Research direction

Start by checking the Apptainer releases page and the existing setup-singularity action structure. Review the repository URL references in this repository and in eWaterCycle/singularity-versions, then determine the scope of creating setup-apptainer. Done means the action supports a released Apptainer version and the affected repository references identify the Apptainer project.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

See https://apptainer.org/news/community-announcement-20211130

The action should have support for Apptainer once a release for it has been made.

We should make a fork of this action to new action called setup-apptainer to make clear the action is for apptainer and not for the singularity products offered by the syslabs company.

The https://github.com/hpcng/singularity repo has been moved to https://github.com/apptainer/singularity, it has the old singularity versions and should be used to download+build from. The repo URL should be changed in this repo and in https://github.com/eWaterCycle/singularity-versions
