"Publish Tester Build" workflow (Go, Task)

Publish tester builds of a Go project as GitHub Actions workflow artifacts for every commit to a pull request or the repository.

This makes it possible for any interested party to participate in beta testing without setting up a build system locally.

This is the version of the workflow for projects using the Task task runner tool.

Installation

Workflow

Install the publish-go-tester-task.yml GitHub Actions workflow to .github/workflows/

Assets

  • Taskfile.yml - variables providing project-specific data to the build system.
    • Install to: repository root (or merge into the existing Taskfile.yml).
  • DistTasks.yml - general purpose tasks for making production builds of Go projects using cgo and elastic docker containers.
    • Install to: repository root

Configuration

Workflow

PROJECT_NAME must be set to the project-specific name in publish-go-tester-task.yml.
