An action that wraps brew bump-formula-pr
to ease the process of updating the formula on new project releases.
Works on Ubuntu and macOS runners.
One should use the Personal Access Token for token
input to this Action, not the default GITHUB_TOKEN
, because brew bump-formula-pr
creates a fork of the formula's tap repository (if needed) and then creates a pull request.
There are two ways to use this Action.
Use if you want to simply bump the formula, when a new release happens.
Listen for new tags in workflow:
on:
# trigger when release got created (preferred)
release:
types: [released]
# trigger on tag push
# push:
# tags:
# - "*"
The Action will extract all needed informations by itself, you just need to specify the following step in your workflow:
- name: Update Homebrew formula
uses: dawidd6/action-homebrew-bump-formula@v4
with:
# Required, custom GitHub access token with the 'public_repo' and 'workflow' scopes
token: ${{secrets.TOKEN}}
# Optional, will commit with this user name
user_name: name
# Optional, will commit with this user email
user_email: email@example.com
# Optional, will create tap repo fork in organization
org: ORG
# Optional, use the origin repository instead of forking
no_fork: false
# Optional, defaults to homebrew/core
tap: USER/REPO
# Formula name, required
formula: FORMULA
# Optional, will be determined automatically
tag: ${{github.ref}}
# Optional, will be determined automatically
revision: ${{github.sha}}
# Optional, if don't want to check for already open PRs
force: false # true
If livecheck
input is set to true
, the Action will run brew livecheck
to check if any provided formulae are outdated or if tap contains any outdated formulae and then will run brew bump-formula-pr
on each of those formulae with proper arguments to bump them.
Might be a good idea to run this on schedule in your tap repo, so one gets automated PRs updating outdated formulae.
If there are no outdated formulae, the Action will just exit.
- name: Update Homebrew formula

If only tap
input is provided, all formulae in given tap will be checked and bumped if needed.
