This action provides the following functionality for GitHub Actions users:
|
|
|
|
- Optionally downloading and caching distribution of the requested Node.js version, and adding it to the PATH
|
|
- Optionally caching npm/yarn/pnpm dependencies
|
|
- Registering problem matchers for error output
|
|
- Configuring authentication for GPR or npm
|
|
|
|
# Usage
|
|
|
|
See [action.yml](action.yml)
|
|
|
|
**Basic:**
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
steps:
|
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
|
|
- uses: actions/setup-node@v3
|
|
with:
|
|
node-version: '14'
|
|
- run: npm install
|
|
- run: npm test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The `node-version` input is optional. If not supplied, the node version from PATH will be used. However, it is recommended to always specify Node.js version and don't rely on the system one.
|
|
|
|
The action will first check the local cache for a semver match. If unable to find a specific version in the cache, the action will attempt to download a version of Node.js. It will pull LTS versions from [node-versions releases](https://github.com/actions/node-versions/releases) and on miss or failure will fall back to the previous behavior of downloading directly from [node dist](https://nodejs.org/dist/).
|
|
|
|
For information regarding locally cached versions of Node.js on GitHub hosted runners, check out [GitHub Actions Virtual Environments](https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments).
|
|
|
|
#### Supported version syntax
|
|
|
|
The `node-version` input supports the following syntax:
|
|
|
|
major versions: `12`, `14`, `16`
|
|
more specific versions: `10.15`, `14.2.0`, `16.3.0`
|
|
nvm lts syntax: `lts/erbium`, `lts/fermium`, `lts/*`
|
|
|
|
## Caching packages dependencies
|
|
|
|
The action has a built-in functionality for caching and restoring dependencies. It uses [actions/cache](https://github.com/actions/cache) under the hood for caching dependencies but requires less configuration settings. Supported package managers are `npm`, `yarn`, `pnpm` (v6.10+). The `cache` input is optional, and caching is turned off by default.
|
|
|
|
The action defaults to search for the dependency file (`package-lock.json` or `yarn.lock`) in the repository root, and uses its hash as a part of the cache key. Use `cache-dependency-path` for cases when multiple dependency files are used, or they are located in different subdirectories.
|
|
|
|
See the examples of using cache for `yarn` / `pnpm` and `cache-dependency-path` input in the [Advanced usage](docs/advanced-usage.md#caching-packages-dependencies) guide.
|
|
|
|
**Caching npm dependencies:**
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
steps:
|
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
|
|
- uses: actions/setup-node@v3
|
|
with:
|
|
node-version: '14'
|
|
cache: 'npm'
|
|
- run: npm install
|
|
- run: npm test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Caching npm dependencies in monorepos:**
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
steps:
|
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
|
|
- uses: actions/setup-node@v3
|
|
with:
|
|
node-version: '14'
|
|
cache: 'npm'
|
|
cache-dependency-path: subdir/package-lock.json
|
|
- run: npm install
|
|
- run: npm test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Matrix Testing:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
jobs:
|
|
build:
|
|
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
|
|
strategy:
|
|
matrix:
|
|
node: [ '12', '14', '16' ]
|
|
name: Node ${{ matrix.node }} sample
|
|
steps:
|
|
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
|
|
- name: Setup node
|
|
uses: actions/setup-node@v3
|
|
with:
|
|
node-version: ${{ matrix.node }}
|
|
- run: npm install
|
|
- run: npm test
|
|
```
