kedoska / invoke-paragon-action

Invoke any paragon endpoint from your repository.

This Github action is an unofficial Paragon Workflow invocator.
Before you start using this action, consider that Paragon is currently in Beta, and breaking changes may occur at any time.

1. This action will post into your Workflow endpoint the Github payload as is. For more details, please review the documentation.
2. You can send custom headers, adding those to the HTTP Request by specifying inputs.
3. By default, eventName parameter is added to the querystring.

Configure Paragon Workflow

The only requirement is to publish a workflow, exposing it via API Endpoint, waiting for "POST."
This action expects the workflow to return a 200 OK response.

Configure Github repository's settings

The Workflow ID is retrived by the action from your Github secrets, using the environment vars.
Do not expose your Workflow ID at any moment.

1. Go to your repository's settings and click Secrets in the sidebar.
2. Add a new secret and set the name to PARAGON_WORKFLOW_ID, they looks like xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx.
3. Paste the copied Endpoint ID from Paragon into the Value.
4. Click Add secret.

Configure Github repository's action

Basic Example

The following example sends the payload to the configured Paragon on every push event.

on: [push]

jobs:
  hello_paragon:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: Invoke Paragon Endpoint
      uses: kedoska/invoke-paragon-action@v1
      env:
        PARAGON_WORKFLOW_ID: ${{ secrets.PARAGON_WORKFLOW_ID }}

Add Headers Example

The following example sends the payload of the configured Paragon on every release event, adding three extra parameters in the headers of your workflow.
Param1, Param2, and Param3 are sent to your endpoint, as standard HTTP headers.
You can use these params to secure your endpoint as it is exposed to the Internet.

on: [push]

jobs:
  hello_paragon:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: Invoke Paragon Endpoint
      uses: kedoska/invoke-paragon-action@v1
      with:
          param1: "first param"
          param2: "second static param"
          param3: ${{ github.repository }}
      env:
        PARAGON_WORKFLOW_ID: ${{ secrets.PARAGON_WORKFLOW_ID }}
