# Setup MSYS2
**setup-msys2** is a JavaScript GitHub Action (GHA) to setup a full-featured [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/) environment, using the GHA [toolkit](https://github.com/actions/toolkit).
The latest tarball available at [repo.msys2.org/distrib/x86_64](http://repo.msys2.org/distrib/x86_64/) is cached. Using the action extracts it and provides an entrypoint named `msys2do`.
## Usage
```yaml
- uses: numworks/setup-msys2@v1
- run: msys2do uname -a
```
### Options
#### msystem
By default, `MSYSTEM` is set to `MINGW64`. However, an optional parameter named `msystem` is supported, which expects `MSYS`, `MINGW64` or `MING32`. For example:
```yaml
- uses: numworks/setup-msys2@v1
with:
msystem: MSYS
```
Furthermore, the environment variable can be overriden. This is useful when multiple commands need to be executed in different contexts. For example, in order to build a PKGBUILD file and then test the installed artifact:
```yaml
- uses: numworks/setup-msys2@v1
with:
msystem: MSYS
- run: msys2do makepkg-mingw -sCLfc --noconfirm --noprogressbar
- run: msys2do pacman --noconfirm -U mingw-w64-*-any.pkg.tar.xz
- run: |
set MSYSTEM=MINGW64
msys2do
```
#### path-type
By default, `MSYS2_PATH_TYPE` is set to `strict` by `msys2do`. It is possible to override it either using an option or setting the environment variable explicitly:
```yaml
- uses: numworks/setup-msys2@v1
with:
path-type: inherit
- run: msys2do
```
```yaml
- uses: numworks/setup-msys2@v1
- run: msys2do
env:
MSYS2_PATH_TYPE: inherit
```
#### update
By default, the installation is not updated; hence package versions are those of the installation tarball. By setting option `update` to `true`, the action will execute `pacman -Syu --no-confirm`:
```yaml
- uses: numworks/setup-msys2@v1
with:
update: true
```
