Maghic: a Swiss army knife for GitHub Actions Workflow

Maghic is a Swiss army knife tool for GitHub Actions Workflow.

This is created for the GitHub Actions Hackathon: 2021 GitHub Actions Hackathon on DEV

My Workflow

Maghic provides:

  • a command line tool for managing, creating and autogenerate Yaml file Workflow for GitHub Actions;
  • a set of classes and methods for managing Yaml file (specific for GitHub Actions Workflows).

You can create your GitHub Actions workflow with some code like this one:

$yaml=\App\Objects\YamlObject::make()
        ->setName("My Test Name")
        ->setOnPushDefaultBranches()
        ->addMysqlService()
        ->addMatrixOsUbuntuLatest()
        ->toString();
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

OR you can use a command for:

  • Checking the syntax of the workflow file (maghic yaml:check);
  • Edit the workflow file with a wizard (maghic yaml:edit);
  • Generate automatically the workflow for your project (maghic yaml:guess).

How to generate automatically the workflow

You can create automatically your workflow for your project with the command:

./maghic yaml:guess --save ../yourprojects
