# Gitleaks GitHub Action


gitleaks

Gitleaks Action provides a simple way to run Gitleaks in your CI/CD pipeline.
## Why here?
This repository is here to support the Gitleaks action with all the updates from [Gitleaks source project](https://github.com/zricethezav/gitleaks). With the new 2.0 version of [gitleaks/gitleaks-action GitHub Action](https://github.com/gitleaks/gitleaks-action#-why-is-my-gitleaks-action-job-suddenly-failing) they went to a commercial licence.

### Sample Workflow
```
name: gitleaks

on: [push,pull_request]

jobs:
gitleaks:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v1
- name: gitleaks-action
uses: dhsathiya/gitleaks-action@master
```

### Using your own .gitleaks.toml configuration
```
name: gitleaks

on: [push,pull_request]

jobs:
gitleaks:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v1
- name: gitleaks-action
uses: dhsathiya/gitleaks-action@master
with:
config-path: security/.gitleaks.toml
```
> The `config-path` is relative to your GitHub Worskpace

### NOTE!!!
You must use `actions/checkout` before the gitleaks-action step. If you are using `actions/checkout@v2` you must specify a commit depth other than the default which is 1.

ex:
```
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
fetch-depth: '0'
- name: gitleaks-action
uses: dhsathiya/gitleaks-action@master
```

using a fetch-depth of '0' clones the entire history. If you want to do a more efficient clone, use '2', but that is not guaranteed to work with pull requests.
