Create a Custom GitHub Action

Create a Custom GitHub Action
GitHub Actions are a powerful tool to automate your workflow. They can be used to run tests, deploy your code, publish a package, and much more. The cool thing is, there's a GitHub Actions Marketplace where you can find a lot of actions created by... the community. But what if you can't find the action you need? You can create your own and publish it there! During this course, we'll create an action with Typescript that will add a label to new pull requests automatically. In this tutorial, we're going to see in detail how to: - Create a GitHub Action in Typescript - Expand our Action to support custom inputs - Integrate with GitHub's API to add labels to Pull Requests - Unit testing our action - Debugging in Visual Studio Code - Publishing our action to the GitHub Marketplace - Using our action in another repository - Some final touches to make our project more robust USEFUL RESOURCES Action repo: https://ift.tt/0IsMhvL Article: https://ift.tt/FQNp8iP Run Actions Locally with act: https://youtu.be/Ugonll0e2Os Trigger Actions Manually: https://youtu.be/KGfncu595pc Git Aliases: https://youtu.be/Uk4GnYoQx_I _______________________________ Hit like and subscribe for more content! :D Join the Discord community!
