Examples

Basic Usage

name: CI

on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest  # or a self-hosted RHEL/Fedora runner
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - uses: yum-bundle/yum-bundle-action@v1

      - name: Build
        run: make build

Custom Yumfile Path

- uses: yum-bundle/yum-bundle-action@v1
  with:
    file: ci/Yumfile

Pin to Specific Version

- uses: yum-bundle/yum-bundle-action@v1
  with:
    version: "0.1.0"

Disable Caching

- uses: yum-bundle/yum-bundle-action@v1
  with:
    cache: "false"

Self-Hosted Runners

yum-bundle works best with self-hosted runners running RPM-based Linux (RHEL, CentOS Stream, Fedora, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux). GitHub’s hosted ubuntu-latest runner can run yum-bundle tests but cannot actually install RPM packages.

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: [self-hosted, linux, rhel]
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: yum-bundle/yum-bundle-action@v1
