Skilled Teleportation\n\nGoal - provide sensible defaults to use [actions-sync](https://github.com/actions/actions-sync) on GitHub Enterprise Server when you're stuck with manually syncing Actions from GitHub.com into your server environment due to no network connectivity.\n\n\u003e **Note**\n\u003e\n\u003e There's a much easier, pain-free, and overall much better way to manage access to Actions using [GitHub Connect](https://docs.github.com/en/enterprise-server@latest/admin/configuration/configuring-github-connect/about-github-connect).\n\n## Directions\n\nYou have two paths here, a hard one and a slightly harder one.  Either way, you'll need a personal access token that can create organizations and write to all of the synced organizations (like `actions` or `github` on GHES).\n\n### The hard way\n\nCreate a new repository in GitHub.com, then (optionally) create an [`extra-actions.txt`](extra-actions.txt) file to suit your company's needs.  Create a workflow file in `.github/workflows/skills.yml`, example below.\n\n```yaml\nname: Bundle GitHub Actions to sync\n\non:\n  workflow_dispatch: # run on demand\n\njobs:\n  create-archive:\n    runs-on: ubuntu-latest # use the GitHub hosted runners\n    steps:\n      - name: Create the latest archive\n        uses: some-natalie/skilled-teleportation@v2\n        with:\n          list_file: extra-actions.txt\n```\n\nRun the workflow and then download the latest artifact, like shown below:\n\n![artifact-download](images/artifact-download.png)\n\nThe latest version of [actions-sync](https://github.com/actions/actions-sync) is in there, as is the script [`teleport-push.sh`](scripts/teleport-push.sh).  Examine/scan/etc everything in the zip file, fling it to the other side where your GHES instance is, then run the script as follows:\n\n```shell\n./teleport-push.sh \"https://github.yourcompany.com\" \"SOME-GITHUB-TOKEN\"\n```\n\n### The slightly harder way\n\n1. Download [actions-sync](https://github.com/actions/actions-sync) on the machine that pulls from GitHub.com and the machine that pushes into GHES.\n1. Create a list of Actions to sync over.  This Action just pulls over everything in [github.com/skills](https://github.com/skills), plus dependencies defined in [`skills-dependencies.txt`](skills-dependencies.txt) and anything extra in [`extra-actions.txt`](extra-actions.txt).  You can use the [`teleport-pull.sh`](scripts/teleport-pull.sh) script to do this if you'd like.\n1. Tarball the whole thing up.\n1. Untar it on the other side, then push the Actions into GHES.  You can use the [`teleport-push.sh`](scripts/teleport-push.sh) script to do this if you'd like.\n1. If needed, change each repo that needs to be a template (such as the Skills repositories).\n\n## But why though?\n\nThere's a couple reasons.\n\n1. [skills.github.com](https://skills.github.com) is cool and, if you have self-hosted Actions runners with the `ubuntu-latest` label and the appropriate software installed on them, your on-premises users can have some neat self-paced training too.\n1. Provide some sensible defaults to what can/should be synced from GitHub.com into your GHES installation.\n1. Provide a framework to add more things to sync over.\n1. I wanted to pick apart on-premises Actions without using GitHub Connect a little bit more.\n1. Highlight how much easier this is using [GitHub Connect](https://docs.github.com/en/enterprise-server@latest/admin/configuration/configuring-github-connect/about-github-connect) instead. :heart:\n\n## CodeQL\n\nDon't use this for syncing CodeQL.  There's another tool specifically for that called [codeql-action-sync-tool](https://github.com/github/codeql-action-sync-tool).  It's not included in this Action by default because it also grabs the binary assets for CodeQL which adds a couple GBs to the archive.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsome-natalie%2Fskilled-teleportation","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fsome-natalie%2Fskilled-teleportation","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsome-natalie%2Fskilled-teleportation/lists"}
