Hello everyone I am currently writing a workflow to auto merge when a pull request is made but I am stuck at an error telling me my token is not set more specifically: 2023-02-19T02:09:08.581Z ERROR environment variable GITHUB_TOKEN not set!. I have set all my tokens in my repo and settings tab. Any help would be appreciated.

pascalgn/automerge-action accepts GITHUB_TOKEN as an env variable, not as an argument. So it should be:
- name: Merge pull requests
uses: pascalgn/automerge-action#v0.14.1
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.TOKEN }}
Refer to the documentation: https://github.com/pascalgn/automerge-action#usage

I have modified the Github workflow on a practice app to make it change version and patch with every push to the master branch.
In Github workflows - it says this process has been successful:
However when I check under releases and tags - no releases or tags are listed.
Is there something I'm missing, here is my pipeline.yml
name: Deployment pipeline
on:
push:
branches:
- master
pull_request:
branches: [master]
types: [opened, synchronize]
jobs:
simple_deployment_pipeline:
runs-on: ubuntu-20.04
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#v3
- uses: actions/setup-node#v3
with:
node-version: '16'
- name: npm install
run: npm install
- name: lint
run: npm run eslint
- name: build
run: npm run build
- name: test
run: npm run test
- name: e2e tests
uses: cypress-io/github-action#v4
with:
build: npm run
start: npm run start-prod
wait-on: http://localhost:5000
tag_release:
needs: [simple_deployment_pipeline]
runs-on: ubuntu-20.04
steps:
- name: Bump version and push tag
uses: anothrNick/github-tag-action#1.36.0
if: ${{ github.event_name == 'push' && !contains(join(github.event.commits.*.message, ' '), '#skip') }}
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
DEFAULT_BUMP: patch
RELEASE_BRANCHES: master
The log under tag_release looks like this:
Your problem, which can be inferred by the error message, is that you haven't checked out the code inside the job. This is noted in the readme of the dependent action.
name: Bump version
on:
push:
branches:
- master
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-22.04
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#v3
with:
fetch-depth: '0'
- name: Bump version and push tag
uses: anothrNick/github-tag-action#v1
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
This is a common mistake, many assume that the code should exist in the job by default, but once you get varying type of workflows you will understand some use cases where you don't actually need to checkout the local git repo.
Take a look at the action you are using and consider sticking to the #v1 tag or at the very least pick a more recent version (1.36 is over a year old).
I've been trying to follow the example provided by SonarCloud to set it up, but it doesn't work.
name: SonarCloud
on:
push:
branches:
- master
pull_request:
types: [opened, synchronize, reopened]
jobs:
build:
name: Build and analyze
runs-on: macos-latest
env:
BUILD_WRAPPER_OUT_DIR: build_wrapper_output_directory # Directory where build-wrapper output will be placed
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#v3
with:
fetch-depth: 0 # Shallow clones should be disabled for a better relevancy of analysis
- name: Install sonar-scanner and build-wrapper
uses: SonarSource/sonarcloud-github-c-cpp#v1
- name: Run build-wrapper
run: |
build-wrapper-macosx-x86 --out-dir ${{ env.BUILD_WRAPPER_OUT_DIR }}<insert_your_clean_build_command>
- name: Run sonar-scanner
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
SONAR_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.SONAR_TOKEN }}
run: |
sonar-scanner --define sonar.cfamily.build-wrapper-output="${{ env.BUILD_WRAPPER_OUT_DIR }}"
It always goes wrong in the Run build-wrapper-macosx-x86 production process.
Is there enough solution or sample code to guide me?
I have the following two actions, how can I make the second action be executed at the end of the first after making the first one commit and push?
Action1
on:
workflow_dispatch:
inputs:
name: Scrape Data
jobs:
build:
name: Build
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#master
- name: Build
run: npm install
- name: Scrape
run: npm run action
- uses: mikeal/publish-to-github-action#master
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} # GitHub sets this for you
Action2
on:
workflow_dispatch:
inputs:
name: Visit Data
jobs:
build:
name: Build
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#master
- name: Build
run: npm install
- name: Scrape
run: npm run visit
- uses: mikeal/publish-to-github-action#master
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} # GitHub sets this for you
You could use the workflow_run trigger on the second workflow.
