Release on another Repro

[ScarVite]

I wanted to ask if it is possible to have the workflow running on one private repro and have it released on a public one

[scope2229]

This you do with electron builder not the github action. Basically in your package.json or where you have electron-builder configured change the publish repo to the public one.

"build": { "publish": { "provider": "github", "repo": "publicrepo", "owner": "name", "releaseType": "release" } }

Did you add your gh_token to be able to push to your public repo ??

[samiulhsohan]

Yeah. I have only added GH_TOKEN in the Actions secrets to the repo from where the action is running. Do I need to add any other configs?

[scope2229]

Yeah. I have only added GH_TOKEN in the Actions secrets to the repo from where the action is running. Do I need to add any other configs?

Have you added it to the secrets section in your repo's settings? Also is the token valid? Is the repo your trying to push to public ?

[samiulhsohan]

It's working now. I confused myself with the token. I didn't realize I need to update/set the github_token in the action.yml file as the readme says "No need to define this secret in the repo settings".
