Builds and publishes tagged releases of a Factorio mod to the Factorio mod portal.
Currently, this action expects a flat repo structure with exactly one complete mod in the git repo (with a valid info.json in the repo's root).
It also expects tag names to match the Factorio mod version numbering scheme - three numbers separated by periods, eg. 1.15.0.
Non-tag pushes will be ignored, but when a tag is pushed that is valid and matches the version number in info.json, the mod will be zipped up and published to the mod portal using the required secrets FACTORIO_USER and FACTORIO_PASSWORD to authenticate.
An example workflow to publish tagged releases:
on: push
name: Publish
jobs:
publish:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@master
- name: Publish Mod
uses: shanemadden/factorio-mod-portal-publish@stable
env:
FACTORIO_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.FACTORIO_PASSWORD }}
FACTORIO_USER: ${{ secrets.FACTORIO_USER }}
FACTORIO_USER and FACTORIO_PASSWORD secrets should be valid credentials to the Factorio mod portal with permissions to edit the mod defined in info.json.
A valid .gitattributes file is required to filter .git*/* directories. This file must be checked in and tagged to filter during a git-archive operation.
.gitattributes export-ignore
.gitignore export-ignore
.github export-ignore
Be aware that the zip will be published and immediately available for download for users - make sure you're ready to publish the changes and have tested the commit before pushing the tag!
