Kong Pongo action

A Github Action for running plugin tests using Kong Pongo.

Usage

See the Kong Pongo repo for help on Pongo commands and environments.

This action will install and configure Pongo for a specific version of Kong Gateway to test against. The settings will be exported as standard Pongo environment variables, such that any follow up commands will work with the same settings.

Inputs

input	default	required	description
kong_version		yes	The Kong Gateway version to test your plugin against. Check the Pongo documentation for allowed formats for latest patch releases and/or nightly builds.
pongo_version	"latest"	yes	The Pongo version to use for testing. This can be a Pongo version tag or branch name (use "master" for bleeding-edge). A special case is "latest" which will use the latest released version.
start_environment	"true"	no	By default the test environment will be spun up. Set this value to "false" to not start the test environment.
build_image	"true"	no	By default the test image will be build. Set this value to "false" to not build the test image.
license	value of env var KONG_LICENSE_DATA	no	The Kong license. This is only required if you are testing a plugin against an Enterprise version of the Kong Gateway. Note: make sure to pass it to Github as a secret!
