Add a job where the tag is checked if it is valid, it also checks if the
release should be published to Flathub beta and/or Flathub by
dynamically setting the matrix.
Hardcode short hash length to 9 characters in CI and packaging scripts.
It is not guaranteed that short hashes are the same length across
different platforms or different versions of git. This caused problems
with upload/download action names, as the hashes sometimes didn't match.
Fix the download artifact name in the Windows installer job and the
macOS notarization job to prevent them from failing due to a name
mismatch.
Update all of our GitHub Actions to the latest versions. Notably, the
update to actions/cache gives support for the 10GB GitHub Actions cache,
and the updates for the other first-party actions are required for
future M1 runner support.
We currently publish the same build from the same branch
to Flathub. However, soon we'll need to build the Flatpak
manifest in different branches, and publish them in different
repositories.
Prepare for that by splitting the publish step in two: one
for Flathub, and another for Flathub Beta. Do that using
a matrix strategy.
Skip building and publishing stable releases when it's a beta
or RC release by setting an output variable in the first job.
We'll soon be moving to branching before releases, which
is a case that the current Flatpak worflow did not account
for.
Adapt it to also run on release/** branches.
Beta releases are being considered, in which case the tag
name will contain '-beta' instead of '-rc'. Adapt the CI
workflow to take '-beta' into account too.
Now that Flatpak has achieved full feature parity with non-Flatpak
builds, it is time to publish it directly into Flathub.
Add a new "publish" job to the Flatpak workflow that builds and
publishes to Flathub Beta, and to Flathub (if the release tag
doesn't contain '-rc').
Rename "flatpak_builder" to "generate_bundle", and set the display
name to "Generate Flatpak Bundle". This will make it less vague,
which will come in handy since next commits will add new jobs to
this workflow.
The flatpak-builder tool now supports passing secrets options to the
build system. These options are not printed during the build, nor
added to the resolved manifest after build, so they don't leak env
vars from CI.
Make secret variables part of the Flatpak workflow environment, like
the main workflow. Pass the various services hashes and clientids to
the build system using the new "secret-opts" key.
The Flatpak action now contains two subactions:
- flatpak-builder: for building and uploading a bundle
- flat-manager: for deploying the bundle to a remote repository
Use the right action (flatpak-builder) for the Flatpak workflow.
This won't affect existing pull requests, except the ones that
have the "Seeking Testers" label applied - in which case, they
simply need to rebase against the master branch.
This is a simple, isolated workflow that generates Flatpak
bundles when running on the master branch, or when a pull
request has the "Seeking Testers" label.
