Brads Github Actions

A collection of Github Actions. https://github.com/features/actions

Cancel Redundant

This action will use the Github Workflow API to cancel all queued and in progress jobs for the current branch or PR.

Influenced by:

• https://github.com/styfle/cancel-workflow-action
• https://github.com/n1hility/cancel-previous-runs

jobs:
  init:
    if: "! contains(github.event.head_commit.message, '[skip ci]')"
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: brad-jones/actions/[email protected]
        with:
          token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

Now just make all your other jobs depend on init and they will a) be canceled if a newer commit is pushed and b) they will never run if the ubiquitous [skip ci] text in included in your commit message.

NOTE: The GITHUB_TOKEN provided for PRs will not have enough permissions to cancel jobs. So if you want this to work for PRs you would need to setup a second token that has the repo & workflow scopes.

Search Replace File

This is a simple wrapper for the https://www.npmjs.com/package/replace-in-file module.

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: brad-jones/actions/[email protected]
        with:
          files: ./version.js
          from: /commit-sha-goes-here/
          to: ${{ github.sha }}

• files: should be a valid glob file path.
• from: is expected to be a Regular Expression
• to: the text to use as the replacement for all matches

    steps:
