Uploads artifacts from a GitHub action into a GitHub release.
Optionally creates the release if it doesn't exist.
Example usage with an intermediate build artifacts stage:
on:
push:
tags: "*"
name: Build & Release
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@master
- name: build
run: ./build.sh
- name: upload artifacts
uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3.1.0
with:
name: artifacts
path: build/*
if-no-files-found: warn
retention-days: 1
release:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
needs: [build]
permissions:
contents: write
steps:
- name: download artifacts
uses: actions/download-artifact@v3
with:
name: artifacts
- name: create release
uses: swisstxt/github-action-release-artifacts@main
with:
tag: ${{ github.ref_name }}
create_release: true
release_name: "my project ${{ github.ref_name }}"
permissions:
contents: write
files
- List of files or paths to upload, separated by space. Upload all files in the workspace if missing. The paths are treated as workspace-relative.tag
- Create a release from a specific tag. If missing, try to derive it from the current job's commit ID.create_release
- If false, fails when the release doesn't exist. If true and the release doesn't exist, it is created automatically.release_name
- When creating a new release, use the value of this input as the release name. Otherwise, use the name of the tag.create_draft
- When creating a release, specifies if a normal (false) or draft (true) release should be created. Ignored when not creating a release.
Note: If you use the create_draft
option, a new draft release will be created on every run.
Without the option, assets will be uploaded into an existing release.
This action uses an Alpine Linux build container and does all its work with busybox, curl and jq.
GitHub uploads can sometimes fail on the first attempt. If this happens, retry the release step on your Action until all artifacts have been uploaded.
