Introduction

This repository contains the source code for the Speckle Automate GitHub Action. It is a GitHub Action that publishes a Speckle Automate Function definition to Speckle's automation platform.

Documentation

Note

This is a low level building block action. As a Speckle Automate Function developer you probably want to use our composite action

Inputs

speckle_automate_url

The URL of the Speckle Automate Server to publish the function to.

Defaults to https://automate.speckle.dev.

speckle_token

The Speckle Automate API token to use to publish the function. This token must have functions:write permissions.

This must be stored in GitHub as an encrypted secret. This token must be protected, as it allows anyone with access to it to publish functions as you to your Speckle Automate Server.

If you believe your token has been compromised, please revoke it immediately on your Speckle Automate Server. Please also audit your Speckle Automate Function changes to ensure that they were not made by an unauthorized party.

Please note that this is not a Speckle Account token, but a Speckle Automate API token. You can create one by logging into the Speckle Automate Server and going to the API Tokens page.

speckle_function_path

The path to the Speckle Automate Function to publish. This path is relative to the root of the repository. If you provide a path to a directory, your Speckle Automate Function must be in a file named specklefunction.yaml within that directory.

speckle_function_id

Optional. If you have already registered a Speckle Function, you can use the ID of that Speckle Function to ensure that any changes are associated with it. If you do not provide a Function Id, we will attempt to determine the Function ID based on the GitHub server, GitHub repository, Reference (branch), and the Speckle Function Path.

Providing a Speckle Function ID allows you to change one of those values, and update the original Function instead of creating a new one.

Your Speckle Token must have write permissions for the Speckle Function with this ID, otherwise the publish will fail.

Outputs

version_id

The unique ID of this version of the published function.

speckle_automate_host

The host component of the Speckle Automate Server URL.

Example usage

Speckle Automate GitHub Action will register a Speckle Function with Speckle Automate. This is a necessary, but not sufficient, step in publishing your Speckle Function. You must also build and push the Docker image that contains your Speckle Function.

Publish a function to automate.speckle.dev

uses: actions/[email protected]
with:
  # speckle_automate_url is optional and defaults to https://automate.speckle.dev
  # The speckle_token is a secret and must be stored in GitHub as an encrypted secret
  # https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/encrypted-secrets#using-encrypted-secrets-in-a-workflow
  speckle_token: ${{ secrets.SPECKLE_TOKEN }}
  # speckle_function_path is optional and defaults to ./specklefunction.yaml
  # speckle_function_id is optional and will be auto-generated if not provided

Publish a function to a self-hosted server

uses: actions/[email protected]
with:
  # please update to the url of your self-hosted server
  speckle_automate_url: https://example.org
  # https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/encrypted-secrets#using-encrypted-secrets-in-a-workflow
  speckle_token: ${{ secrets.SPECKLE_TOKEN }}
  # speckle_function_path is optional and defaults to ./specklefunction.yaml
  # speckle_function_id is optional and will be auto-generated if not provided

Example usage within an entire GitHub Actions Workflow

Publish a Speckle Function, and build the Docker Image using Docker

Docker is the original, and still one of the most popular, ways to build and publish Docker images. It does require that you provide a Dockerfile, which includes instructions to Docker for building your image.

Find out more about Docker and Dockerfiles by following Docker's Get Started Guide.

You can learn more about Docker's GitHub Action from their documentation in the GitHub Actions Marketplace.
