zengin / commit Goto Github PK

Commit and push changes back upstream. Lightweight action using only alpine and shell scripting.

Don't use v4 anymore as GitHub changed the way checkout works so it no longer works.

name: publish

on:
  push:
    branches:
    - master
    
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: checkout
      uses: actions/checkout@v2
    # make the changes between checkout and push
    - name: push
      uses: actions-x/commit@v5

All parameters are optional, with no parameters provided, these defaults are used:

• name - the actor name, so if your github name is example the name will be example
• email - the actor name @localhost, if your github name is example the email is example@localhost
• message - Automatically updated using GitHub Actions
• branch - defaults to the branch that triggered the action, so if you pushed to master, the branch is master
• files - . (meaning all files in the whole tree)
• repository - you can specify the repository to push the code to, default is origin (e.g. the same repository)
• token - if you want to push to a different repository you need to provide your own token, otherwise you can leave it to the default value which is provided by GitHub Actions and works for the same repository
• force - you can specify true to perform force push, default is to not use force push
• directory - the working directory to do the commands in, default is . (current directory)
