This is a simple GitHub Action to query the Gradle services API for latest version information.

This is an expansion of some existing logic to automatically test Gradle plugins against upcoming RC builds, isolated in order to be easily reusable.

Contributing

As this is a Javascript action, it is subject to the quirks enforced on GitHub. Development should be done on Node 16 or later. Any text editor works, but we tend to use VS Code.

To set up a development environment:

  1. Clone this repository
  2. Install Node v16 or later
  3. (if the yarn command is not available), run corepack enable
  4. Fetch dependencies by running yarn install
  5. Open the project in VS Code: code . (or your choice of editor). The source to edit is in src/

After making changes, run yarn build to compile the TS source, producing the final dist/index.js file that Actions actually reads. Yes, for some reason GitHub makes us commit this file to the repository. A CI check will ensure that this step has been done when pull requests are published.

Making a release

Simply create a release based on a tag with the format vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (all 3 elements are required). An Actions workflow will automatically run to update the alias tags of vMAJOR and vMAJOR.MINOR.
