Get Current Time Github Action

This action sets the current ISO8601 time to the time output and also provides readableTime, formattedTime, and
many more digital outputs like year, day, second, etc. Useful for setting build times in subsequent steps,
renaming your artifact, or keeping the same recorded time for the entire workflow.

You can view some typical input/output in the action.test.js file.

Inputs

format

Time format to use - using MomentJS format syntax - optional

utcOffset

UTC offset to use - using MomentJS utcOffset syntax - optional

timezone

Timezone to use - check moment-timezone list -
optional, if set, utcOffset will be ignored, e.g. "America/Los_Angeles"

Outputs

time

The ISO time this action was run, not affected by the parameter utcOffset e.g. '2020-01-01T00:30:15.000Z'

ISOTime

readableTime

Human-friendly time - affected by the parameter utcOffset e.g. 'Wed Jan 01 2020 08:30:15 GMT+0800'

formattedTime
