Description
Currently the only customization possible is via the global env property, but unfortunately this isn't available everywhere in the workflow and can't be used to customize a workflow template.
I foresee a few ways to reuse existing templates:
Plain merging of a local template (e.g. .github/workflows-ghat/ci.yml) with the remote template
# Fetch template
apply: fregante/ghat/templates/node
# Overwrite existing `on` property with
on:
- push
Importing single jobs
on:
- push
jobs:
test:
name: Let's test stuff
apply: fregante/ghat/templates/node#jobs.test # It would only merge the specific jobs.test section
build:
needs: test
steps:
- run: echo My other steps
An advanced way to customize the templates
For example it could apply some ENVs at merge time like GitHub does with the $default-branch variable:
- because
envdoesn't support arrays for example, and can't be used instrategy.matrix - some conditions could be pre-evaluated, so that whole steps/jobs could be dropped/added at merge time instead of just being silenced at run time.
