Difference

  • ✅ No gist-id required
  • ✅ No github-token required
  • ✅ No entire upload to gh-pages
  • ✅ Just patch and push to gh-pages

Usage

  1. Make sure you have gh-pages branch and have GitHub Pages on:

    # if you don't have gh-pages yet, create an empty one
git stash save my_wip_state  # if not clean (1)
git switch --orphan gh-pages
git commit --allow-empty -m "Initial commit"
git push -u origin gh-pages

git checkout my_original_branch
git stash apply stash^{/my_wip_state}  # if not clean (2)

    See Step.6 in 🚀 Blog Setup via Github Fork

    6. (Important) Select both gh-pages and / (root) in Project Settings -> Pages

  2. Give workflow permission:

    On your repository Settings -> Action -> General -> Workflow permissions choose Read and Write permissions

  3. Whatever the coverage tool is, don't forget to have reporter=json-summary enabled:

    // package.json
-  "test:cov": "c8 xv",
+  "test:cov": "c8 -r text -r json-summary xv",
// or
-  "coverage": "nyc mocha",
+  "coverage": "nyc -r text -r json-summary mocha",

  4. Add the action to your current workflow

    # .github/workflows/test.yml
name: Test
on: [push, pull_request, workflow_dispatch]
jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      # Your original steps
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v3
      - name: Install
        run: npm install
      - name: Test and Coverage
        run: npm run test:cov  # or npm run coverage

      # Add this
      - name: Update Coverage Badge
        # GitHub actions: default branch variable
        # https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64781462/github-actions-default-branch-variable
        if: github.ref == format('refs/heads/{0}', github.event.repository.default_branch)
        uses: we-cli/coverage-badge-action@main

  5. Add the badge to your README.md

    <!-- README.md -->
+ [![cov](https://<you>.github.io/<repo>/badges/coverage.svg)](https://github.com/<you>/<repo>/actions)

    Replace the <you> and <repo> above, like:

    <!-- README.md -->
+ [![cov](https://we-cli.github.io/jayin/badges/coverage.svg)](https://github.com/we-cli/jayin/actions)

    and you get:
