Ubuntu CI action

Compile and run tests for Ignition libraries.

Usage

Add the following file to an Ignition repository: .github/workflows/ci-bionic.yml

name: Ubuntu Bionic CI

on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  bionic-ci:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Ubuntu Bionic CI
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Bionic CI
        id: ci
        uses: ignition-tooling/ubuntu-bionic-ci-action@v1
        with:
          codecov-token: ${{ secrets.CODECOV_TOKEN }}
          cmake-args: '-DBUILD_TESTING=1'

Dependencies

APT dependencies

Be sure to declare all apt-installable dependencies in the following files, one package per line.

• .github/ci/packages.apt : Installed for all versions.
• .github/ci/packages-<system version>.apt : where <system version> can be bionic, focal, etc. Use these if you need to install different dependencies according to the distribution.

The apt-dependencies input is deprecated.

Source dependencies

If you need to install dependencies from source, add a Vcstool yaml file to:

• .github/ci/dependencies.yaml : Installed for all versions
• .github/ci-<system version>/dependencies.yaml : where <system version> can be bionic, focal, etc. Use these if you need to install different dependencies according to the distribution.

Dependencies will be built using colcon. Be sure to add the apt dependencies of dependencies build from source to apt-dependencies.

Codecov

Create a secret on the repository with Codecov's token, called CODECOV_TOKEN.

Custom scripts

You can add optional scripts to be run at specific times of the build. They can be either in .github/ci or /github/ci-<system version> as needed.

• before_cmake.sh: Runs before the cmake call
• between_cmake_make.sh: Runs after the cmake and before make
• after_make.sh: Runs after make and before make test
• after_make_test.sh: Runs after make test

All scripts are sourced inside the build folder. Be sure to move back to the build folder before exiting the script.

Custom CMake Arguments

The cmake-args can be used to pass additional CMake arguments to the build. If building with codecov is enabled, it is not possible to override the build type, which will always be CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=coverage.
