Custom "details" link in the github pr checks


I saw that Chromatic action is able to change the "details" link in PR check and post an additional comment. Can someone help me to set it up in my own workflow? check the image for example


Solution

  • Seems the GitHub Actions: checks-action is a good fix to solve your problem:

    jobs:
      test_something:
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        steps:
        - uses: actions/checkout@v1
        - uses: actions/[email protected]
          id: test
        - uses: LouisBrunner/[email protected]
          if: always()
          with:
            token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
            name: Test XYZ
            conclusion: ${{ job.status }}
            output: |
              {"summary":${{ steps.test.outputs.summary }}}
    

    The output field could help:

    output:
    Supports the following properties:
    
    summary: Required, summary of your check
    text_description: Optional, a text description of your annotation (if any)
