Could someone with >10k rep on SO check out stackoverflow.com/questions/75921120/… ? I swear there used to be an answer here but I don't see it anymore

are LDQs still on topic in this chat room now that PLDI.se exists?

like more specific or opinion based problems

I need some help with a github workflow

Can you guys see the logs? github.com/bbrk24/Trilangle/actions/runs/5074878848/jobs/…

Basically, the actions/setup-node@v3 step installed Node 16.20, but then the run script complained that I had Node 15.14 which is an unsupported version

that doesn't seem to be what it's complaining about

Author identity unknown

*** Please tell me who you are.

Run

  git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
  git config --global user.name "Your Name"

to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.

fatal: empty ident name (for <runner@fv-az362-248.irmh1a0300hepaf5bq0acnis3g.bx.internal.cloudapp.net>) not allowed

Well yes I know that's a thing but I can fix that easily

I'm confused about the EBADENGINE because that just shouldn't happen

Maybe I just have to setup node after emscripten?

Ah yep, emscripten comes with node 15

odd, the workflow you're using to set up emscripten says it was recently updated to node 16

github.com/numworks/setup-emscripten/blob/master/action.yml

I'm using tag latest instead of branch master

no that's not it

@lyxal emsdk comes with node15 bundled even if you already have node16 from elsewhere

@lyxal Most things are suggesting I set my email to something ending in @users.noreply.github.com, but I'm not sure what to make the name or the first part of the email

that's the thing, you don't

github provides you with one

36217120+Lyxal@users.noreply.github.com for example

that's what it gave me

where do I see that?

email settings

(unrelated: I saw my uni email in my email settings and thought "hey wait why did I link that for" and then remembered "oh yeah that's right the student benefits like free copilot")

So then is the user.name just my gh username?

It shows you what it uses

Yeah I saw that but that's for user.email

what do I set user.name to?

does it matter?

doesn't look like it

I was thinking sth like github actions (for bbrk24)

:+1: if that's what you want

And yep, running setup-emscripten before setup-node fixed the EBADENGINE

> fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com': No such device or address

github.com/bbrk24/Trilangle/actions/runs/5075043898/jobs/…

what does that mean

SO says something about SSH keys?

oh maybe I need to set a PAT, that would make sense

are you trying to use npm run deploy to publish to pages?

yes, deploy pushes to the github-pages branch

why not use the deploy pages workflow?

github.com/actions/deploy-pages

I had set up that deploy script when I was doing it manually and npm run deploy is a lot easier to do in bash

but now that you have a workflow file, you can just include it

      - name: Upload built HTML
        uses: actions/upload-pages-artifact@v1
        with:
          path: './pages'

      - name: Deploy to GitHub Pages
        id: deployment
        uses: actions/deploy-pages@v1

a little something like that

pointed to the path where your artifact is

The thing is the compiled files are just loose in the wasm folder

  - name: Upload built HTML
    uses: actions/upload-pages-artifact@v1
    with:
      path: './wasm'

no?

Won't that also include the entirety of node_modules?

it will, but I would assume those are needed for the website to work, no?

No!

node_modules are needed for compiling coffeescript and scss

but not for it to actually run

then step back a second: where does the compiled wasm end up?

See github.com/bbrk24/Trilangle/tree/gh-pages

@lyxal The files I want are in the wasm folder, but I only want six of the files from that folder

then move those into their own folder in the bash and upload that folder

Also, emcc said it placed a cache in /opt/hostedtoolcache/emscripten/latest/x64/upstream/emscripten/cache/sysroot/lib/wasm32-emscripten/lto. I presume I want to persist this between workflow runs for better performance, but how?

@Jacob .

@Bbrk24 aaaaaaaaaaaaa coffeescript

I've talked about this before and I am not taking suggestions

SE is really ratelimiting me (apparently?), which is bad for se client testing :(

@Bbrk24 I think you can commit/push artifacts from workflows to the repository

Although last time I tried doing something like that it played up a little

I don't remember the specifics

Oh no it did work

Oh, there's actions/cache

That's probably better than what I'm thinking of :p

docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/…

It says stuff about sensitive information but it's just .a files so that's fine right?

What's a .a file?

@Seggan yep, captchad

@lyxal upon investigation the problems I'm thinking of was when I was trying to use if statements in a workflow

@lyxal static libraries you link into during compilation

Those shouldn't contain sensitive information then

It does create a json file but that's in a different directory so that won't be persisted

Worth a try and if github tells you there's an oopsie with a published secret then nuke it :p

Even if it succeeds this time, I have to run it again to see if I set the cache up right

Okay the build succeeded but the deploy failed

github.com/bbrk24/Trilangle/actions/runs/5075540111/jobs/…

What can I do about a 'HttpError: Invalid environment node id'?

the cache works though

Wait, maybe it's something stupid like unrelated git history? I'm really hesitant to just delete my gh-pages branch though

or did I forget to set an environment variable

Okay I got it to work! I had to change something in my repo settings to allow a workflow to publish it

Should that really be feature-request?

There I go

@Bbrk24 Frankly, I dunno what that tag is for.

codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/tags/feature-request/info

Well, I don't really have the "justification".

> Prove to administration that they should spend time developing your feature

this isn't something admin needs to work on, so I'd say this tag doesn't apply. But what do I know

I guess this is a mere discussion, then...

Yeah, this is just discussion

@Bbrk24 If your laptop was closed then that makes sense

It just displays the time since the last time it checked, and if the laptop was closed, it wouldn't have been checking

I believe it would start checking again once you opened the laptop