Example:
name: Visit Data
on:
workflow_run:
workflows: ['Scrape Data'] # First workflow name
types:
- completed # can also use 'requested'
jobs:
build:
name: Build
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#master
- name: Build
run: npm install
- name: Scrape
run: npm run visit
- uses: mikeal/publish-to-github-action#master
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
Note that you can't use workflow inputs in that case (I observed you had it set, and if it's necessary you would need to use another trigger, for example through the Github API using a workflow dispatch event with a payload).
I have to do the following, every time a commit is done (so it can also be done by editing the file from the browser on Github), a Github action is called.
The Github action has to do the following:
Run the command found in the package.json or just run the ncc build command
What such a thing:
"build": "ncc build"
To then commit the build files.
After committing with the push, the 4 Github action test must be run.
How do you advise me to do?
I thought of such a thing:
on:
push:
branches:
- master
name: Build
jobs:
build:
name: Build
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#v2
name: Check out current commit
- name: Install
run: npm install
- name: Build
run: npm run build
- name: Commit
run: |
git config --local user.email "41898282+github-actions[bot]#users.noreply.github.com"
git config --local user.name "github-actions[bot]"
git add .
git commit -m "Build" -a
- name: Push
uses: ad-m/github-push-action#master
with:
github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
branch: ${{ github.ref }}
At the moment the test is like this for example, how can I do?
Test.yml
on:
push:
branches:
- master
name: "Testing"
jobs:
test_the_action:
name: Test the action
runs-on: ubuntu-18.04
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout#v2
- uses: suisei-cn/actions-download-file#master
id: downloadfile
name: Download a file
with:
url: "[API Endpoint](https://api.github.com/repos/suisei-cn/actions-download-file)"
target: public/
auto-match: true
- name: Display the file
run: head -n8 public/actions-download-file
There are two options. You can add jobs for each test in your main yml with the needs keyword or call your test yml with the workflow run event as trigger.
Option 1 with needs keyword:
on:
push:
branches:
- master
name: Build
jobs:
build:
name: Build
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- <your-build-steps>
test1:
name: Test
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
needs: build
steps:
- <your-test-steps>
Option 2 with workflow run as trigger:
on:
workflow_run:
workflows: ["<name-of-your-main-workflow>"]
types:
- completed
name: "Testing"
jobs:
test_the_action:
This option works only on default branch.
The workflow in file inrisk.packages.ci.yml generates a tag and a realise of the code when a push is done in the develop branch. The below works as expected.
name: Code Int
on:
push:
paths:
- 'infra/**'
jobs:
ci:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
# Checks-out to $GITHUB_WORKSPACE
- uses: actions/checkout#v2
- name: Basic Checks
run: |
whoami
ls -lah
pwd
- uses: actions/setup-node#v1
# Create a new release when on develop which triggers the deployment
- name: Bump version and push tag
if: github.ref == 'refs/heads/develop'
uses: mathieudutour/github-tag-action#v4.5
id: tag_version
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
- name: Create Release
if: github.ref == 'refs/heads/develop'
id: create_release
uses: actions/create-release#v1
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
with:
tag_name: ${{ steps.tag_version.outputs.new_tag }}
release_name: Release ${{ steps.tag_version.outputs.new_tag }}
draft: false
prerelease: false
The below workflow in file inrisk.packages.cd.yml and is suppose to be triggered when ever a tag/realise is created/published.
name: Code Deploy
on:
push:
tags:
- 'v*'
release:
types:
- published
- created
- released
jobs:
build-and-deploy:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
# Checks-out to $GITHUB_WORKSPACE
- uses: actions/checkout#v2
- uses: actions/setup-node#v1
- name: Install Yarn
run: npm install -g yarn
- uses: chrislennon/action-aws-cli#v1.1
- name: Install, Build and Deploy
run: |
whoami
ls -lah
pwd
The second workflow Code Deploy dose not get trigger after Code Int publishes/created a tag/realise
However when I manually create a realise/tag the second workflow Code Deploy get triggered
This seems to be by design as stated here .This is to stop recursive workflow runs.
I used this article to get around the problem
