Proporsed solution: we can make extra file in Example folder of this repo: extra-config-files.txt
content of this file will be just list of files in this folder for other to download.
So regression-report.yml
workflow will download list-of-projects.yml
and config.xml
. Download extra-config-files.txt
, quickly split all lines in it and download all that referenced in it.
regression-report.yml
will cache all downloaded files, even extra-config-files.txt
.
regression-report.yml
will be smart during copy file from cache to execution folder to be aware of extra-config-files.txt
and copy few more files.
ATTENTION: To simplify first version, lets presume there is no folders of configs, all extra files should be in ExampleX folder.
https://github.com/checkstyle/test-configs/tree/main/RegexpHeader/Example2 requires extra config file
<property name="headerFile" value="config/java.header"/>
(folder is not required we can update example to be justjava.header
) https://github.com/checkstyle/test-configs/blob/670089984c086b21f75e11dfd493ac8205ad2404/RegexpHeader/Example2/config.xml#L20Even we add it https://github.com/checkstyle/test-configs/commit/24f8a55bc31db0d761d76facee4b52979f08f676 like this. it will not be downloaded, as we download only 2 files from test-configs repo. and inside regression-report.yml of checkstyle we copy them to required folder for report generation. https://github.com/checkstyle/checkstyle/blob/5eca53ce31f48b61fae0612a2092815009772b48/.github/workflows/regression-report.yml#L388-L394
We need to find a way to download all required files/folders and copy them to execution folder by regression-report.yml .
This feature will help a lot of modules, as several of them have ability to keep configs in separate files.
