gitea-wait-for-checks

This action was inspired on lewagon/wait-on-check-action. And is writed in JavaScript to work on Gitea Actions.

Pause a workflow until a job in another workflow completes successfully.

This action uses the Gitea API (Get a commit's statuses) to poll for check results. On success, the action exit allowing the workflow resume. Otherwise, the action will exit with status code 1 and fail the whole workflow.

This is a workaround to Gitea Action's limitation of non-interdependent workflows 🎉

You can run your workflows in parallel and pause a job until a job in another workflow completes successfully.

Minimal example

.gitea/workflows/test.yaml

name: Test

on: [push]

jobs:
  test:
    name: Run tests
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
      steps:
        ...

.gitea/workflows/push.yaml

name: Publish

on: [push]

jobs:
  publish:
    name: Publish the package
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Wait for tests to succeed
        uses: Legytma/gitea-wait-for-checks@v1.1.1
      ...

Using Workflow Name

Each workflow name must be on one line.

.gitea/workflows/push.yaml

name: Publish

on: [push]

jobs:
  publish:
    name: Publish the package
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Wait for tests to succeed
        uses: Legytma/gitea-wait-for-checks@v1.1.1
        with:
          workflow-names: |-
            Test
      ...

Using Job Name

Each workflow name must be on one line.

.gitea/workflows/push.yaml

name: Publish

on: [push]

jobs:
  publish:
    name: Publish the package
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Wait for tests to succeed
        uses: Legytma/gitea-wait-for-checks@v1.1.1
        with:
          job-names: |-
            Run tests
      ...

Wait interval (optional, default: 10)

As it could be seen in many examples, there's a parameter wait-interval, and sets a time in seconds to be waited between requests to the GitHub API. The default time is 10 seconds.
