This repo provides multiple GitHub Actions for the Power Platform; for more general info on GitHub Actions. Each action wraps the existing Power Platform CLI.

Detailed documentation on GitHub actions for Power Platform is available here.

Sample workflows and detailed instructions are available in our GitHub actions lab repo but if you are already familiar with GitHub actions and Power Platform solutions, simply add below to your existing workflows; also add the secret MYPASSWORD to your repository's 'Settings' | 'Secrets'

This project has adopted the Microsoft Open Source Code of Conduct. For more information see the Code of Conduct FAQ or contact [email protected] with any additional questions or comments.

Windows, macOS or Linux:

• Node.js LTS (currently v12)
• gulp CLI: npm install -g gulp-cli
• git
• VS Code or your different favorite editor
• recommended VSCode extensions:
  • EditorConfig for VS Code (editorconfig.editorconfig)
  • ESLint (dbaeumer.vscode-eslint)
  • GitLens (eamodio.gitlens)
  • markdownlint (davidanson.vscode-markdownlint)
  • Mocha sidebar (maty.vscode-mocha-sidebar)
• TEMPORARY:
  • Create a PAT for the Azure DevOps org msazure with scope: package(read) and add it as local environment variable.

  [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('AZ_DevOps_Read_PAT', '<yourPAT>', [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::User)

  • Create a PAT in GitHub to read packages, and enable SSO for the microsoft organization. Then add it to your ~/.npmrc file or use the npm login --scope=@microsoft --registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com command, as documented here. This will only be needed until the @microsoft/powerplatform-cli-wrapper repo is made public.

If developing on Linux or macOS, you will also need to install git-lfs. (It is prepackaged with the Git installer for Windows.) Follow the instructions here for your environment.

Clone, restore modules, build and run:

git clone https://github.com/microsoft/powerplatform-actions.git
cd powerplatform-actions
npm install
gulp

In a clean working directory, run npm run update-dist and commit and push only the updates in the ./dist folder.

If you have updated the Linux PAC package version (especially from a Windows host), double check that the pac executable has the execute flag set. Run

git ls-tree HEAD dist/pac_linux/tools/pac

and check that the leftmost value should be 100755. Example output:

100755 blob 00034fe2fe80faca43030481877760674409d739    dist/pac_linux/tools/pac

If the file mode does not match, run

git update-index --chmod=+x dist/pac_linux/tools/pac

prior to commiting the changes.
