Support snapcraft --destructive-mode #69

Open jonathanudd opened 9 months ago

jonathanudd commented 9 months ago

I'm currently using a self-hosted Github runner which runs inside a lxc container and I need to use the --destructive-mode argument for snapcraft. Is this something that could be supported by this action or I'm I better of installing snapcraft and running snapcraft with individual steps?

The value add of this action is configuring the VM so that Snapcraft can perform the build in an LXD container. If you were going to do a --destructive-mode build, you might be better off just calling Snapcraft directly.

With that said, LXD supports nested containers with appropriate configuration: https://ubuntu.com/blog/nested-containers-in-lxd -- that might let you use the action as is.
