Comma Separated List of Directories Isn't Working

      - name: Check For Files To Add
        id: check_additions
        uses: andstor/[email protected]
        with:
          files: "changed-sources/force-app, changed-sources/custom-metadata"

I keep getting log message These files don't exist: changed-sources/force-app and then when I check in another action step if: steps.check_additions.outputs.files_exists == 'true' value is apparently false even though the second directory changed-sources/custom-metadata does include files.

Workaround is running action twice and adding an or (||): steps.check_force_additions.outputs.files_exists == 'true' || steps.check_metadata_additions.outputs.files_exists == 'true'

Says here it should work: https://github.com/andstor/file-existence-action/blob/main/README.md?plain=1#L26

I am not sure if you have tested this yet but I recommend testing with a slightly different path structure.

I don't have multiple directories, but I do have files & directories mixed.

Does it work if you change your files line to this?

  files: "./changed-sources/force-app/, ./changed-sources/custom-metadata/"

I've had mixed results with different systems over the years with directories not registering on globs unless they have a trailing slash, and I prefer to prefix my relative paths with ./ to make sure it's clear to the running program that it needs to run relative to the running directory (which should be your workspace).

Hopefully this helps.

@Destreyf Thanks so much for this. Whenever I refactor I'll definitely give this a try. In the meantime, I just decided to run sgd twice for now. Once for each folder.
