      uses: actions/checkout@v4
    - name: Use Node.js 16.x
      uses: actions/setup-node@v4.0.2
      with:
        node-version: 16.x
    - name: Run npm install
      run: npm install
    - name: Run audit
      uses: tangro/actions-audit@v2.0.21
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
        GITHUB_CONTEXT: ${{ toJson(github) }}

Attention Do not forget to pass GITHUB_TOKEN and the GITHUB_CONTEXT

Steps this example job will perform:

1. Check out the latest code
2. Use node
3. Run npm install
4. (this action) Run the audit action

Usage

This action will run npm audit --json and check the results. The workflow run will fail when there are high or critical vulnerabilities. Others will be allowed.

The action will set a status to the commit to pending under the context Tangro CI/audit (or if actionName ist set under Tangro CI/actionName). When it finishes successfully it will change the status to success and the audit result will be displayed in the description. If it fails the action will set the status to failed.

It is also possible that the action posts a comment with the result to the commit. You have to set post-comment to true.

- name: Run audit
  uses: tangro/actions-audit@v2.0.21
  with:
    post-comment: true
  env:
    GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
    GITHUB_CONTEXT: ${{ toJson(github) }}

Using with a static file server

You can also publish the test results to a static file server. The action will write the results into ${actionName}/index.html. The ${actionName} can be set via a parameter. Otherwise "audit" will be used as the folder.

You can publish the results with our custom deploy actions

      uses: actions/checkout@v4
    - name: Use Node.js 16.x

        zip --quiet --recurse-paths ../audit.zip *
    - name: Deploy audit result
      if: always()
      uses: tangro/actions-deploy@v1.2.18
      with:
        context: auto
        zip-file: audit.zip
        deploy-url: ${{secrets.DEPLOY_URL}}
        project: audit
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
        GITHUB_CONTEXT: ${{ toJson(github) }}
        DEPLOY_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.DEPLOY_PASSWORD }}
