🎉 Major Release: Complete Rewrite as Pure Bash Composite Action

This is a major rewrite that simplifies the action significantly by removing all Node.js/TypeScript dependencies and implementing everything as a pure bash composite action.

⚠️ BREAKING CHANGES

  • Runtime Change: Action now uses composite runtime instead of node24
  • No Automatic Cleanup: The action no longer includes a post-run cleanup phase. k0s cluster will persist after the action completes
  • Removed Dependencies: All Node.js dependencies (@actions/core, @actions/exec) have been removed
  • No Build Required: The action no longer requires a build step

✨ What's New

Simplified Implementation

  • Complete rewrite from TypeScript to pure bash
  • All logic contained in a single action.yml file
  • Zero external dependencies - uses only bash, curl, and standard Linux commands

Better Developer Experience

  • No build step - action works immediately without compilation
  • More transparent - all code is visible and readable in action.yml
  • Faster execution - no Node.js runtime overhead
  • Simpler maintenance - single file, no toolchain complexity

Same Great Features

  • Automatic k0s installation with version selection
  • Single-node controller setup
  • Cluster readiness checks with configurable timeout
  • Kubeconfig export for kubectl integration

🔄 Migration Guide

If you're upgrading from v1.x, the usage remains the same:

- uses: fenio/setup-k0s@v2
  with:
    version: 'latest'
    wait-for-ready: 'true'
    timeout: '300'

Note: The cluster will no longer be automatically cleaned up after your workflow completes. If you need cleanup, you can add it manually in your workflow.

📦 What Was Removed

  • TypeScript source files and build configuration
  • dist/ directory with compiled JavaScript
  • package.json and all npm dependencies
  • Post-run cleanup hook
  • Node.js runtime requirement

🎯 Why This Change?

This rewrite makes the action:

  • Simpler to understand - pure bash is easier to read than TypeScript
  • Easier to maintain - no build tools, no dependencies to update
  • Faster to execute - no Node.js startup overhead
  • More reliable - fewer moving parts means fewer failure points
