Update 2024-02-17: Delete Artifact Endpoint proto

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

ChristopherHX · 2023-12-19T22:20:04Z

Hmm they are not using protobuf in the toolkit yet, but the code exists

They use the json representation of protobuf and not the binary protocol.

ChristopherHX · 2023-12-20T21:21:17Z

Only the origin of ACTIONS_RESULTS_URL is used so if it contains a baseurl path that is ignored.

Base url is always /twirp/github.actions.results.api.v1.ArtifactService of a user specified origin. Both http/https and port of the origin are preserved.

ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN must be a jwt token with claim scp containing a Actions.Results:{runid}:{jobId} value (replace {runid} and {jobId} with an id or guid, that is passed in each api request

GHES and GITEA are blocked by the current toolkit code and won't work as of now.

Gitea would have to switch to jwt tokens if they would want to support artifacts v4 from GitHub as soon it is allowed in GHES

TWiStErRob · 2024-01-26T12:36:45Z

@ChristopherHX what's the current state of ...-artifact@v4 support in act? and what are the steps required to get there?

When using new version, I'm getting

::error::Invalid token specified: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'replace')

which is consistent with your findings about jwt tokens above.

ChristopherHX · 2024-01-26T15:30:48Z

what's the current state of ...-artifact@v4 support in act

0%

in gitea 80%, it's also in go so not that much to fear.

We could port go-gitea/gitea@main...ChristopherHX:gitea:gitea-artifacts-v4 to act.

My time is currently limited due to exam period.

ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN has never been set by act itself...

- Issue: nektos/act#329 - Discussion: nektos/act#2135

zdenardi · 2024-02-05T22:54:22Z

I'm still getting
::error::Invalid token specified: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'replace')
Any update on this?

JoshMcCullough · 2024-04-10T16:25:56Z

Also seeing this with upload-artifact@v4 -- any fix?

ChristopherHX · 2024-04-10T16:49:33Z

The fix is #2224, but it doesn't meet the 50% (has 40%) coverage requirement of this project. Due to unused generated code of google protobuf.

go-gitea/gitea requirements are not that strict and it has been merged months ago

JoshMcCullough · 2024-04-10T16:53:48Z

@ChristopherHX thanks for your work on this, and for the update.

I think I've hit the same issue on act version 0.2.62:

This workflow works fine on github.

rorycl · 2024-05-20T22:02:38Z

Hi @ChristopherHX. Thanks very much for the note about the JWT token to fix the problem with artifacts-component. That seems to work fine.

However, running on e1e5671 I'm getting a related error: Unable to get the ACTIONS_RESULTS_URL env variable.

I'm invoking act as follows:

~/go/bin/act -v \
   -artifact-server-path=/tmp/artifacts \
   --env ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzY3AiOiJBY3Rpb25zLlJlc3VsdHM6e3J1bmlkfTp7am9iSWR9In0.uQOTIBLfmTt_NHUzaNcZHk8RcjWGwHxrfmon2-hUzPo

(That jwt has the contents you suggested, see jwt.io).

Apologies if I've missed something here. Let me know if I should file a new issue or specify an ACTIONS_RESULTS_URL in the environment.

However, running on e1e5671 I'm getting a related error: Unable to get the ACTIONS_RESULTS_URL env variable.

I don't know what you are doing..... this is missing a dash (-)

-artifact-server-path=/tmp/artifacts

And doing --env ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN is a very bad idea

For me it works like that

../act -W test.yml -P ubuntu-latest=-self-hosted --env GITHUB_REPOSITORY=me/me --artifact-server-path $PWD

test.yml is from my comment in the PR.
--env GITHUB_REPOSITORY=me/me is only there because I didn't have any valid repo at my pwd

ChristopherHX · 2024-05-20T22:54:18Z

Also if ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN is not a JWT, you might be using a different version of act than you claim to be using

rorycl · 2024-05-21T08:57:41Z

Thanks very much for your response, @ChristopherHX . Apologies, the missing hyphen was the problem.

I can confirm that

~/go/bin/act \
   --artifact-server-path=/tmp/artifacts \
   --env ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN=$(<jwt)

runs successfully from a fresh compilation from e1e5671 and from the latest artifact run on linux amd64.

For anyone needing a jwt, please see the comment concerning making jwt with the contents

{"scp": "Actions.Results:{runid}:{jobId}"}

for example this one.

TWiStErRob · 2024-05-21T12:03:30Z

With the PR merged, do we still need to manually mint a JWT? Shouldn't act be doing that internally?

rorycl · 2024-05-21T12:07:53Z

You are right, @TWiStErRob

~/go/bin/act --artifact-server-path=/tmp/artifacts without a jwt worked for me on a local test run, with act on e1e5671.

Apologies for the noise.

tokidoki11 · 2024-05-22T08:43:02Z

sorry is there any release ETA?

ChristopherHX · 2024-05-22T13:03:16Z

I didn't even create this as a feature request, this issue contains much technical details for implementing the feature from scratch. Therefore are references to the jwt format or the google protobuf file part of this issue, all of them are mostly irrelevant for users of the act executable.

sorry is there any release ETA?

June 2024, cron job will create a release as long it doesn't fail to do so

Nobody prevents you from downloading the executable associated with all Pullrequests that are merged from the GitHub Artifact List or just clone or doing a go build.
