GitHub Commando

Rationale: Getting the logs of failed build in the GitHub Actions UI sucks... It's slow; you need to get the raw log; it's generally large, the failure may be in the middle of the log, so you scroll up and down to find it. It's inconvenient, time-consuming, open plenty of tabs in your browser.

This project provides a CLI to download the logs of the last build (run) of a given PR. It also analyzes the retrieved logs to extract the failed one and save them on disk. So you can analyze them on your machine.

Build

You need to build Quarkus first as it's a Quarkus application (command line mode). Then:

mvn clean package

To build the native executable:

mvn package -Pnative

Usage

github-commando-1.0-SNAPSHOT-runner log -r smallrye/smallrye-reactive-messaging -p 553 -w 'Pull Request Build'

You need to set the repository (owner/repo) like quarkusio/quarkus. The pull request is specified using -p. Finally, you need to specify the workflow name with -w

github-commando-1.0-SNAPSHOT-runner log -r quarkusio/quarkus --pr 9462 --workflow='Quarkus CI'

Full usage:

Retrieve the Github Actions logs - Retrieve the logs generated by the run of Github Actions on a specified pull
requests
  -o, --output=<out>    Set the output directory in which logs are written, if
                          not set, the current working directory is used.
  -p, --pr=<pr>         Set the pull request (#<id>)
  -r, --repo=<repo>     Set the GitHub repository (owner/name)
  -t, --token=<token>   The Github Token, using the `GITHUB_TOKEN` env variable
                          if not set
  -w, --workflow=<workflow>
                        Set the workflow name

IMPORTANT: To download the logs, the build must be completed. In case of success, no logs will be downloaded.
