- [Add Signtool Action](#add-signtool-action)

  - [Usage](#usage)

    - [Outputs](#outputs)

      - [Examples](#examples)

Use this action to locate `signtool.exe` and add it to the `PATH` environment variable for easier execution throughout the rest of a workflow's job.

\*\***This action will only run on Windows runners, it will fail fast otherwise.**

Refer to [Microsoft's documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/tools/signtool-exe#examples) for more on signtool and how it works.

## Usage

```yml

on: push

jobs:

  build:

    runs-on: windows-latest

    steps:

      - uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - uses: KamaranL/add-signtool-action@v1

        id: signtool

      - run: Write-Output "$env:SIGNTOOL_DIR"

        # prints out the absolute path to the located signtool executable

        shell: pwsh

        env:

          SIGNTOOL_DIR: ${{ steps.signtool.outputs.signtool-x64 }}

```

### Outputs

This action outputs the path of the located signtool into the output key `signtool-${{ runner.arch }}`.

#### Examples

| ${{ runner.arch }} | outputs key  |
