 This action causes CI tests to fail by default. However, if you do not want CI tests failing just because of this action, simply set `alwaysPassCI` as true in the CHECKS field. **An invalid config file will always cause the action to fail.**

-* [`pull_request_target`](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/events-that-trigger-workflows#pull_request_target) event trigger should be used (not [`pull_request`](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/events-that-trigger-workflows#pull_request)) in order to support checking PRs from forks. This was added in `v1.3.2`. See [#8](https://github.com/thehanimo/pr-title-checker/issues/8).
-* `pass_on_octokit_error` is an optional input which defaults to false. Setting it to true will prevent the CI from failing when an octokit error occurs. This is useful when the environment this action is run in is not consistent. For e.g, it could be a missing GITHUB_TOKEN. Thanks to [@bennycode](https://github.com/bennycode) for pointing this out.
 
-* `configuration_path` is also an optional input which defaults to `".github/pr-title-checker-config.json"`. If you wish to store your config file elsewhere, pass in the path here.

+## Other ways to specify config file
+
+### 1. Remote URL to a valid JSON file
+```yaml
+...
+    steps:
+      - uses: thehanimo/[email protected]
+        with:
+          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
+          pass_on_octokit_error: false
+          remote_configuration_path: "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/grpc/grpc/master/.github/pr_title_checker_config.json"
+...
+```
+Note that this has to be a url pointing to a valid, raw json file. See [#28](https://github.com/thehanimo/pr-title-checker/issues/28)
+
+### 2. Config file in a GitHub repo
+```yaml
+...
+    steps:
+      - uses: thehanimo/[email protected]
+        with:
+          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
+          pass_on_octokit_error: false
+          github_configuration_owner: RocketChat #(optional. defaults to the owner of the repo in which the action is run)
+          github_configuration_repo: Rocket.Chat #(optional. defaults to the repo in which the action is run)
+          github_configuration_path: .github/pr-title-checker-config.json #(optional. defaults to .github/pr-title-checker-config.json)
+          github_configuration_ref: <named branch, tag, or SHA> #(optional. defaults to the latest commit on the default branch or, if the repo specified is the same as the one on which the action is running, it defaults to the current context's sha)
+          github_configuration_token: ${{ secrets.YOUR_TOKEN }} #(optional. defaults to GITHUB_TOKEN)
+...
+```
+
+### 3. Config file in the local file system of the action
+```yaml
+...
+    steps:
+      - uses: thehanimo/[email protected]
+        with:
+          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
+          pass_on_octokit_error: false
+          local_configuration_path: .github/actions/enforce-pr-titles/config.json
+...
+```
+This is useful if a repo containing the config file is pulled in a previous step using, for e.g., actions/checkout. See [#36](https://github.com/thehanimo/pr-title-checker/issues/36)
