GitHub Action Failure

[latenitefilms]

I'm seeing this today, but no idea why:

Run retypeapp/action-build@latest
  with:
    license: ***
Run ${GITHUB_ACTION_PATH}/build.sh
  ${GITHUB_ACTION_PATH}/build.sh
  shell: /usr/bin/bash --noprofile --norc -e -o pipefail {0}
  env:
    INPUT_OVERRIDE_TITLE: 
    INPUT_OVERRIDE_BASE: 
    INPUT_LICENSE_KEY: ***
    INPUT_STRICT: 
    INPUT_CONFIG_PATH:

You must install or update .NET to run this application.

Thanks for the report. I'm looking into it right now and will try to reproduce.

I'm not entirely sure why the action is failing and I haven't been able to reproduce, but can you try adding the following config into your retype-action.yml file around line 142.

Existing

      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v4.1.7

      - name: Build and publish using Retype
        uses: retypeapp/action-build@latest
        with:
          license: ${{ secrets.RETYPE_SECRET }}

Revised

      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v4.1.7

      - uses: actions/setup-dotnet@v1
        with:
          dotnet-version: 7.0.x

      - name: Build and publish using Retype
        uses: retypeapp/action-build@latest
        with:
          license: ${{ secrets.RETYPE_SECRET }}

The configuration should not be required, but for some reason Retype is failing to run under the default runs-on: ubuntu-latest environment.

I am still investigating.

Thanks! Testing again now with that new actions/setup-dotnet@v1 addition...

That seems to have fixed the issue - THANK YOU!

I also encountered same problem, found this closed issue, deployed a fix according to a solution above, and it worked.

The solution probably needs to be added to Docs:

https://retype.com/guides/github-actions/#step-1-add-retype-actionyml-workflow

Perhaps the issue should be kept open (and pinned?) until there is a formal solution? I am guessing everybody building on GitHub will bump into it.

The docs have been updated to include the temp fix for this issue.

The issue is related to a change made by GitHub in the default hosting setup. A new release of Retype will be required and I'm working on it.
