Unable to find default comment_template.md

[TaighHawkins]

The comment file isn't being found - this is because the source path for the search defaults to the application directory you're building, not the action runner directory:
Error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/runner/work/JsFunctionAppTest/JsFunctionAppTest/comment-template.md'
Providing the full comment template path to the action results in it working:

    - name: Report NYC coverage
      uses: sidx1024/report-nyc-coverage-github-action@v1.2.6
      with:

        comment_template_file: "/home/runner/work/_actions/sidx1024/report-nyc-coverage-github-action/v1.2.6/comment-template.md"

Getting the same error

[yassinebebba]

this is the template https://github.com/sidx1024/report-nyc-coverage-github-action/blob/main/comment-template.md

[domnantas]

Figured that out a bit later 😅 There are no instructions on README to copy the issue template to your project. Ideally, it would automatically default to https://github.com/sidx1024/report-nyc-coverage-github-action/blob/main/comment-template.md (or the .svelte one) if template does not exist in your project

[TaighHawkins]

Yeah, while I can understand that providing your own template is useful, there's no need to provide a template if you just want the default template (given that it exists within the action at hand). I'm happy to have this issue closed if either:

• The readme is updated to indicate that you need to copy the template/write your own template in your own repo
• The action is updated to use the template in the action root if none has been provided

But as it stands, there's no indication that you should use your own template, and it is entirely possible to use the one in the action.

[yassinebebba]

if you don't use your own template the action will fail, and even if you provide one you endup with an error that says missing fields

It was a bug. Please use one of the newer releases which has this issue fixed.
