GitHub Actions – CI: how can I download the dmapp packages from GitHub?

Hi Dojo!

I created an Automationscript solution on GitHub and configured the “CI” action workflow:
GitHub reusable workflows | DataMiner Docs

I’m satisfied to have this validation in place to see if my scripts + NuGets are compiling, as well as the analyses that run on Sonar-Cloud to get code feedback.

Now my question is:

How can I download this package to deploy it on a remote DMS? (Note that the remote DMS is not yet Cloud Connected so I can’t Deploy over the cloud via “CD” or “CICD” workflows)

I noticed on the REPO itself there seem to be no releases or packages available. (see image below)
Should they have ended up in there?   Thank you.

Hi Thijs,

Downloading artifacts from GitHub directly is indeed not supported at the moment.
Currently, the different options are:
– Enable CD in order to publish to the Catalog. To get there you can use a random dma token for now (your own test dma for example). Then you can download it from the catalog.
– Take a local copy and build the package using DIS.

Regards,

Hi Thijs

atm it is not possible to download this package from GitHub. We only support direct deployment to a system that is connected to dataminer.services.

Thanks Baptiste. This would be a useful feature in my opinion. So hope it could get in there one day 🙂
