I have the following code written which is meant to add a new tag to a repository. This works well if included in the project I'm trying to update directly.
name: Check Github Tags
on: push
jobs:
check-git-tags:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
fetch-depth: 0
- name: Print Repository info
run: |
echo 'Commit:' $GITHUB_SHA
echo 'Repository:' $GITHUB_REPOSITORY
echo 'Workspace:' $GITHUB_WORKSPACE
echo 'Ref:' $GITHUB_REF
git tag
- name: Push new tag
id: push_new_tag
uses: anothrNick/[email protected]
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
CUSTOM_TAG: test2
- name: Print New Tag Added
run: echo 'New tag' ${{steps.push_new_tag.outputs.new_tag}} 'added to commit' $GITHUB_SHA 'in' $GITHUB_REPOSITORY.
My question: Can I execute this script from outside of another project / repository? I need to "listen" for any new repositories being created within the organization and then tag the repository to ensure it has the 'test2' tag. So I really only need the workflow to run on the very first push to any new repo. But I don't know who will create the repo, what it will be called, etc. Is it possible to run this as a separate script?
