Install private github package from package.json on Github Actions

问题

I'm trying to implement Github actions as a CI on my project. The problem is that I'm using private git URL on my package.json but CI gets an error because Github actions "somehow" doesn't have access to that repo which it's impossible because it's on the same user account.

Does anyone have any idea how to figure this out?

main.workflow file:

workflow "Github Actions" {
  on = "pull_request"
  resolves = ["Danger JS"]
}

action "Build" { <-------- This gets error
  uses = "actions/npm@master"
  args = "install"
}

action "Linter" {
  uses = "actions/npm@master"
  needs = "Build"
  runs = "lint"
}

action "Test" {
  needs = "Linter"
  uses = "actions/npm@master"
  args = "test"
}

action "Danger JS" {
  uses = "danger/danger-js@master"
  needs = ["Test"]
  secrets = ["DANGERJS_TOKEN"]
}

Error log:

回答1:

You can put an authToken, which has read rights to the registry into a .npmrc in repository where you run npm install.

Example:

//npm.pkg.github.com/:_authToken=**************
@youraccount:registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com

Now there is a dedicated action to automatically setup nodejs it's called actions/setup-node

Here an example:

steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-node@v1
  with:
    node-version: '10.x'
    registry-url: 'https://registry.npmjs.org'
- run: npm install
  env:
    NODE_AUTH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.NPM_TOKEN }}

It creates a local .npmrc file that is using the environment variable to get the authentication token:

//registry.npmjs.org/:_authToken=${NODE_AUTH_TOKEN}
@youraccount:registry=https://registry.npmjs.org

You can use if to target any private registry, like GitHub packages for instance
