GitHub action to configure the Forklift CLI in your GitHub Actions workflow.

Forklift is an open source tool for distributing updating apps on embedded Linux.

Here we see a simple template that checks out the pallet, installs the specified version of the Forklift CLI, and then verifies the pallet.

name: Run Forklift checks
on: [push]
jobs:
  forklift-checks:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: Check out repository code
      uses: actions/checkout@v4

    - name: Setup Forklift
      uses: PlanktoScope/setup-forklift@v1
      with:
        version: v0.5.0

    - name: Run Forklift checks
      run: |
        forklift dev plt cache-repo
        forklift dev plt check
        forklift dev plt plan
        forklift dev plt plan --parallel

When Forklift is installed on the GitHub runner, you can select a the specific version of Forklift you wish to run.

steps:
  - name: Setup Forklift
    uses: PlanktoScope/setup-forklift@v1
    with:
      version: 0.5.0

Or, Forklift can be locked to a SemVer range.

steps:
  - name: Setup Forklift
    uses: PlanktoScope/setup-forklift@v1
    with:
      version: 0.4.x

steps:
  - name: Setup Forklift
    uses: PlanktoScope/setup-forklift@v1
    with:
      version: 0.4

steps:
  - name: Setup Forklift
    uses: PlanktoScope/setup-forklift@v1
    with:
      version: <0.4

You can also choose to run your checks against multiple versions of Forklift.

strategy:
  matrix:
    forklift-version: [0.5.x, 0.4.x]
steps:
  - name: Setup Forklift
    uses: PlanktoScope/setup-forklift@v1
    with:
      version: ${{ matrix.forklift-version }}

The action supports the following inputs:

• version: Required. SemVer ranges are supported, so instead of a full version string, you can use 0.5. This enables you to automatically get the latest backward compatible changes in the v0.5 release.

This action does not set any direct outputs.
