I have a monorepo with two workflows:
.github/workflows/test.yml
name: test
on: [push, pull_request]
jobs:
test-packages:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v1
- name: test packages
run: |
yarn install
yarn test
...
.github/workflows/deploy.yml
name: deploy
on:
push:
tags:
- "*"
jobs:
deploy-packages:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
needs: test-packages
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v1
- name: deploy packages
run: |
yarn deploy
env:
NODE_AUTH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.NPM_TOKEN }}
...
This doesn't work, I can't reference a job in another workflow:
### ERRORED 19:13:07Z
- Your workflow file was invalid: The pipeline is not valid. The pipeline must contain at least one job with no dependencies.
Is there a way to create a dependency between workflows?
What I want is to run test.yml
then deploy.yml
on tags, and test.yml
only on push and pull requests. I don't want to duplicate jobs between workflows.
Now it's possible to have dependencies between workflows on Github Actions using workflow_run.
Using this config, the Release
workflow will work when the Run Tests
workflow is completed.
name: Release
on:
workflow_run:
workflows: ["Run Tests"]
branches: [main]
types:
- completed
jobs:
on-success:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
if: ${{ github.event.workflow_run.conclusion == 'success' }}
steps:
- run: echo 'The Run Tests workflow passed'
