Github Action

[allanpersson]

Describe the bug
Need help with the script for the following in my github action.

Trigger

• On every release from official home-assistant repo ( https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/releases )

Jsonlint

Shellcheck

Esphome stable / Beta / Dev:

• Esphome version
• Esphome check

My Workflow file:
https://github.com/allanpersson/home-assistant-config/blob/master/.github/workflows/home-assistant.yml

The rest of the workflow file is working :)

Documentation:

• https://github.com/pipeline-components
• https://help.github.com/en/github/automating-your-workflow-with-github-actions/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#onpushpull_requestbranchestags

Hi allan,

for the trigger it seems to me you can do something like:

on:
  release:
    types: published

for your other jobs, your job currently fails with:

jsonlint:
find: unrecognized: |

spellcheck:

/entrypoint.sh: exec: line 13: -: not found
##[error]Docker run failed with exit code 127

looks like your entrypoint.sh script does not like the "-" in your config file

esphome:
`esphome: error: argument command: invalid choice: 'python' (choose from 'config', 'compile', 'upload', 'logs', 'run', 'clean-mqtt', 'wizard', 'mqtt-fingerprint', 'version', 'clean', 'dashboard', 'vscode', 'update-all')

so all of them have args syntax issues.

Thanks for your help and input :)

From the Github forum i got an answer that its not possible to trigger from updates in other peoples repo, but i have tried to update the workflow with your suggestion to see what happens :)

I'm not sure exactly what i have to change?

I know :) But i don't know what arg i need to use to make it work, i honestly dont understand how this works, i have just copied from other persons workflow to come so far :D

You're right this won't work anyway because of this restriction, btw you can totally remove:

- "home-assistant/home-assistant/releases/tag/*"

so you're left with:

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '* 23 * * *'

not realtime but once a day should be enough,

then for the args syntax you can start by removing the offending chars and see how it goes.

So you can not do it with a single action, but there seems to be a way to do it using an other action to trigger the first one, see:

Trigger a GitHub Action when another repository creates a new release

name: Get HA latest release version
on:
  schedule:
    - cron:  '0 10 * * *'
jobs:
  get-version:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v1
      - name: Fetch release version
        run: |
          curl -sL https://api.github.com/repos/home-assistant/home-assistant/releases/latest | \
          jq -r ".tag_name" > release-versions/home-assistant-latest.txt
      - name: Check for modified files
        id: git-check
        run: echo ::set-output name=modified::$(if git diff-index --quiet HEAD --; then echo "false"; else echo "true"; fi)
      - name: Commit latest release version
        if: steps.git-check.outputs.modified == 'true'
        run: |
          git config --global user.name 'allanpersson'
          git config --global user.email '[email protected]'
          git remote set-url origin https://x-access-token:${{ secrets.REPO_SCOPED_TOKEN }}@github.com/$GITHUB_REPOSITORY
          git checkout "${GITHUB_REF:11}"
          git commit -am "New release version"
          git push

then you trigger on:

on:
  push:
    paths:
      - 'release-versions/*'
