This is a very small set of utilities for working with .NET Core based GitHub Actions.
This library is intended particularly at making it easier to build Docker container Actions.
It contains utilities for:
- logging
- dealing with inputs and environment variables
- talking to GitHub APIs (with retry)
The Logger class is a simple wrapper around the System.Console class. It provides a few convenience methods for logging messages to the console in a way Actions can understand.
The ActionContext class provides methods for reading and validating both environment variables and inputs. As a matter of fact, to avoid having to deal with container args, inputs are read from environment variables!
This namespace provides various GitHub specific utilities.
The DefaultVariables class defines useful constants for referring to default environment variables exposed to Actions runners.
The GitHub class defines two clients for talking to GitHub APIs, Rest and GraphQL.
The MarkersParser class provides utilities for parsing and formatting simple Markers. They are meant to be one-liner embedded in various text files (Markdown, YAML, etc.).
The Templates class provides basic templating capabilities using Liquid to parse templates from string or files. It comes with basic support for Markers too and can be used to render arbitrary supplied variables.
