setup-babashka

This action sets up Babashka environment for using in GitHub Actions. So you can use a clojure interpreter in your CI environment.

Usage

name: Simple example of using the babashka action

on: [push]

jobs:
  simple:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Setup Babashka
        uses: turtlequeue/[email protected]
        with:
          babashka-version: 1.3.189

      - name: Check bb runs
        run: bb --version

Rationale

You may be using this already:

$ bash < <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/babashka/babashka/master/install)

That's great! And this is what this action uses under the hood.

However this action is useful still for:

  • supporting more platforms (windows)
  • pinning the babashka version
  • using the github api to cache between runs
  • (advanced) using a CI build by specifying a babashka-url (see below)

Use a CI version

You probably don't want to do that. Using a CI build of babashka is possible. They can be found on the babashka CI build artefacts or on appveyor for windows builds.

Keep in mind that:

  • the CI builds from babashka will expire
  • the platform detection is up to you
name: install babashka
