Addition

GITHUB_TOKEN

The GITHUB_TOKEN that is provided as a part of GitHub Actions doesn't have authorization to create any successive events.
So it won't spawn actions which triggered by push.

This can be a problem if you have branch protection configured.

If you want to trigger actions, use a personal access token instead.

  1. Generate a personal access token with the public_repo or repo scope.
    (repo is required for private repositories).
  2. Save as ACCESS_TOKEN
  3. Add input to use ACCESS_TOKEN instead of GITHUB_TOKEN.
    e.g. .github/workflows/toc.yml
    on: push
    name: TOC Generator
    jobs:
      generateTOC:
        name: TOC Generator
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        steps:
          - uses: technote-space/toc-generator@v3
            with:
              GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.ACCESS_TOKEN }}

Create PullRequest

If CREATE_PR is set to true, a PullRequest is created.

on: pull_request
name: TOC Generator
jobs:
  generateTOC:
    name: TOC Generator
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: technote-space/toc-generator@v3
        with:
          CREATE_PR: true

create pr

If the closed activity type is set, this action closes the PR when it is no longer needed.

on:
  pull_request:
    types: [opened, synchronize, reopened, closed]
name: TOC Generator
jobs:
  generateTOC:
    name: TOC Generator
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: technote-space/toc-generator@v3

Context variables

name description
PR_NUMBER pull_request.number (e.g. 11)
PR_NUMBER_REF #${pull_request.number} (e.g. #11)
PR_ID pull_request.id (e.g. 21031067)
PR_HEAD_REF pull_request.head.ref (e.g. change)
PR_BASE_REF pull_request.base.ref (e.g. master)
PR_MERGE_REF pull_request.base.ref (e.g. change -> master)
PR_TITLE pull_request.title (e.g. update the README with new information.)

Configuration Examples

Example 1

Execute actions at push without limiting the branch and commit directly

on: push
name: TOC Generator
jobs:
  generateTOC:
    name: TOC Generator
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: technote-space/toc-generator@v3

Example 2

Create or update a Pull Request by executing actions on a Pull Request update only for branches starting with release/.

on:
  pull_request:
    types: [opened, synchronize, reopened, closed]
name: TOC Generator
jobs:
  generateTOC:
    name: TOC Generator
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: technote-space/toc-generator@v3
        with:
          CREATE_PR: true
          TARGET_BRANCH_PREFIX: release/

Example 3

Execute actions in the schedule for the default branch only and commit directly.
(Using the Token created for the launch of other workflows)

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: "0 23 * * *"
name: TOC Generator
jobs:
  generateTOC:
    name: TOC Generator
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: technote-space/toc-generator@v3
        with:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.ACCESS_TOKEN }}
          CHECK_ONLY_DEFAULT_BRANCH: true
