## Some things I wish I'd known about Github Actions
|
|

|
You can't have an `env:` key defined in terms of another `env` key, but
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can't define a `matrix` at the top level, it has to be defined within a `job`'s `strategy`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Windows doesn't seem to honor the `default: run: shell:` setting, so you need to set the `shell:` on `run:` manually?

Don't hesitate to do a lot with `run:` blocks aka bash scripts — at least bash is mature and well documented.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
e.g.
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo "bar=whatever" >> $GITHUB_OUTPUT
|
|
|
|
|
|
# access with `steps.<name>.outputs.bar` in yaml strings
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
echo "foo=whatever" >> $GITHUB_ENV
|
|
|
|
|
|
# access with `env.foo` in yaml strings, or `$foo` in bash
|
|
|
|
