Repository to host a static API using GitHub workflows.
When CI is ran, static files are generated and commited to the specified branch.
The file generator.py
provides a list of static file generator classes. Each class has a name.
The configuration file config.json
is read which contains the configuration for the API.
By specifying the name of the generator in the generators
array of the configuration, the corresponding generator will be used. The current object of the configuration is passed to the generator.
The following configuration generates static files using the contributors
and releases
generator for selected repositories:
{
"api": [
{
"generators": ["releases", "contributors"],
"repositories": ["user/repo"]
}
]
}
All static files are generated in the output path specified in the configuration.
The purge
array in the configuration specifies which files should be deleted before generating the static files.
A repository variable CONFIG
is expected by CD with the configuration (string escaped) which will be used by CD to generate the static files.
