GitHub Action to Upload Assets to Azure Blob Storage

This action is designed to use the Azure CLI to upload a directory of your choice to your Azure Blob Storage account.

Usage

Example

Place in a .yml file such as this one in your .github/workflows folder. Refer to the documentation on workflow YAML syntax here.

name: Upload To Azure Blob Storage
on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
jobs:
  upload:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: bacongobbler/azure-blob-storage-upload@main
        with:
          source_dir: _dist
          container_name: www
          connection_string: ${{ secrets.ConnectionString }}
          extra_args: '--pattern *.tar.gz'
          # WARNING: this will overwrite existing blobs in your blob storage
          overwrite: 'true'

If you want to synchronize local and remote state (for example, if you are publishing a static website), enable the sync flag.

Here's an example that will generate and upload a Hugo static site to Azure Blob Storage on every push to master:

        with:
          source_dir: 'public'
          container_name: '$web'
