This GitHub action reduces CI execution time by pre-building JavaScript, TypeScript, and Docker container actions.

This action compiles JavaScript GitHub Action into a single file (with cache files if you want), and pushes it to GitHub. Compilation is powered by zeit/ncc.

TypeScript is also supported. Specify your *.ts file to action.yml#runs.main

Since there is no need to commit node_modules, your GitHub Action can be released quickly with less time for pushes during action development and pulls during CI execution.

This Action written in TypeScript has been compiled by itself and released. See pre-built commit

This action builds an image from your Dockerfile, and pushes it to the Docker registry, and rewrites action.yml#rans.image by pushed tag.

The job just pulls Docker image when using the action, and there's no time to build the Dockerfile.

• JavaScript / TypeScript
• Docker container

The description action.yml can be read as action.yaml.

1. This action detects that your action is a JS/TS action by action.yml
2. This action compiles a file (e.g. index.js) specified in action.yml#runs.main into dist/index.js
3. Replaces the value of runs.main with dist/index.js.
4. Remove files exclude /action.yml and dist/*.
5. Checkout a new branch with the name specified in push-branch.
6. Commit all changes.
7. Force push new branch (and tags) to the origin

• push-branch Required
  The name of branch to push compiled file.

• release-tags optional
  The names to tag the compiled file commit.

• commit-message optional, default: [auto]
  The commit message for the compiled.
