repoman-repo-qa (Repoman on Repository QA)

Running repoman on an overlay repository.

This GitHub action is inspired by (and based on) lucianposton initial idea. Given that it was not maintained and PR on that repository have been open for more than two years, I fixed the open issues and created another action that is ready to be used.

This GitHub action runs repoman on an ebuild repository to find QA issues.

Usage

Create a workflow file in your repository e.g. .github/workflows/repoman.yml. An example workflow file is provided below. For more information, see Creating a workflow file.

Example workflow

name: 'Continuous Integration for my marvelous repository'
on: [push, pull_request]
jobs:
    repoman:
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        steps:
            - uses: actions/checkout@v2
            - uses: rafspiny/repoman-ebuild-qa@v2

Input Parameters

The following inputs can be specified in the workflow file using the with keyword syntax.

Input	Description	Usage
repoman_args	Additional arguments to pass after repoman full. Defaults to -dx. Note: This parameter will undergo shell wordsplitting and globbing.	optional
path	Path to cd to before starting repoman. The path is relative to the checked out repository. If unspecified or empty, repoman runs in the root of the repository.	optional
portage_version	The portage version to download containing repoman e.g. 2.3.80. latest is the default value, which uses the latest released version.	optional
