GitHub Action: Workflow Run Queue

If the same workflow is already running from a previous commit, wait for it to finish

license release

Why?

Workflows run on every commit asynchronously, this is fine for most cases, however, you might want to wait for a previous commit workflow to finish before running another one, some example use-cases:

  • Deployment workflows
  • Terraform workflows
  • Database Migrations

Usage

.github/workflows/my-workflow.yml
jobs:
  xyz:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: khulnasoft/action-workflow-queue@v1

      # only runs additional steps if there is no other instance of `my-workflow.yml` currently running

Inputs

input required default description
github-token ❌ github.token The GitHub token used to call the GitHub API
timeout ❌ 600000 timeout before we stop trying (in milliseconds)
