build¶

The build workflow builds the snap found in the repository using the canonical/action-build action, and uploads the result as a workflow artifact.

The workflow builds a matrix over the snapcraft-source-subdir and runs-on inputs, so a caller can build several snaps, or the same snap on several runners, in a single run.

Usage¶

jobs:
  build:
    permissions:
      contents: read
    uses: canonical/robotics-actions-workflows/.github/workflows/build.yaml@main

Inputs¶

Input	Type	Default	Required	Description
`git-ref`	string	`${{ github.ref }}`	no	The branch to checkout.
`runs-on`	string	`ubuntu-latest`	no	The runner(s) to use. Accepts a JSON list, for example `'["ubuntu-latest", "self-hosted"]'`.
`snapcraft-args`	string	`''`	no	The arguments to pass to `snapcraft` (pack).
`snapcraft-channel`	string	`latest/stable`	no	The channel from which to install Snapcraft.
`snapcraft-enable-experimental-extensions`	boolean	`false`	no	Whether to enable Snapcraft experimental extensions.
`snapcraft-source-subdir`	string	`.`	no	The path where to execute Snapcraft. Accepts a JSON list to build multiple snaps, for example `'["bar", "foo"]'`.

Secrets¶

This workflow takes no secrets.

Outputs¶

The workflow declares no workflow outputs. Each built snap is uploaded as a workflow artifact named workflow-build-snap-<snap-file-name>-<branch>, with a retention of 10 days. The run fails if no snap file is produced.
