v0.6.2. Fails: saying that format has not been set. While this isn't correct

[Henry-Brinkman]

Good afternoon!

Thank you for creating this action. We've using it quite a while, but we're seeing an error in the most recent version. It's saying that we're not setting format. Error: format is required, but not set (got: none)! But we've got it set to "npm" could you tell me if we're doing something wrong?

Thank you!

Hey @Henry-Brinkman - let me create an internal ticket to investigate this.

[Henry-Brinkman]

@BartoszBlizniak Thank you!

[BartoszBlizniak]

Hey @Henry-Brinkman - I just quickly tried to upload an NPM package using latest version and it pushed correctly. Are you happy to share the output from github and/or sample code of your .yaml file?

[Henry-Brinkman]

@BartoszBlizniak Thanks for trying. Yes, of course.

We're using this in a matrix, where we only publish affected libraries. - name: Push to cloudsmith uses: cloudsmith-io/action@master with: api-key: SECRET command: "push" format: "npm" owner: topicus-healthcare repo: viplive file: ${{ steps.create-package.outputs.package-name }} name: viplive-frontend-shared/${{ matrix.package }} republish: false And the output we're getting is: Error: format is required, but not set (got: none)!

@Henry-Brinkman - Thank you. I'm unfortunately unable to replicate the issue, would you have some time either today or tomorrow to run through this with me and perhaps we can try a quick debugging session? I'm based in the UK.

[Henry-Brinkman]

@BartoszBlizniak Sorry for the late response. Are you perhaps available on Thursday or Friday?

@BartoszBlizniak Sorry for the late response. Are you perhaps available on Thursday or Friday?

@Henry-Brinkman Let's do Thursday :) I'm on leave from Friday - any specific time that suits you?

[Henry-Brinkman]

@BartoszBlizniak Let's do it! I'm based in the Netherlands, are you available 2 PM CEST? :-) Thanks again for your help.

[BartoszBlizniak]

Awesome - @Henry-Brinkman scheduled!

I also hit this. Pinning v0.5.3 worked for me.

[BartoszBlizniak]

Hey @Henry-Brinkman / @thevideoobservatory - thank you for the input, I'm just back from my PTO and taking a look into this.

Taking a further look, the issue is related to the "description" parameter. The older versions of the GHA ignored the field and realistically didn't do anything for all formats apart from "Raw", to fix this issue on the latest version, please remove the "description" field and it should work as intended.

Apologies for the inconvenience that this has caused.

[Henry-Brinkman]

@BartoszBlizniak Thank you for your help! That seems to work!
