A continuous benchmarking tool for GitHub Actions.

You can install the GitHub app here to get comments on pull requests and commits automatically.

This is not mandatory, and you can use this action without the app: instead of getting comments, the action will print an ASCII table in the logs.

name: My CI test
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    permissions:
      contents: read
      # more on this later
      id-token: write
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: Schniz/benchy-action@v2
        with:
          key: "a value to track"
          value: 666

Benchy is built to be hassle-free and to be used as fast as possible: without any authentication or registration. So, in order to authenticate the requests from GitHub Actions we use the OpenID Connect feature of GitHub Actions to get an ID token that is signed by GitHub and contains the information about the repository and the workflow run.

Enabling id-token: write on the GitHub Actions job will enable the action to get an ID token and use it to authenticate the requests to the Benchy API.

See the JSON Schema for the format of the JSON value/file.
