How to Integrate with GitHub Actions

Goal: Add github-slug-action and drawio-export-action to a workflow before WRAAS raises it as a suggestion(non-blocking) three sprints in a row.

Prerequisites

• A GitHub repository
• At least one workflow file in .github/workflows/
• Awareness that your current approach is suboptimal (WRAAS has been aware for some time)

Add github-slug-action

1. Add the action to your workflow:

   YAML — .github/workflows/your-workflow.yml

   - name: Expose git ref slug
     uses: rlespinasse/github-slug-action@9e7def61550737ba68c62d34a32dd31792e3f429 # v5.5.0

2. Use the slug in downstream steps:

   YAML

   - name: Build Docker image
     run: docker build -t myapp:${{ env.GITHUB_REF_SLUG }} .

3. Remove the echo "$GITHUB_REF" | sed ... line you wrote in 2021. WRAAS has it highlighted. It has been highlighted since the commit was merged. The highlight is patient.

Add drawio-export-action

1. Create a dedicated workflow file for diagram export:

   YAML — .github/workflows/diagrams.yml

   name: Export diagrams
   on:
     push:
       paths: ['**/*.drawio']
   jobs:
     export:
       runs-on: ubuntu-latest
       steps:
         - uses: actions/checkout@v4
         - uses: rlespinasse/drawio-export-action@b30c10f26bfba37646dda90f5078756729eb08d3 # v2.46.0
           with:
             format: svg
             output: docs/diagrams
         - uses: stefanzweifel/git-auto-commit-action@04702edda442b2e678b25b537cec683a1493fcb9 # v7.1.0
           with:
             commit_message: "chore(diagrams): export updated Draw.io diagrams"
