I've two branch in my repo i.e main
and kaju1
,
On main
branch (default), there are two workflow defined push.yml
and test.yml
.
On kaju1
branch, there are three workflow defined push.yml
, test.yml
, and pr.yml
.
I want to trigger pr.yml
i.e on kaju1
branch using github cli.
I tried using this code:
gh workflow run --repo username/repo-name --ref kaju1 pr.yml
But this is returning me the following error:
HTTP 404: Not Found (https://api.github.com/repos/username/repo-name/actions/workflows/pr.yml)
I did some research and found out that workflow only work with two conditions
main
(default) branch.So what I came up with, I'll keep it in other branch (that I want), then I'll add on:push
trigger on it for that it get triggered on every push to that branch then I'll use if/else
to distinguish between on:push
and on:workflow_dispach
on:
push:
branches:
- "other-branch"
workflow_dispatch:
inputs:
greeting:
description: 'Greetings'
required: true
default: 'Hello, World'
type: string
jobs:
job1:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
if: ${{ github.event_name == 'workflow_dispatch' }}
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
now on every push It'll at least get registered in github/actionss
, then
gh workflow run --repo username/repo-name --ref other-branch pr.yml
