Using concurrency, expressions, and a test matrix

Example overview

Este artigo usa um fluxo de trabalho de exemplo para demonstrar alguns dos principais recursos de CI do GitHub Actions. When this workflow is triggered, it tests your code using a matrix of test combinations with npm test.

O diagrama a seguir mostra uma visão de alto nível das etapas do fluxo de trabalho e como elas são executadas no trabalho:

Understanding the example

A tabela a seguir explica como cada um desses recursos é usado ao criar um fluxo de trabalho GitHub Actions.

Code	Explanation
YAML `name: Node.js Tests`	O nome do fluxo de trabalho, como aparece na guia "Ações" do repositório do GitHub.
YAML `on:`	The `on` keyword lets you define the events that trigger when the workflow is run. You can define multiple events here. For more information, see "Triggering a workflow."
YAML `workflow_dispatch:`	Add the `workflow_dispatch` event if you want to be able to manually run this workflow in the UI. For more information, see `workflow_dispatch`.
YAML `pull_request:`	Add the `pull_request` event, so that the workflow runs automatically every time a pull request is created or updated. For more information, see `pull_request`.
YAML `push: branches: - main`	Add the `push` event, so that the workflow runs automatically every time a commit is pushed to a branch matching the filter `main`. For more information, see `push`.
YAML `permissions: contents: read pull-requests: read`	Modifies the default permissions granted to `GITHUB_TOKEN`. This will vary depending on the needs of your workflow. For more information, see "Assigning permissions to jobs."
YAML `concurrency: group: '${{ github.workflow }} @ ${{ github.event.pull_request.head.label \|\| github.head_ref \|\| github.ref }}'`	Creates a concurrency group for specific events, and uses the `\|\|` operator to define fallback values. For more information, see "Using concurrency."
YAML `cancel-in-progress: true`	Cancels any currently running job or workflow in the same concurrency group.
YAML `jobs:`	Groups together all the jobs that run in the workflow file.
YAML `test:`	Defines a job with the ID `test` that is stored within the `jobs` key.
YAML `runs-on: ${{ fromJSON('["ubuntu-latest", "self-hosted"]')[github.repository == 'github/docs-internal'] }}`	Configures the job to run on a GitHub-hosted runner or a self-hosted runner, depending on the repository running the workflow. In this example, the job will run on a self-hosted runner if the repository is named `docs-internal` and is within the `github` organization. If the repository doesn't match this path, then it will run on an `ubuntu-latest` runner hosted by GitHub. For more information on these options see "Choosing the runner for a job."
YAML `timeout-minutes: 60`	Sets the maximum number of minutes to let the job run before it is automatically canceled. For more information, see `timeout-minutes`.
YAML `strategy:`	This section defines the build matrix for your jobs.
YAML `fail-fast: false`	Setting `fail-fast` to `false` prevents GitHub from cancelling all in-progress jobs if any matrix job fails.
YAML `matrix: test-group: [ content, graphql, meta, rendering, routing, unit, linting, translations, ]`	Creates a matrix named `test-group`, with an array of test groups. These values match the names of test groups that will be run by `npm test`.
YAML `steps:`	Groups together all the steps that will run as part of the `test` job. Each job in a workflow has its own `steps` section.
YAML `- name: Check out repo uses: actions/checkout@v3 with: lfs: ${{ matrix.test-group == 'content' }} persist-credentials: 'false'`	The `uses` keyword tells the job to retrieve the action named `actions/checkout`. This is an action that checks out your repository and downloads it to the runner, allowing you to run actions against your code (such as testing tools). You must use the checkout action any time your workflow will run against the repository's code or you are using an action defined in the repository. Some extra options are provided to the action using the `with` key.
