It's time consuming to add features & stay in sync with changes in dotnet world so no new issues / PRs will be accepted
You can replicate the functionality of this action & much more by using the offical tools like dotnet CLI or GitHub CLI etc.,
GitHub action to build, pack & publish nuget packages automatically when a project version is updated
Create new .github/workflows/publish.yml
file:
name: publish to nuget
on:
push:
branches:
- main # Default release branch, may also be named 'master' or 'develop'
jobs:
publish:
name: build, pack & publish
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
# - name: Setup dotnet
# uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v1
# with:
# dotnet-version: 3.1.200
# Publish
- name: publish on version change
id: publish_nuget
uses: brandedoutcast/publish-nuget@v2
with:
# Filepath of the project to be packaged, relative to root of repository
PROJECT_FILE_PATH: Core/Core.csproj
# Configuration to build and package
# BUILD_CONFIGURATION: Release
# Platform target to compile (default is empty/AnyCPU)
# BUILD_PLATFORM: x64
# NuGet package id, used for version detection & defaults to project name
# PACKAGE_NAME: Core
# Filepath with version info, relative to root of repository & defaults to PROJECT_FILE_PATH
# VERSION_FILE_PATH: Directory.Build.props
# Regex pattern to extract version info in a capturing group
# VERSION_REGEX: ^\s*<Version>(.*)<\/Version>\s*$
# Useful with external providers like Nerdbank.GitVersioning, ignores VERSION_FILE_PATH & VERSION_REGEX
# VERSION_STATIC: 1.0.0
# Flag to toggle git tagging, enabled by default
# TAG_COMMIT: true
# Format of the git tag, [*] gets replaced with actual version
# TAG_FORMAT: v*
# API key to authenticate with NuGet server
# NUGET_KEY: ${{secrets.NUGET_API_KEY}}
# NuGet server uri hosting the packages, defaults to https://api.nuget.org
# NUGET_SOURCE: https://api.nuget.org
# Flag to toggle pushing symbols along with nuget package to the server, disabled by default
# INCLUDE_SYMBOLS: false
