Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
For those with ebuild overlays on GitHub interested in QA, I've hacked |
| 4 |
up an initial GitHub Action for pkgcheck using javascript action support |
| 5 |
[1] that simplifies running pkgcheck and allows for custom arguments. |
| 6 |
For those familiar with github workflows, the examples on the |
| 7 |
pkgcheck-action homepage should be self-explanatory. |

|

If you already happen to have pieced together your own pkgcheck |
| 10 |
workflow, I'd suggest migrating to the official action since it enables |
| 11 |
many features such as cache support, colored output, internalized gentoo |
| 12 |
repo syncing, repo metadata generation, and more that your workflow |
| 13 |
probably doesn't handle. In addition, other interesting features such as |
| 14 |
incremental output (showing what changed between scans) and possibly |
| 15 |
even incremental scanning may be supported if I'm inspired. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Note that the project is still quite fresh so I'm looking for people |
| 18 |
willing to report bugs and/or make feature requests. After some time |
| 19 |
I'll probably publish a release to the GitHub marketplace so it'll be |
| 20 |
easier to find for newcomers. |

Thanks, |
