syntaqxThe desktop app runs jobs sandboxed on Windows, macOS and Linux. Its Sandboxed choice, the default, is now g1t-runner's sandbox launcher on every computer, where on Windows and macOS it said a sandbox isn't available on this computer yet and ran nothing. A few seconds after g1t opens, the app runs `g1t-runner sandbox up --json` with its own copy of the runner and its state in the app's data folder, its URL, the computer's name and the `desktop` label (the launcher adds `-linux` and `-windows` and the OS labels itself), and the registration token from the site the first time only: the launcher keeps the registration after that, across updates too, and a workspace's sandbox is remembered (sandbox-registration.json), so choosing Sandboxed again after another way of running jobs needs no new token. Linux jobs run in a Linux VM of the runner's own (WSL 2 on Windows, vfkit on macOS, Sysbox or QEMU with KVM on Linux), and on Windows 11 Pro and up Windows jobs run each in a Windows Sandbox. While it runs, the app asks `sandbox status --json` every eight seconds, on a thread of its own, for the tray, settings and the site. Quitting or Stop runs `sandbox down`; choosing another way of running jobs waits for the job and runs `down --drain`; moving to another workspace removes the sandbox (`down --delete`) and makes it again. A new runner release is put in place while nothing runs, and the sandbox then takes the release's image with `sandbox update`; every six hours, `update` also runs on an idle sandbox, which does nothing when its image is the newest.

g1t/detect

Says what a g1t.page build of the checkout would find, without building or deploying anything: the same rules g1t/deploy builds with.

steps:
  - uses: actions/checkout@v5
  - id: detect
    uses: g1t/detect@v1
  - if: steps.detect.outputs.kind == 'none'
    run: echo "::error::Nothing here would be served."
  - if: steps.detect.outputs.framework == 'hugo'
    run: echo "A Hugo site, served from ${{ steps.detect.outputs.output-dir }}"
  - if: steps.detect.outputs.install != ''
    run: ${{ steps.detect.outputs.install }}

Inputs

InputDefault
root-dirThe checkoutWhere the project is in the checkout.
build-commandNoneA build command of your own, as g1t/deploy takes it.
output-dirNoneAn output folder of your own, as g1t/deploy takes it.
build-asautoWhat it is built as: auto, static, workers or docker, as g1t/deploy takes it.
dockerfileNoneA Dockerfile's path of your own, as g1t/deploy takes it.

Outputs

Output
kindworkers (a wrangler.jsonc, wrangler.json or wrangler.toml, or a framework's Cloudflare adapter), static (a site a build writes), html (the files as they are), container (a Dockerfile, a framework set up to need a server, or a server g1t writes a Dockerfile for) or none (nothing to serve).
frameworkThe framework it is built with, from the table below; for a container without one, dockerfile, or the server g1t writes a Dockerfile for (node, django, flask, fastapi, python, go, rails, rack, laravel, php). Empty when there is none.
dockerfileA container's own Dockerfile, relative to the project. Empty when g1t writes one, and for anything that is not a container.
portThe port a container listens on: its Dockerfile's EXPOSE, else 8080.
installHow dependencies are installed, from the lockfile: npm ci, pnpm install --frozen-lockfile, and so on, and bundle install for Jekyll. Empty when there is nothing to install.
buildWhat builds it: your command, the package's build script (npm run build), the framework's own command, or wrangler deploy --dry-run for Workers. Empty when nothing does.
output-dirThe folder served, relative to the project (. for the project itself): yours, a Workers project's assets directory, the folder the framework writes, or the first of dist, build, out, public, _site, .output/public that exists. Empty when a build has yet to write it, as for a Cloudflare adapter's Worker.

When kind is none, the step's log says what to change or add, such as a Dockerfile. Docker deployments has the order in which a project's kind is decided.

What deploys has each one's build command. Your build-command and output-dir win over what is detected.

It runs g1t-runner detect, found or downloaded as g1t/deploy finds it.
