releaser

spin-plugin-releaser is a GitHub action (backed by a Spin app deployed on Fermyon Cloud) that automates the update of plugin manifests in spin-plugins repo when a new version of your spin plugin is released. If a release is marked as a 'prerelease' in github, it will not be released to the spin-plugins index.

To trigger spin-plugin-releaser you can use a github-action which sends the event to the bot.

Basic Setup

• Make sure you have enabled github actions for your repo

• Add a .spin-plugin.json.tmpl template file at the root of your repo. Refer to cloud-plugin repo for an example.

• To setup the action, add the following snippet after the step that publishes the new release and assets:

  - name: Update new version in spin plugins repo
    uses: rajatjindal/spin-plugin-releaser@main
    with:
      github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
      upload_checksums: true

Inputs for the action

Key	Default Value	Description
template_file	.spin-plugin.json.tmpl	The path to template file
upload_checksums	false	uploads the checksums-.txt file to the release

Limitations of spin-plugin-releaser

• only works for repos hosted on github right now
• The first version of plugin has to be submitted manually, by plugin author, to the spin-plugins repo
