This PR switches from evaluating values passed to `skip-token-revoke` as
true if they are truthy in JavaScript, to using `getBooleanInput`. This
change ensures that only proper YAML boolean values are recognized,
preventing unintended evaluations to true.
- The definition of `getBooleanInput` is here: definition of
`core#getBooealnInput` is here:
https://github.com/actions/toolkit/blob/930c89072712a3aac52d74b23338f00bb0cfcb24/packages/core/src/core.ts#L188-L208
The documentation states, `"If truthy, the token will not be revoked
when the current job is complete"`, so this change could be considered a
breaking change. This means that if there are users who rely on `truthy`
and expect values like whitespace or `"false"` to be evaluated as true
(though this is likely rare), it would be a breaking change.
- `Boolean(" ")` and `Boolean("false")` are both evaluated as true.
Alternatively, it can simply be considered a fix. How to handle this is
up to the maintainer.
Resolves https://github.com/actions/create-github-app-token/issues/216
BREAKING CHANGE: Removed deprecated inputs (`app_id`, `private_key`, `skip_token_revoke`) and made `app-id` and `private-key` required in the action configuration.
Fixes#72
If an Actions job is long enough, more than an hour can pass between
creating and revoking the App token in the post-job clean up step. Since
the token itself is used to authenticate with the revoke API, an expired
token will fail to be revoked.
This PR saves the token expiration in the actions state and uses that in
the post step to determine if the token can be revoked. I've also added
error handling to the revoke token API call, as it's unlikely that users
would want their job to fail if the token can't be revoked.
Fixes#57
This PR implements the 3-step plan proposed by @gr2m in
https://github.com/actions/create-github-app-token/issues/57#issuecomment-1751272252:
> 1. Support both input types
> 2. Log a deprecation warning for the old notation
> 3. Add a test for deprecations
Although this PR supports both input formats simultaneously, I opted
_not_ to document the old format in the updated README. That’s a
decision I’m happy to revisit, if y’all would prefer to have
documentation for both the old and new formats.
Fixes https://github.com/actions/create-github-app-token/issues/55
Currently, `actions/create-github-app-token` always/unconditionally
revokes the installation access token in a `post` step, at the
completion of the current job. This prevents tokens from being used in
other jobs.
This PR makes this behavior configurable:
- When the `skip-token-revoke` input is not specified (i.e. by default),
the token is revoked in a `post` step (i.e. the current behavior).
- When the `skip-token-revoke` input is set to a truthy value (e.g.
`"true"`[^1]), the token is not revoked in a `post` step.
This PR adds a test for the `skip-token-revoke: "true"` case.
This is configurable in other app token actions, e.g.
[tibdex/github-app-token](https://github.com/tibdex/github-app-token/blob/3eb77c7243b85c65e84acfa93fdbac02fb6bd532/README.md?plain=1#L46-L47)
and
[wow-actions/use-app-token](https://github.com/wow-actions/use-app-token/blob/cd772994fc762f99cf291f308797341327a49b0c/README.md?plain=1#L132).
[^1]: Note that `"false"` is also truthy: `Boolean("false")` is `true`.
If we think that’ll potentially confuse folks, I can require
`skip-token-revoke` to be set explicitly to `"true"`.
Follow up to #36. I just wanted to do some refactoring but turns out I
missed to pass the custom `request` instance to `createAppAuth`. It will
fallback to the default `request` which does not respect
`GITHUB_API_URL`
Check before trying to revoke the token, in case the token generation
failed. Otherwise the post step will throw an error.
