Support for forked repositories is compliacted and does not work for me

[rugk]

I tried following https://github.com/marketplace/actions/publish-test-results#support-fork-repositories-and-dependabot-branches, but it did not work.

As soon as you try to download it with a specific run ID, it cannot find it: https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/actions/runs/8950164072/job/24585250115?pr=1303

What works:

• Using the official "download artifact" action works, but it seems it cannot find the "event file" suggested: https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/actions/runs/8950131683/job/24585173950?pr=1303
• Also before trying to integrate that "contributor support", it worked. (Without zthis event file etc.)
• I use a test matrix.

PR for reference: https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/pull/1303

In step 4, the instructions say "Add the following workflow that publishes test results". This refers to a separate workflow. So in stead of adding the publish action to the Tests workflow, please create a new workflow file with the given example YAML.

Ah thanks a lot! That said, I changed it, but GitHub does not trigger the "Test results" workflow at all – and yes, obviously I've changed the name.

Possibly because the old workflow was cancelled (although that's also not intended, but that's a different issue, but the GitHub doc does not actually mention any "cancelled" or so event to be added. And after all, for all test runs that have completed (even if not all of them have), results should be available and be uploaded. Again the doc says it does not depend on whether it was success or failure though…

The reason is that workflow_run events only execute workflows from master, so you first have to commit the PR (https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/pull/1303) to master for it to get triggered.

Looks like this works for you. Please reopen if you need anything else.
