Store Artifacts GitHub Action

Store job artifacts in GitHub.

This GitHub Action allows you to store artifacts generated during your workflow. It supports setting custom artifact names and retaining artifacts for a specified number of days.

For more information on what happens when use_aws_sam is true see ServerlessOpsIO/gha-package-aws-sam.

NOTE: This workflow is opinionated and meets the needs of its author. It is provided publicly as a reference for others to use and modify as needed.

The gha-store-artifacts action performs the following tasks:

1. Checks if the GitHub environment variable GITHUB_REPOSITORY_OWNER_PART_SLUG_URL is set and fails if not.
2. Optionally uploads a SAM artifact if specified.
3. Sets the artifact name based on the provided override or generates a default name.
4. Uploads the job working directory as an artifact to GHA

Usage

See below for inputs, outputs, and examples.

Inputs

• artifact_name_override (optional): Override the name of the artifact.
• artifact_retention_days (optional): Number of days to retain artifacts..
• use_aws_sam (optional): Boolean to determine if SAM artifact should be uploaded.
• aws_account_region (optional): AWS region to use for SAM packaging.
• sam_s3_bucket (optional): S3 bucket for SAM deployment.
• sam_s3_prefix (optional): S3 prefix for SAM deployment.

Outputs

• artifact-name: The name of the artifact stored.
• sam-artifact-bucket: The S3 bucket where the SAM artifact was uploaded.
• sam-artifact-bucket-prefix: The S3 prefix where the SAM artifact was uploaded.

Examples

To use this action see the examples below:

w/o AWS SAM

name: CI

on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - name: Setup job workspace
        id: setup-workspace
        uses: ServerlessOpsIO/gha-setup-workspace@v1

      # Do job work here

      - name: Store Artifacts
        uses: ServerlessOpsIO/gha-store-artifacts@v1

w/ AWS SAM

name: CI
on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    # Required for AWS credentials
    permissions:
      id-token: write
      contents: read

    steps:
      - name: Setup job workspace
        id: setup-workspace
        uses: ServerlessOpsIO/gha-setup-workspace@v1


      # Do job work here


      # NOTE: ERunning `sam build` prior ensures Lambda function dependencies will be properly
      # bundled in the artifact.
      - name: SAM build
        id: sam-build
        shell: bash
        run: sam build

      - name: Assume AWS Credentials
        uses: ServerlessOpsIO/gha-assume-aws-credentials@v1
        with:
          build_aws_account_id: ${{ secrets.BUILD_AWS_ACCOUNT_ID }}
          deploy_aws_account_id: ${{ secrets.DEPLOY_AWS_ACCOUNT_ID }}
          aws_account_region: 'us-east-1'
          gha_build_role_name: ${{ secrets.GHA_BUILD_ROLE_NAME }}
          gha_deploy_role_name: ${{ secrets.GHA_DEPLOY_ROLE_NAME }}

      - name: Store Artifacts
        uses: ServerlessOpsIO/gha-store-artifacts@v1
        with:
          use_aws_sam: true

Artifact naming

Both ServerlessOpsIO/gha-setup-workspace and ServerlessOpsIO/gha-store-artifacts use the same utility action to set an artifact name if artifact_name_override is not set. If your workflow sets artifact_name_override for ServerlessOpsIO/gha-setup-workspace be sure to use that actions artifact_name output to set artifact_name_override for ServerlessOpsIO/gha-store-artifacts.

See the example below:

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Setup job workspace
        uses: ServerlessOpsIO/gha-setup-workspace@v1
      - name: Store Artifacts
        uses: ServerlessOpsIO/gha-store-artifacts@v1
        with:
          artifact_name_override: 'MyArtifactName'
    outputs:
      artifact-name: ${{ steps.setup-workspace.outputs.artifact-name }}

  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    needs:
      - build
    steps:
      - name: Setup job workspace
        uses: ServerlessOpsIO/gha-setup-workspace@v1
        with:
          checkout_artifact: true
          artifact_name_override: ${{ needs.build.outputs.artifact-name }}

S3 Bucket

The default value for sam_s3_bucket comes from ServerlessOpsIO/aws-gha-integration. Both the sam_s3_bucket and sam_s3_prefix should not need to be configured but are avavailbel for unique circumstances.
