GitHub Actions fails with "fatal: ls-files -i must be used with either -o or -c"

Puppet Github Actions

These are reusable workflows to run Puppet tests within Github Actions.

They are heavily focused on the workflow that Vox Pupuli uses, which rely on rake tasks from puppetlabs_spec_helper. The tasks executed are:

validate
lint
check
rubocop if enabled (default)
parallel_spec in a matrix for every supported Puppet version

For more information, see GitHub's workflow reuse documentation.

Vox Pupuli uses these workflows to test modules. You can reuse them for your own modules (as documented in the next section). But they can also be configured to test modules that are vendored in a controlrepository or a monorepository. See Working with a subdirectory for details.

Gemfile integration examples

Below is an annotated example Gemfile which should provide a working environment. It's the minimum needed.

source 'https://rubygems.org'

# The development group is intended for developer tooling. CI will never install this.
group :development do
end

# The test group is used for static validations and unit tests in gha-puppet's
# basic and beaker gha-puppet workflows.
group :test do
  # Require the latest Puppet by default unless a specific version was requested
  # CI will typically set it to '~> 7.0' to get 7.x
  gem 'puppet', ENV.fetch('PUPPET_GEM_VERSION', '>= 0'), require: false
  # Needed to build the test matrix based on metadata
  gem 'puppet_metadata', '~> 3.4', require: false
  # Needed for the rake tasks
  gem 'puppetlabs_spec_helper', '>= 2.16.0', '< 7', require: false
  # Rubocop versions are also specific so it's recommended
  # to be precise. Can be turned off via a parameter
  gem 'rubocop', require: false
end

# The system_tests group is used in gha-puppet's beaker workflow.
group :system_tests do
  gem 'beaker', require: false
  gem 'beaker-docker', require: false
  gem 'beaker-rspec', '>= 8.0', require: false
end

# The release group is used in gha-puppet's release workflow
group :release do
  gem 'puppet-blacksmith', '>= 6', '< 8', require: false
end

It is recommended to use voxpupuli-test, voxpupuli-acceptance, and voxpupuli-release to manage the dependencies.

  gem 'puppet_metadata', '~> 3.2',  require: false
  # metagem that pulls in all further requirements
  gem 'voxpupuli-test', '~> 7.0', require: false
end

# The system_tests group is used in gha-puppet's beaker workflow.
group :system_tests do
  gem 'voxpupuli-acceptance', '~> 2.1', require: false
end

# The release group is used in gha-puppet's release workflow
group :release do
  gem 'voxpupuli-release', '~> 3.0', '>= 3.0.1'
end

Rakefile integration example

This is the most minimal Rakefile you can have and still use all the shared actions.

begin
  require 'puppetlabs_spec_helper/rake_tasks'
rescue LoadError
  # Allowed to fail, only needed in test
end

begin
  require 'beaker-rspec/rake_task'
rescue LoadError
  # Allowed to fail, only needed in acceptance
end

begin
  require 'puppet_blacksmith/rake_tasks'
rescue LoadError
  # Allowed to fail, only needed in release
end

Calling test workflows

It is recommended to create a single workflow for all Puppet tests and name it .github/workflows/puppet.yml.

Basic tests

There is a workflow defined that runs the basic tests. It does not run acceptance tests.

name: CI

on: pull_request

concurrency:
  group: ${{ github.ref_name }}
  cancel-in-progress: true

jobs:
  puppet:
    name: Puppet
    uses: voxpupuli/gha-puppet/.github/workflows/basic.yml@v1

To disable Rubocop, modify the job:

jobs:
  puppet:
    name: Puppet
    uses: voxpupuli/gha-puppet/.github/workflows/basic.yml@v1
    with:
      rubocop: false

Beaker tests

For modules using beaker for acceptance testing there is a workflow which also includes the basic tests. Like basic tests, it accepts a rubocop parameter.

name: CI

on: pull_request

concurrency:
  group: ${{ github.ref_name }}
  cancel-in-progress: true

jobs:
  puppet:
    name: Puppet
    uses: voxpupuli/gha-puppet/.github/workflows/beaker.yml@v1

Install additional packages

The basic and the beaker workflow support the additional_packages input string. You can use that to install additional packages. The String is passed to sudo apt-get install -y

jobs:
  puppet:
    name: Puppet
    uses: voxpupuli/gha-puppet/.github/workflows/basic.yml@v1
    with:
      additional_packages: 'libaugeas-dev augeas-tools'

Calling the release workflow

The release workflow relies on puppet-blacksmith and in particular the module:push rake task.

There is one input:

allowed_owner - The workflow only runs if the owner matches. This prevents forks from attempting to release.

There are multiple secrets (GitHub's secrets documentation):

username - The Puppet Forge username
api_key - The Puppet Forge API key

It is recommended to create a workflow .github/workflows/release.yml.

name: Release

on:
  push:
    tags:
      - '*'

jobs:
  deploy:
    name: Deploy
    uses: voxpupuli/gha-puppet/.github/workflows/release.yml@v1
    with:
      allowed_owner: MY_GITHUB_USERNAME
    secrets:
      username: ${{ secrets.PUPPET_FORGE_USERNAME }}
      api_key: ${{ secrets.PUPPET_FORGE_API_KEY }}

Working with a subdirectory

Assume you've a controlrepository or a monorepository:

.
├── bin
│   └── config_script.sh
├── data
│   └── nodes
├── environment.conf
├── hiera.yaml
├── LICENSE
├── manifests
│   └── site.pp
├── Puppetfile
├── README.md
└── site
    └── profiles
        ├── files
        ├── Gemfile
        ├── manifests
        ├── metadata.json
        ├── Rakefile
        ├── REFERENCE.md
        └── templates

You can use our workflow for the vendored module (in this example profiles) as well. They all support a working-directory input that you can set to the vendored module:

name: CI

on: pull_request

concurrency:
  group: ${{ github.ref_name }}
  cancel-in-progress: true

jobs:
  puppet:
    name: Puppet
    uses: voxpupuli/gha-puppet/.github/workflows/beaker.yml@v1
    working-directory: ./site/profiles

	- name: Setup Test Matrix
	id: get-outputs
	run: bundle exec metadata2gha --use-fqdn
