Closed MelSumner closed 8 months ago
Since I was able to come up with a solution that worked, I'll open a PR that adds some documentation about setting things up to run in a GitHub action.
I wasn't able to resolve my original question (how to get the name of the file returned from the produced middleware report) but I was able to use a wildcard in my artifact path and that worked.
I may be missing some context, but can't we just use a wildcard or glob pattern to specify the report? For example, ember-a11y-report/*.json
or **/ember-a11y-report/*.json
(depending on the project structure). This is how we handle artifact archiving in our internal apps.
Hey @MelSumner, as @drewlee mentioned, using a glob is probably the best way to do this. If you need to persist this file via GitHub Actions, you can likely do a few things:
actions/upload-artifact
action to store the file across jobs, and access it from another job via actions/download-artifact
. It'd also be possible to update the @scalvert/ember-setup-middleware-reporter
to additionally take a config option that would allow you to specify your own file pattern. I'm not sure that's needed here, but is an option.
@drewlee @scalvert I must have been doing something silly because the wildcard glob wasn't working for me. Thank you both for responding!
@MelSumner looks like we can probably close this issue at this point?
Looking at this part of the README: https://github.com/ember-a11y/ember-a11y-testing/tree/2b479c9e0fbea702cfde776372d194458ce07357#test-middleware
I'm able to successfully this up to run, and it returns a report with what looks like a (dasherized?) timestamp for the
.json
file name.To take this to a more automated cron job fashion, I'd like to run this in a GITHUB action. I can mostly get it to work, but I'm just not quite sure how to get the name of the report produced by the middleware so I can save it as an artifact or even commit it to the repository in the
ember-a11y-report
folder in the same way as if I'd run the command in my CLI.Example: After setting up the middleware, I ran the a11y audit on my codebase, and a file was added to the
ember-a11y-report
folder:2023-06-28T16-40-05-049Z.json
.How would I get the timestamped file name returned in a GitHub action so it could be archived as an artifact? Any hints? I checked through the source code and the tests but I couldn't quite figure it out.
Also, I'm writing this as an issue because I'd like to add this information to the docs.
