Unable to copy content of the artifact into target

[gurpreet-fe]

Description I would like to copy only the contents of the artifact into the target directory.

Expected Behaviour The contents of the artifact should be copied directly into the target directory, without copying the artifact directory itself.

- name: Copy to server
        uses: appleboy/scp-action@v0.1.7
        with:
          host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
          username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
          password: ${{ secrets.PASSWORD }}
          source: dist/*
          target: ~/public_html/remote/
          rm: true

Actual Behaviour The entire artifact directory is copied to the target directory.

Hello, I also have the same problem apparently is not taking the or in case such paths example dist/folder/folder2/ in the final destination is coming the same structure remote/dist/folder/folder2/ when I really want to show in remote/ what is inside the folder2 would be great if you can fix this bug. Thanks

To solve this I had to use appleboy/ssh-action.

• Put this step after the SCP step; This will move the files from dist to parent directory.

- name: Move files to root
        uses: appleboy/ssh-action@v1.0.3
        with:
          host: ${{ secrets.HOST }}
          username: ${{ secrets.USERNAME }}
          key: ${{ secrets.KEY }}
          port: ${{ secrets.PORT }}
          script: |
            cd *PATH TO PARENT DIRECTORY*
            mv dist/* .
            rm -rf dist/
