This action checks whether softwareVersion and releaseDate in your publiccode.yml file is aligned with the latest tag. It's also ready to work in conjunction with peter-evans/create-pull-request action to update fields in publiccode.yml using a pull request. You can also specify a remote repository, see Deal with a remote repository

Click Use this template button to create your action based on this template.

The following inputs briefly explained here are fully declared and documented in the action.yaml:

• remoterepo [Optional] - Git url of the remote repository you want to check (default '')

• publiccode [Optional] - publiccode.yml path (default publiccode.yml)

• remove [Optional] - Regular expression applied to the latest tag to remove characters (default '')

• filter [Optional] - Regular expression applied to filter tags (default '')

• gitname [Optional] - Git name configuration for bump commit if you use a Pull Request action (default Publiccode bot)

• gitmail [Optional] - Git mail configuration for bump commit if you use a Pull Request action (default '')

Include this action in your repo by creating .github/workflows/publiccode-versioning.yml and edit where needed:

on: [push]

jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - name: Parse publiccode.yml
        uses: italia/[email protected]

You can easily create a pull request to update fields in your publiccode.yml file.

on: [push]

jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - name: Parse publiccode.yml
        uses: italia/publiccode-softwareversion-check-action
        id: pva
      - name: Create Pull Request
        uses: peter-evans/create-pull-request@v3
        if: failure()
        with:
          title: "feat: update softwareVersion ${{ steps.pva.outputs.version }} in publiccode.yml"
          branch: feature/publiccode-${{ steps.pva.outputs.version }}

See "Create Pull Request - GitHub action" documentation for more info

If you need to keep your publiccode.yml in another repository you can still fetch that repo directly from the action using remoterepo parameter and use a cron to check whether the version is changed periodically.

on:
  schedule:
    - cron:  '30 17 * * *'

  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - name: publiccode-softwareversion-check-action
        uses: italia/publiccode-softwareversion-check-action@master
        id: pva
        with:
          remoterepo: "https://github.com/immuni-app/immuni-app-android.git"

Tags may contain extra characters you don't want to put in your SoftwareVersion. In that case you can remove unwanted characters using a regular expression in the remove parameter.

  remove: "Immuni-|build[0-9]+"

Contributing is always appreciated. Feel free to open issues, fork or submit a Pull Request. If you want to know more about how to add new fields, check out CONTRIBUTING.md. In order to support other country-specific extensions in addition to Italy some refactoring might be needed.
