CI for wp2txt Ruby project
After the success yesterday adding CI to a Ruby Gem I thought I can give another try to more Ruby Gems so I looked at the Ruby Digger. As I can see there is even less action there than on CPAN Digger for Perl.
Error reports
First I looked at a project called nezekan. I tried to run the tests locally, but failed. I am not sure if I was even trying to run them as the authors intended, but this error seem to be genuine. It is a case-sensitivity issue. After I fixed that locally I bumped into and reported another issue.
Only now, that I am writing this I realized that the project had a Travis-CI configuration file. Although Travis-CI does not provide the free service any more I could have looked at the configuration file and base my commands on that. I can get back to that later.
wp2txt
After a while I found the wp2txt project. Adding GitHub Actions to this was quite simple though it was different from the previous one. Here is the pull-request and below you'll find a copy of the configuration file as I sent it.
GitHub Actions
examples/wp2txt/ci.yml
name: CI on: push: pull_request: workflow_dispatch: schedule: - cron: '42 5 * * *' jobs: test: strategy: fail-fast: false matrix: ruby: [ '3.1' ] runs-on: ubuntu-latest name: Ruby ${{matrix.ruby}} container: ruby:${{matrix.ruby}} steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v3 - name: Show Ruby Version run: ruby -v - name: Install dependencies run: bundle install - name: Install rspec run: gem install rspec - name: Run tests run: rspec
Conclusion
Slowly, but I learn how to run the tests in the various Ruby projects as well. Unfortunately there are not very many new uploads to RubyGems and this Ruby Digger is growing slowly.
