@ipa-mdl thanks for this this! It is working!

I am using the following configuration (example tested with ros-controls/ros2_control repository):

jobs:
  ci_binary:
    name: Galactic binary job
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    strategy:
      matrix:
        env:
          - {ROS_DISTRO: galactic, ROS_REPO: main}
          - {ROS_DISTRO: galactic, ROS_REPO: testing}
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v1
      - uses: ipa-mdl/industrial_ci@feature/act-support
        with:
          config: ${{toJSON(matrix.env)}}

If this works you might want to 'advertise' it a little @ipa-mdl.

Could save tenths of notifications each day by people pushing "fixup" and "test CI" commits (as they could now run it locally).

And GHA minutes, actually. They're not free (well, they are, but they are limited, depending on the plan you have).

@ipa-mdl do you want to write short “manual” or should I. I will be glad to review it at lest 🤖

It would be great if you could draft one.

@destogl: I had to rewrite your Markdown syntax to reStructeredText (I always forget about this as well, #750), please review the resulting layout.

@gavanderhoorn: Together with #590 and #749, because the workflow syntax might need to be changed

in what way? You mean configs need to be changed to no longer use the matrix: ${{ toJSON(matrix) }} syntax?

@gavanderhoorn: Away from ${{ matrix.env }}, either by passing all env entries explicitly (recommended for simple cases) or by using config: ${{toJSON(matrix)}}

@ipa-mdl I proposed two extra refinements in .rst file for proper rendering.

I had to relax this test a little bit. Not sure why, but in one of my tests it was /run/act instead of /var/run/act.
