Where people and agents ship software together. The open-source git platform for the whole job: issues, agents, checks and deploys to the edge.

syntaqxA repository's pages fail one card at a time: each page still fails on what it is about (the pull request, the issue, the commit, the run, the file, the list), and every other read goes through part(), so a service that does not answer leaves Unavailable in that card's place, not a blank card or a crashed page. Pull request: the diff, Sessions, Decisions, What happened, the preview, the merge queue's findings, Labels, Milestone, Notifications and the reviewer and assignee pickers each say so in place (settings stay strict: unread, they would let checks be ignored). Issue: Labels, Milestone, Notifications, assignees, links from outside g1t, Work and Decisions. Commit: its pull request (a stream that could reject into an Await with no errorElement), comments and the issues it closed. Code, tree and file: branches (inside the branch menu), deployments, the fork's source, the About sidebar (Packages no longer says "No packages published" when it could not be read) and a file's CODEOWNERS check; environmentsFor and forkSourceFor no longer swallow failures. Actions: workflows; a run's artifacts and job summaries; a check run's annotations. Deployments: environments, history and g1t.page hosting each on their own, never "No deployments yet" or "members can turn on hosting" because of a failure; a deployment that cannot be read is a 503, not a 404. Work: Live now, the queue, What happened, Just landed. Lists: label and milestone filters, branch rows' pull requests and previews, activity (no longer "No activity yet"), fork descriptions, compare's branches and changes, new pull request's forks and a named fork. Overview: Needs you, deployments, observability. Boundaries around the README, About, the run graph, annotations, summaries, report cards and the sidebar boxes. Kept quiet on purpose, each a decoration or an extra the service checks again: teams for mentions, ended claims, merge choices (settings answer), job-by-job checks, watcher and tag counts, the star count, release suggestions, compute notes, the plan on Deployments. Checked: apps/web tsc -b; npm test (987, 1 skipped).

g1t/deploy

Builds the checkout a g1t Actions job is in and puts it on g1t.page: production when the run is on the project's production branch, the pull request's preview for a pull request's run, and the branch's preview for a run on any other branch.

The project must have Deployments on, and the workspace's plan must include them. The guide, Deploying from a workflow, says what is built and when.

Inputs

InputDefault
projectThe repository's one project with Deployments onThe project's slug. Needed when the repository has several.
root-dirThe project's settingWhere the project is in the checkout.
build-commandThe project's setting, else what the build findsWhat builds it.
output-dirThe project's setting, else the folder the framework writes, else the first of dist, build, out, public, _site, .output/publicThe folder a static build writes.
build-asThe project's setting, else autoWhat it is built as: auto, static, workers or docker. A container is built with the docker on the job's PATH.
dockerfileThe project's setting, else Dockerfile or ContainerfileThe Dockerfile a container is built from, relative to the project.
shaThe run's commitThe commit this is a build of, for its g1t / deploy check.
token${{ github.token }}The job's own token. It needs deployments: write; any other token is refused.

How it works

  1. It calls POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/deployments/builds with the job's token. g1t checks the plan and the spend limit, decides production or preview from the run, sets the commit's g1t / deploy check to pending, and answers with a token for this build alone and the project's variables and secrets for builds of that kind.
  2. It masks that token and every secret with ::add-mask::.
  3. It runs g1t-runner deploy in the checkout, which installs, builds and uploads the app exactly as g1t's own builds do, and reports to g1t with the build's token. The build's log is in the step's.

A pull request from a fork or from someone without the Write role, and a run that had to be approved, build without the project's secrets. The build's time is the job's Actions time; it is not charged again.

g1t-runner is on g1t's machines. Elsewhere (a self-hosted runner), the action uses the one on PATH, or downloads the newest release from https://g1t.sh/downloads/runner/latest/ and checks it against the release's SHA256SUMS. It runs on Linux and macOS, with curl and either jq or python3.
