Bug: manifests path set using Environment variables throw error "no such file or directory, lstat '$FOLDER/k8s/deploy" about k8s-deploy

[ezYakaEagle442]

The error does not happen when I hard code the Manifests paths :

- name: Deploy Manifests to AKS
  uses: Azure/k8s-deploy@v4
  with:
    namespace: ${{ env.PETCLINIC_NAMESPACE }}
    manifests: |
        spring-petclinic-config-server/k8s/deploy
        spring-petclinic-vets-service/k8s/deploy
        spring-petclinic-customers-service/k8s/deploy
        spring-petclinic-visits-service/k8s/deploy

This syntax is not valid in GitHub workflows. This wouldn't work with any action.

You should be using something like

- run: echo ::set-output name=server_folder::${{ env.PRJ_PREFIX }}-${{ env.CONFIG_SERVER }}
   id: variables
- name: Deploy Manifests
  uses: Azure/k8s-deploy@v4
  with:
    namespace: ${{ env.PETCLINIC_NAMESPACE }}
    manifests: |
        ${{ steps.variables.outputs.server_folder }}/k8s/deploy

Here's a related discussion with more examples.
