Parameters

  • version - Specified version of the SDK. Optional. Default value is latest.
  • cache - Cache installer. Default is true.
  • custom-url - Custom URL to the SDK installer. Useful for beta versions. If set, version will be ignored.
  • gcc - true to install gcc-arm-none-eabi toolchain, false to don't. Default is true. (Linux & Windows only. On macOS, the sdk installer installs the toolchain itself.)
  • root-win-path - true to convert path to windows path format. Only for win- workers. It changes outputs.root, but not $PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH.

Supported platforms

  • Linux
  • Windows

Usage Example

- name: Install Playdate SDK
  id: playdate
  uses: pd-rs/get-playdate-sdk@0.4
  with:
    version: 2.5.0 # possible values: version `x.x.x` or `latest` by default

- name: usage
  run: |
    echo "SDK path env: $PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH"
    echo "SDK root out: ${{ steps.playdate.outputs.root }}"
    echo "SDK version: ${{ steps.playdate.outputs.version }}"
    pdc --version # because SDK/bin already in PATH

Windows and Powershell

Note that $PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH and outputs.root are set in POSIX format. If you want to use it in powershell you should fix it using one of following solutions:

  1. enable root-win-path (see inputs)
  2. fix the env for powershell from bash with:
    - if: runner.os == 'Windows'
     shell: bash
     run: |
       PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH=$(cygpath -w "$PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH")
       echo "PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH=$PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH" >> $GITHUB_ENV
    So you'll get fixed $PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH for powershell and normal outputs.root in POSIX
  3. enable root-win-path (see inputs) and fix the env for powershell from bash with:
    - name: Install Playdate SDK
      id: playdate
      uses: pd-rs/get-playdate-sdk@0.4
      with:
        root-win-path: true
    
    - run: echo "PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH=$PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH" >> $GITHUB_ENV
      env: PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH: ${{ steps.playdate.outputs.root }}
      if: runner.os == 'Windows'
      shell: bash
    
    So you'll get both paths fixed for powershell - $PLAYDATE_SDK_PATH and outputs.root.
