Actions Toolkit for Java

The GitHub Actions ToolKit for Java provides a set of packages to make creating actions easier. This software is not endorsed, distributed, or maintained by GitHub. This library is an unofficial Java port of GitHub Actions Toolkit, which was originally developed exclusively for JavaScript.

Getting Started

Java actions are not officially supported by GitHub. As such, you will need to use a Docker action to run your action code.

The toolkit is available from Maven Central.

Creating an Action with the Toolkit

❓ Choosing an action type

Outlines the differences and why you would want to create a JavaScript or a container based action.

➰ Versioning

Actions are downloaded and run from the GitHub graph of repos. This contains guidance for versioning actions and safe releases.

⚠️ Problem Matchers

Problem Matchers are a way to scan the output of actions for a specified regex pattern and surface that information prominently in the UI.

⚠️ Proxy Server Support

Self-hosted runners can be configured to run behind proxy servers.
