# GitHub Actions Support Files
This is a collection of scripts and files to support GitHub Actions.
## Sending Notifications
These scripts send CI notifications to Matrix by creating messages from templates and env vars passed from GitHub Actions.
### Adding notifications to a GitHub Action
```
jobs:
build:
...
- name: Notifications - Node Install
run: npm install
working-directory: .github/workflows/support-files/notifications
- name: Notifications - Send
env:
NYM_NOTIFICATION_KIND: "my-component"
GIT_BRANCH: "${GITHUB_REF##*/}"
MATRIX_SERVER: "${{ secrets.MATRIX_SERVER }}"
MATRIX_ROOM: "${{ secrets.MATRIX_ROOM }}"
MATRIX_USER_ID: "${{ secrets.MATRIX_USER_ID }}"
MATRIX_TOKEN: "${{ secrets.MATRIX_TOKEN }}"
MATRIX_DEVICE_ID: "${{ secrets.MATRIX_DEVICE_ID }}"
IS_SUCCESS: "${{ job.status == 'success' }}"
uses: docker://keybaseio/client:stable-node
with:
args: .github/workflows/support-files/notifications/entry_point.sh
```
Notifications are run by adding the snippet above to a GitHub Action, and:
1. Installing node packages needed at run time
2. Set the env vars as required:
- `NYM_NOTIFICATION_KIND` matches the directory in `.github/workflows/support-files/${NYM_NOTIFICATION_KIND}` to provide the templates and extra scripting in `index.js`
- Matrix credentials, room and other env vars for the status of the build and repo
3. Replacing the default entry point shell script on the `keybaseio/client:stable-node` docker image to run `.github/workflows/support-files/notifications/entry_point.sh`
### Running locally
You will need:
- Node 16 LTS
- npm
Copy `.github/workflows/support-files/.env.example` to `.github/workflows/support-files/.env` and valid Matrix credentials.
Then run `npm install` to get dependencies.
Start development mode for the notification type you want either by passing the value as an env var called `NYM_NOTIFICATION_KIND` or set the `.env` file values correctly.
```bash
cd .github/workflows/support-files
npm install
cp .env.example .env
vi .env
npm run dev
```
