Getting another one in!
I wonder if we should a an action to quickly add an action. I mean, without having to clone and add the code to the repo

This way listing actions would be quicker. What do you think?

[Piotr Krzemiński]

Thanks @LeoColman!
Do you mean we should have a tool to speed up adding typings to actions? If yes, I've been thinking about it for a while now, but due to limited resources I didn't start working on it. I also have other priorities regarding the DSL lib now, like fixing the issue with anchors and adding missing core freautrs...

Anyway, I imagine having a simple Web app that would first ask for action's coordinates, then would fetch its metadata (info about inputs and outputs) and then would allow setting a type for each. Finally, it would allow creating PRs both in the action's repo and maybe also in github-actions-kotlin-dsl repo (until the action owner accepts the PR).

If it isn't what you meant, could you please elaborate? 😄

the wrapper for this action are going to be released this Friday! 🎉

[Piotr Krzemiński]

@LeoColman do you have capacity to ask some more action owners to introduce the typings? You do a great job with it

[LeoColman]

I usually do it for actions that I use/will use/will need in the future. Usually driven by this motivation

[LeoColman]

Do you have a 'list' of actions that would be important to introduce typings?

[LeoColman]

I can poke some of them

[Piotr Krzemiński]

In theory, all actions currently added to our DSL lib, and in practice I'd eliminate GitHub's first-party actions, and I'd order the rest starting from most complex typings currently stored in the DSL lib. Do you want me to prepare e. g. a list of 5 actions following this reasoning?
