This workflow file publishes new action releases to the immutable action package of the same name as this repo.
This is part of the Immutable Actions project which is not yet fully released to the public. First party actions like this one are part of our initial testing of this feature.
We lose the more normal looking export in favor of the `return` statement already traditional to this action, and thus can handle await statements without an ESM conversion.
This is a separate commit from the former because I think the next major version of this action should switch to ESM, revert this commit, and use the more standard export notation in all supported languages.
Both of the .cts and .mts flavors. Because this action is written in CommonJS both have to compile to CommonJS in order to execute.
As it is TypeScript there's already an expectation of some slowness, so I went with the approach of running the script via the node VM module. While a cleaner approach, it has the caveat that root level await in the script doesn't work. That should become available if https://github.com/actions/github-script/issues/457 is completed.
`fn.name` was introduced in Node 0.10.0, so this improves test suite maintainability without changing the minimum node version.
Also added a test that for certain proves that Promises can be awaited.
We are exposing the async-function argument type for jsDoc
type declaration support. This means that we now could do:
"npm i -D @types/github-script@github:actions/github-script"
and the add:
"@param {import('@types/github-script').AsyncFunctionArguments}
AsyncFunctionArguments".
This could obviously be done in other ways too, like using
"@typed-actions/github-script" instead. But it seems better
to use the actual source repository instead of a third-party
library to import the type declaration.
When the action 'debug' input is not set, default to the current
runner debug state. This ensures that the Octokit client request logs
are included automatically when you re-run a job with debug enabled.
