sbt/sbt-github-actions

This system is an sbt plugin that automatically generates and maintains GitHub Actions workflow files, specifically ci.yml and clean.yml, based on Scala build configuration. It allows developers to define build matrices, JDK versions, and publishing targets within sbt, which the plugin then renders into valid YAML while keeping the workflows in sync with the project definition. The tool includes features for handling cross-platform builds, artifact management, and preserving manual changes to action references during regeneration.

This period focused on the initial development and release of the sbt-github-actions plugin, which automatically generates and maintains GitHub Actions workflow files from sbt build definitions. The work included implementing the core generative logic, defining configuration models for build matrices and publishing, and establishing comprehensive unit and scripted tests to ensure YAML output correctness. The project also underwent foundational maintenance, including upgrading build tools and migrating its organization namespace.

This period focused on significantly expanding scripted test coverage for various sbt-github-actions features, including native client behavior, Scala version suppression, and hash preservation. Concurrently, the project upgraded its build tool to sbt 1.12.2 and restructured the build layout to resolve cyclical dependencies.

This change introduces the sbt-github-actions plugin, which allows sbt projects to automatically generate and maintain GitHub Actions workflow files (ci.yml and clean.yml) directly from the build definition. The plugin provides settings to configure build matrices (Scala/Java versions, OSes), JDK selection, caching, and publishing targets, while ensuring the generated workflows stay in sync with the build configuration. It also includes documentation for usage, Windows-specific setup, and integration with sbt-ci-release.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

The \src/main\ area introduces the core of a new sbt plugin that generates GitHub Actions workflows (\ci.yml\ and \clean.yml\) from Scala configuration. \GenerativeKeys\ defines the settings API, allowing users to configure build matrices (Scala/Java/OS versions), publish triggers, timeouts, and environment variables. \GenerativePlugin\ implements the logic to render these settings into valid YAML, including support for job containers, services, and matrix inclusions/exclusions. The codebase also defines the underlying data models (\WorkflowJob\, \WorkflowStep\, \JavaSpec\, \RefPredicate\) and provides built-in actions for setting up Java (including GraalVM), sbt, and handling Windows pagefile fixes.

src/main · high confidence

A new symbolic link named 'main' has been created in the project/src directory, pointing to the ../../src/main directory. This change establishes a local reference to the main source code location, likely to simplify path resolution or align with a specific project structure requirement.

project/src · low confidence

Added scripted tests for CI and clean workflow regeneration; Added scripted tests for GitHub workflow OSes clean publish; Added scripted tests for sbt native thin client; Added scripted tests for suppressed Scala version workflow generation; Added test for cross-Scala version stability; Added test for non-existent target handling; Initial unit tests for the workflow generation plugin; Test coverage for preserving action hashes during workflow updates.

The project's build definition has been updated to use sbt version 1.12.2, as specified in the newly created \project/project/build.properties\ file. This change also includes structural adjustments to the build project layout, such as adding symlinks for \libraries.sbt\ and \src/main\ to reference files in the parent directory, which supports the untying of the \sbt-github-actions\ cyclical dependency mentioned in the commit history.

project/project · high confidence

The plugin's build has been upgraded to target sbt 2.0.0 for Scala 3 builds and sbt 1.5.5 for Scala 2.12, with the Scala compiler version bumped to 2.12.20. This change also updates the test dependency \specs2-core\ to version 4.20.8 and migrates the organization from \com.codecommit\ to \com.github.sbt\.
