act

Run your GitHub Actions locally

Why would you want to do this? Two reasons:

  • Fast Feedback: Rather than having to commit/push every time you want to test out the changes you are making to your .github/workflows/ files (or for any changes to embedded GitHub actions), you can use act to run the actions locally. The environment variables and filesystem are all configured to match what GitHub provides.
  • Local Task Runner: With act, you can use the GitHub Actions defined in your .github/workflows/ to replace your Makefile!
