artifact of other workflow and/or repository #691

Open JoseQuintas opened 3 years ago

JoseQuintas commented 3 years ago

I create a workflow:

But I would like separated process. I do not need allways to create the mingw pack, nor the build compiler. I would like to use the artifact created a month ago, without recreate it on each execution. Is this possible?

Note: to build harbour need the mingw - I create a artifact with them to build libraries need harbour + mingw - I create a artifact with them there are 4 libraries. I do not found how to create a artifact or anything else to be used during all month, as example, but with the possibility to use this artifact allways that need it.

Each one is a separated project, but I download all to workflow. Could be a workflow using the artifact from another project workflow.

For sure, what I am calling as artifact is a release or package. I create a unique github repository with workflow for all projects, not sure if this can cause any kind of limitation, once all actions and artifacts of all projects are on a unique project. But on this way, I have all artifacts of all projects available to work with them.
