@actions/upload-artifact-with-wget

Upload actions artifacts from your workflows runs.

This is a tryout to make a lighter version of actions/upload-artifact made for simple workflows where most of the work could run on a alpine shell and only the artifact uploading required a full blown NodeJS container.

Usage

This actions won't copy all the features of the original NodeJS version but please report differences on the main ones.

Requirements

This action needs the following executables:

• zip (unless you zip the artifact yourself)
• wget (the full version : unfortunately, as of 2024-08-26, the busybox variant isn't capable of using the PUT method)

Inputs

  with:
    # Name of the artifact to upload.
    # Optional. Default is 'artifact'
    name:

    # A file, directory or wildcard pattern that describes what to upload
