Qt Github action Compilation Error: 'invalid choice: 'install-qt'' #208

Closed calcitem closed 9 months ago

calcitem commented 9 months ago

Dear Maintainer,

I am writing this issue to report a compilation error that has arisen using the Qt Github action. The error message I am encountering is as follows:

This issue wasn't present yesterday, but today, it has occurred repeatedly despite several attempts to resolve it.

Please let me know if you need any further information. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hi.

aqtinstall-1.2.5

It's a too old version of aqtinstall.

Your workflow:

      - name: Install Qt
        uses: jurplel/install-qt-action@v3
        with:
          version: '5.15.2'
          host: 'windows'
          target: 'desktop'
          arch: 'win64_msvc2019_64'
          install-deps: 'true'
          modules: 'qtcore qtwgui qtmultimedia'
          cached: 'false'
          setup-python: 'true'
          tools: 'tools_cmake,3.24.2,qt.tools.cmake.win64'
          set-env: 'false'
          tools-only: 'false'
          aqtversion: '==1.2.5'     <----------------------
          py7zrversion: '==0.16.1'
          extra: '--external 7z'

In most cases, there is no need to specify "aqtversion":

aqtversion

Version of aqtinstall to use, given in the format used by pip, for example: ==0.7.1, >=0.7.1, ==0.7.*. This is intended to be used to troubleshoot any bugs that might be caused or fixed by certain versions of aqtinstall.

Default: ==3.1.*

from: https://github.com/jurplel/install-qt-action/blob/8957947946ac9b7623a4ee3c75ab306ffd8ced1c/README.md#aqtversion

I think you should start with fewest inputs (in with:), then add what you need if error occurs.

The above post is correct. Closing this, feel free to reopen

Thank you for your assistance. After making the modifications, I encountered other errors and still couldn't compile successfully. However, it appears to be an issue with aqtinstall. I will consult with the author of aqtinstall for further guidance.

After conducting research, I've determined the reasons why the build was failing.

According to the documentation for install-qt-action, the cache attribute is no longer supported.

Also, qt.tools.qtcreator is not supported as per the tools section of the documentation.

I have made the necessary modifications and the build is successful now. Thank you all for your assistance.

Well,

"qtcore" is a built-in module and not required to be installed. I think this website may help you with finding modules: aqt list-qt server


According to the documentation for install-qt-action, the cache attribute is no longer supported.

Maybe you were saying cached? That's an input in older versions.


Also, qt.tools.qtcreator is not supported as per the tools section of the documentation.

I don't think so. Did you try this:

    - name: Install Qt
      uses: jurplel/install-qt-action@v3
      with:
        # ...
        tools: 'tools_qtcreator,qt.tools.qtcreator'


And,

I think you should start with fewest inputs (in with:), then add what you need if error occurs.