YAML - name: Figure out which docs-early-access branch to checkout, if internal repo if: ${{ github.repository == 'github/docs-internal' }} id: check-early-access uses: actions/github-script@v6 env: BRANCH_NAME: ${{ github.head_ref \|\| github.ref_name }} with: github-token: ${{ secrets.DOCUBOT_REPO_PAT }} result-encoding: string script: \| // If being run from a PR, this becomes 'my-cool-branch'. // If run on main, with the `workflow_dispatch` action for // example, the value becomes 'main'. const { BRANCH_NAME } = process.env try { const response = await github.repos.getBranch({ owner: 'github', repo: 'docs-early-access', BRANCH_NAME, }) console.log(`Using docs-early-access branch called '${BRANCH_NAME}'.`) return BRANCH_NAME } catch (err) { if (err.status === 404) { console.log(`There is no docs-early-access branch called '${BRANCH_NAME}' so checking out 'main' instead.`) return 'main' } throw err }	If the current repository is the `github/docs-internal` repository, this step uses the `actions/github-script` action to run a script to check if there is a branch called `docs-early-access`.
YAML `- name: Check out docs-early-access too, if internal repo if: ${{ github.repository == 'github/docs-internal' }} uses: actions/checkout@v3 with: repository: github/docs-early-access token: ${{ secrets.DOCUBOT_REPO_PAT }} path: docs-early-access ref: ${{ steps.check-early-access.outputs.result }}`	If the current repository is the `github/docs-internal` repository, this step checks out the branch from the `github/docs-early-access` that was identified in the previous step.
YAML `- name: Merge docs-early-access repo's folders if: ${{ github.repository == 'github/docs-internal' }} run: \| mv docs-early-access/assets assets/images/early-access mv docs-early-access/content content/early-access mv docs-early-access/data data/early-access rm -r docs-early-access`	If the current repository is the `github/docs-internal` repository, this step uses the `run` keyword to execute shell commands to move the `docs-early-access` repository's folders into the main repository's folders.
YAML `- name: Checkout LFS objects run: git lfs checkout`	This step runs a command to check out LFS objects from the repository.
YAML - name: Gather files changed uses: trilom/file-changes-action@a6ca26c14274c33b15e6499323aac178af06ad4b id: get_diff_files with: # So that `steps.get_diff_files.outputs.files` becomes # a string like `foo.js path/bar.md` output: ' '	This step uses the `trilom/file-changes-action` action to gather the files changed in the pull request, so they can be analyzed in the next step. This example is pinned to a specific version of the action, using the `a6ca26c14274c33b15e6499323aac178af06ad4b` SHA.
YAML `- name: Insight into changed files run: \| echo "${{ steps.get_diff_files.outputs.files }}" > get_diff_files.txt`	This step runs a shell command that uses an output from the previous step to create a file containing the list of files changed in the pull request.
YAML `- name: Setup node uses: actions/setup-node@v3 with: node-version: 16.14.x cache: npm`	This step uses the `actions/setup-node` action to install the specified version of the `node` software package on the runner, which gives you access to the `npm` command.
YAML `- name: Install dependencies run: npm ci`	This step runs the `npm ci` shell command to install the npm software packages for the project.
YAML `- name: Cache nextjs build uses: actions/cache@v3 with: path: .next/cache key: ${{ runner.os }}-nextjs-${{ hashFiles('package*.json') }}`	This step uses the `actions/cache` action to cache the Next.js build, so that the workflow will attempt to retrieve a cache of the build, and not rebuild it from scratch every time. For more information, see "Caching dependencies to speed up workflows."
YAML `- name: Run build script run: npm run build`	This step runs the build script.
YAML `- name: Run tests env: DIFF_FILE: get_diff_files.txt CHANGELOG_CACHE_FILE_PATH: tests/fixtures/changelog-feed.json run: npm test -- tests/${{ matrix.test-group }}/`	This step runs the tests using `npm test`, and the test matrix provides a different value for `${{ matrix.test-group }}` for each job in the matrix. It uses the `DIFF_FILE` environment variable to know which files have changed, and uses the `CHANGELOG_CACHE_FILE_PATH` environment variable for the changelog cache file.
