Could you release major version(s) of your GitHub action?

[jmfayard]

Bonjour! 🇫🇷

I contribute to GitHub Actions Kotlin DSL which provides an alternative to write GitHub Actions not in YAML but in a type-safe programming language: Kotlin.

To this end we provide type-safe wrappers for currently 72 (and counting) wrapper actions. Those type-safe wrappers are generated from its action.yml which we update when it goes to a new major version, for example actions/cache@v2 to actions/cache@v3

And of course we support your action as well!

Unfortunately when an action don't have a major version, which is what GitHub recommands, we are forced to update manually for every minor version, like from appleboy/scp-action/v0.1.2 to appleboy/scp-action/v0.1.3

See our issue here

Would you consider creating a major version for your action?
That would make our life easier, and the life of your users easier in general.

You can find here the recommendations from GitHub:

(see Recommendations in particular)

Hey @jmfayard, I will be releasing a major version pretty soon. It's been long overdue and should address many of the existing issues in the Action.

Note: in practice this is done by pushing a tag v1 to your latest 1.x.y release

git tag -fa v1 -m "Update v1 tag"
git push origin v1 --force

Hi, this is great to hear, can you please include an argument to locate a Dockerfile in a subdirectory? I looked at source and couldn't find that.
