# Create a JavaScript Action using TypeScript
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Use this template to bootstrap the creation of a TypeScript action.:rocket:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This template includes compilation support, tests, a validation workflow, publishing, and versioning guidance.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you are new, there's also a simpler introduction. See the [Hello World JavaScript Action](https://github.com/actions/hello-world-javascript-action)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Create an action from this template
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Click the `Use this Template` and provide the new repo details for your action
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Code in Main
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
> First, you'll need to have a reasonably modern version of `node` handy. This won't work with versions older than 9, for instance.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Install the dependencies
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
$ npm install
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Build the typescript and package it for distribution
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
$ npm run build && npm run package
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Run the tests :heavy_check_mark:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
$ npm test
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
PASS ./index.test.js
|
|
||||||
✓ throws invalid number (3ms)
|
|
||||||
✓ wait 500 ms (504ms)
|
|
||||||
✓ test runs (95ms)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
...
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Change action.yml
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The action.yml defines the inputs and output for your action.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Update the action.yml with your name, description, inputs and outputs for your action.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
See the [documentation](https://help.github.com/en/articles/metadata-syntax-for-github-actions)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Change the Code
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Most toolkit and CI/CD operations involve async operations so the action is run in an async function.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```javascript
|
|
||||||
import * as core from '@actions/core';
|
|
||||||
...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
async function run() {
|
|
||||||
try {
|
|
||||||
...
|
|
||||||
}
|
|
||||||
catch (error) {
|
|
||||||
core.setFailed(error.message);
|
|
||||||
}
|
|
||||||
}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
run()
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
See the [toolkit documentation](https://github.com/actions/toolkit/blob/master/README.md#packages) for the various packages.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Publish to a distribution branch
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Actions are run from GitHub repos so we will checkin the packed dist folder.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Then run [ncc](https://github.com/zeit/ncc) and push the results:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
$ npm run package
|
|
||||||
$ git add dist
|
|
||||||
$ git commit -a -m "prod dependencies"
|
|
||||||
$ git push origin releases/v1
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note: We recommend using the `--license` option for ncc, which will create a license file for all of the production node modules used in your project.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Your action is now published! :rocket:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
See the [versioning documentation](https://github.com/actions/toolkit/blob/master/docs/action-versioning.md)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Validate
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can now validate the action by referencing `./` in a workflow in your repo (see [test.yml](.github/workflows/test.yml))
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```yaml
|
```yaml
|
||||||
uses: ./
|
name: test
|
||||||
with:
|
on:
|
||||||
milliseconds: 1000
|
pull_request:
|
||||||
|
branches:
|
||||||
|
- main
|
||||||
|
push:
|
||||||
|
branches:
|
||||||
|
- main
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
jobs:
|
||||||
|
lint:
|
||||||
|
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
|
||||||
|
steps:
|
||||||
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
|
||||||
|
- uses: jdxcode/rtx-action@v1
|
||||||
|
with:
|
||||||
|
tool_versions: |
|
||||||
|
shellcheck 0.9.0
|
||||||
|
- run: shellcheck scripts/*.sh
|
||||||
|
test:
|
||||||
|
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
|
||||||
|
steps:
|
||||||
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
|
||||||
|
- uses: jdxcode/rtx-action@v1
|
||||||
|
# .tool-versions will be read from repo root
|
||||||
|
- run: node ./my_app.js
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
See the [actions tab](https://github.com/actions/typescript-action/actions) for runs of this action! :rocket:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Usage:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
After testing you can [create a v1 tag](https://github.com/actions/toolkit/blob/master/docs/action-versioning.md) to reference the stable and latest V1 action
