name: ${{ steps.build.outputs.filename }}
path: ${{ steps.build.outputs.filename }}This Action wraps the dpkg-buildpackage
command. To use it, you must have a debian directory at the top of
your repository, with all the files that dpkg-buildpackage expects.
This Action does the following things inside a Docker container:
- Call
mk-build-depsto ensure that the build dependencies defined thedebian/controlfile are installed in the Docker image. - Call
dpkg-buildpackagewith whatever arguments are passed to theargsinput in the step definition. - Move the resulting
*.debfiles into the top level of your repository, so that other GitHub Actions steps can process them futher. - Set the
filenameandfilename-dbgsymoutputs, so that other GitHub Actions steps can easily reference the resulting files.
If you need to build Debian packages on a different release, check out the following:
If you want to upload the package to Amazon S3
instead of using
actions/upload-artifact,
