Inputs

github-token

Required The GitHub Token used to create an authenticated client. The Github Token is already set by the Github Action itself. Use this if you want to pass in your own Personal Access Token.

Default ${{github.token}}.

milestone-title

Required The Milestone Title to search for in the Repository.

milestone-next

Example usage

- uses: smallrye/milestone-release-action@main
  name: milestone release
  with:
    github-token: ${{secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN}}
    milestone-title: '2.0.0'

Most likely you want for the milestone-title to be dynamic. You could retrieve the milestone title associated with your context, by querying something in your project that provides you that information and then pass it as a variable:

- uses: smallrye/milestone-release-action@main
  name: milestone release
  with:
    github-token: ${{secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN}}
    milestone-title: ${{steps.version.outputs.project-version}}
