Implementation of actions/tool-cache toolkit in composite GitHub Actions.

A Tool Cache for composite-based GitHub Actions.

This action supports Ubuntu, Windows, and macOS.

The purpose of this action is to provide composite-based actions an easy way to install programs on GitHub Actions.

JavaScript-based actions already have actions/tool-cache toolkit to facilitate in installing programs in GitHub Actions.

With this tool cache action, you don't need to worry writing a code in installing the program and adding it to PATH, you just download the program and extract it to a folder inside runner temp, just like actions/tool-cache toolkit.

1. Create a folder with the name of the program you want to install inside ${{ runner.temp }}.
2. Extract all of the files required by the program to that folder inside ${{ runner.temp }} you have created.
3. Run this action with the name of the folder inside ${{ runner.temp }} you used to extract all the files needed for the program.

steps:
  - name: Install the Hello World binary using tool-cache
    uses: AnimMouse/tool-cache@v1
    with:
      folder_name: hello-world-program

You can check the .github/workflows/test.yaml file inside this repository to see how it works by installing a Hello World program.
You can also check actions that uses this tool cache.
