MSY2/MINGW example workflow #95
Description
See msys2/setup-msys2 for an up-to-date and actively maintained solution.
Please, provide an example workflow to build MSYS2/MINGW packages with makepkg-mingw. I am currently using the following steps:
- name: Install MSYS2
run: choco install msys2
- uses: actions/checkout@v1
- name: Build and (hopefully) install package
run: C:\tools\msys64\usr\bin\bash -lc "./msys2-mingw/run.sh -b"
env:
HOME: ${{ runner.workspace }}/myrepo
MINGW_INSTALLS: ${{ matrix.task.installs }}
CI: true
- name: Test package
run: C:\tools\msys64\usr\bin\bash -lc "source /usr/bin/shell $MINGW_INSTALLS; ./msys2-mingw/run.sh -t"
env:
HOME: ${{ runner.workspace }}/myrepo
MINGW_INSTALLS: ${{ matrix.task.installs }}
CI: trueHowever, this is not ideal, because:
- Installing MSYS2 takes 4-5 minutes.
- Repeating the envvars in both tasks is redundant.
- I did not find how to use the following syntax:
run: |
commandA
commandB
