Node 12 has an end of life on April 30, 2022. This PR updates the default runtime to [node16](https://github.blog/changelog/2021-12-10-github-actions-github-hosted-runners-now-run-node-js-16-by-default/), rather then node12. This is supported on all Actions Runners v2.285.0 or later.
setup-go
This action sets up a go environment for use in actions by:
- optionally downloading and caching a version of Go by version and adding to PATH
- registering problem matchers for error output
V2
The V2 offers:
- Adds GOBIN to the PATH
- Proxy Support
- stable input
- Bug Fixes (including issues around version matching and semver)
It will first check the local cache for a version match. If version is not found locally, It will pull it from main
branch of go-versions repository and on miss or failure, it will fall back to the previous behavior of download directly from go dist.
Matching by semver spec:
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-go@v2
with:
go-version: '^1.13.1' # The Go version to download (if necessary) and use.
- run: go version
Matching an unstable pre-release:
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-go@v2
with:
stable: 'false'
go-version: '1.14.0-rc1' # The Go version to download (if necessary) and use.
- run: go version
Usage
See action.yml
Basic:
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@master
- uses: actions/setup-go@v2
with:
go-version: '1.9.3' # The Go version to download (if necessary) and use.
- run: go run hello.go
Matrix Testing:
