Create plugin archive

This action can be used to create plugin archives in a controlled and isolated environment via GitHub Actions.

To achieve that, the reusable workflow:

  1. Installs dependencies (including dev-dependencies) defined in composer.json
  2. Executes inpsyde/composer-assets-compiler if required & configured by the package
  3. Executes inpsyde/wp-translation-downloader if required & configured by the package
  4. Executes PHP-Scoper if configured by the package
  5. Executes Rector if configured by the package
  6. Re-installs dependencies without dev-dependencies
  7. Sets current commit hash and plugin version in the plugin's main file
  8. Runs wp dist-archive to create the final archive (with builtin support for a .distignore file)
  9. Uploads it as an artifact for download or further processing

Simple usage example

name: Create release package
on:
  workflow_dispatch:
    inputs:
      PACKAGE_VERSION:
        description: 'Package Version'
        required: true
jobs:
  create_archive:
    uses: inpsyde/reusable-workflows/.github/workflows/build-plugin-archive.yml@main
    secrets:
      COMPOSER_AUTH_JSON: ${{ secrets.PACKAGIST_AUTH_JSON }}
    with:
      PLUGIN_MAIN_FILE: my-plugin.php
      PLUGIN_VERSION: ${{ inputs.PACKAGE_VERSION }}
      PRE_SCRIPT: |
        echo 'hello world!';

Configuration parameters

PHP_VERSION '8.2' PHP version to use when gathering production dependencies
PHP_VERSION_BUILD '8.2' PHP version to use when executing build tools
ARCHIVE_NAME '' The name of the zip archive (falls back to the repository name)
PLUGIN_MAIN_FILE 'index.php' The name of the main plugin file
PLUGIN_FOLDER_NAME '' The name of the plugin folder (falls back to the archive name, if set, or the repository name)
PLUGIN_VERSION - The new plugin version
PRE_SCRIPT '' Run custom shell code before creating the release archive
COMPILE_ASSETS_ARGS '-v --env=root' Set of arguments passed to Composer Asset Compiler

A note on PLUGIN_VERSION

The workflow will accept any arbitrary string and will use it without validation or sanitization. Adding this would mean reduced flexibility at increased complexity. Adding standardization/validation is encouraged but should take place in the controlling workflow, where the conventions and requirements of the project/team/client are known.
