Demo

Filter
In every runtime environment for an Action we have file that holds the JSON data for the event PushEvent payload. From that we can get the commit authors name and other important data. We can skip this action by checking this data.
Arguments
- First argument - JQ selector which will select data from the event data file
- Second argument: grep regex
- Third argument: verbosity level (
-v|-vv)
Examples
Create PR if the commit message contains #pr hashtag
steps:
- name: Create PR
uses: funivan/[email protected]
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
with:
args: .head_commit.message .*#pr.*
Check if branch ends with -pr word
args: .repository.default_branch .*-pr
Output data that is used for the condition
Just add third parameter -v
args: .repository.default_branch .*-pr -v
If you need to get output (response body) of the API call use -vv (very verbose level)
How it works
Under the hood we will fetch commit message and check if it contains #pr word.
result=$(echo "some test commit message #pr" | grep "^.*#pr.*$" | wc -l )
If result is positive - we will continue our action. If negative - stop it immediately.
