上下文

About contexts

上下文是一种访问工作流程运行、运行器环境、作业及步骤相关信息的方式。 Each context is an object that contains properties, which can be strings or other objects.

Contexts, objects, and properties will vary significantly under different workflow run conditions. For example, the matrix context is only populated for jobs in a build matrix.

You can access contexts using the expression syntax. For more information, see "Expressions."

${{ <context> }}

As part of an expression, you can access context information using one of two syntaxes.

• 索引语法：github['sha']
• 属性解除参考语法：github.sha

要使用属性解除参考语法，属性名称必须：

• 以 a-Z 或 _ 开头。
• 后跟 a-Z 0-9 - 或 _。

确定何时使用上下文

GitHub Actions 包含一个称为上下文的变量集和一个称为默认环境变量的类似变量集。 这些变量预期用于工作流程中的不同点：

• 默认环境变量：这些变量仅存在于执行作业的运行器上。 更多信息请参阅“默认环境变量”。
• 上下文：您可以在工作流程的任何时候使用大多数上下文，包括当默认环境变量不可用时。 例如，您可以使用带表达式的上下文执行初始处理，然后将作业路由到运行器以供执行；这允许您使用带有条件 if 关键字的上下文来确定步骤是否应运行。 作业运行后，您还可以从执行作业的运行器（如 runner.os）检索上下文变量。 有关您可以在工作流程中使用各种上下文的详细信息，请参阅“上下文可用性”。

下面的示例演示了这些不同类型的环境变量如何在一个作业中一起使用：

name: CI
on: push
jobs:
  prod-check:
    if: ${{ github.ref == 'refs/heads/main' }}
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - run: echo "Deploying to production server on branch $GITHUB_REF"

在此示例中，if 语句检查 github.ref 上下文以确定当前分支名称；如果名称是 refs/heads/main，则执行后续步骤。 if 检查由 GitHub Actions 处理，作业仅在结果为 true 时才发送到运行器。 作业发送到运行器后， 该步骤将执行并引用运行器的 $GITHUB_REF 环境变量。

上下文可用性

在整个工作流程运行过程中，提供不同的上下文。 例如，secrets 上下文只能用于作业中的某些地方。

此外，某些功能只能在某些地方使用。 例如， hashFiles 函数� 法随处可用。

下表列出了工作流程中每一个上下文和特殊函数可以使用的地方。 除非下面列出，否则可以在任何地方使用函数。 | | 路径 | 上下文 | 特殊函数 | | --------------------------- | --------------------------- | --------------------------- | | concurrency | github | | | env | github, secrets | | | jobs.<job_id>.concurrency | github, needs, strategy, matrix | | | jobs.<job_id>.container | github, needs, strategy, matrix | | | jobs.<job_id>.container.credentials | github, needs, strategy, matrix, env, secrets | | | jobs.<job_id>.container.env.<env_id> | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets | | | jobs.<job_id>.continue-on-error | github, needs, strategy, matrix | | | jobs.<job_id>.defaults.run | github, needs, strategy, matrix, env | | | jobs.<job_id>.env | github, needs, strategy, matrix, secrets | | | jobs.<job_id>.environment | github, needs, strategy, matrix | | | jobs.<job_id>.environment.url | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, steps | | | jobs.<job_id>.if | github, needs | always, cancelled, success, failure | | jobs.<job_id>.name | github, needs, strategy, matrix | | | jobs.<job_id>.outputs.<output_id> | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets, steps | | | jobs.<job_id>.runs-on | github, needs, strategy, matrix | | | jobs.<job_id>.services | github, needs, strategy, matrix | | | jobs.<job_id>.services.<service_id>.credentials | github, needs, strategy, matrix, env, secrets | | | jobs.<job_id>.services.<service_id>.env.<env_id> | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets | | | jobs.<job_id>.steps.continue-on-error | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets, steps | hashFiles | | jobs.<job_id>.steps.env | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets, steps | hashFiles | | jobs.<job_id>.steps.if | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, steps | always, cancelled, success, failure, hashFiles | | jobs.<job_id>.steps.name | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets, steps | hashFiles | | jobs.<job_id>.steps.run | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets, steps | hashFiles | | jobs.<job_id>.steps.timeout-minutes | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets, steps | hashFiles | | jobs.<job_id>.steps.with | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets, steps | hashFiles | | jobs.<job_id>.steps.working-directory | github, needs, strategy, matrix, job, runner, env, secrets, steps | hashFiles | | jobs.<job_id>.strategy | github, needs | | | jobs.<job_id>.timeout-minutes | github, needs, strategy, matrix | |

Example: printing context information to the log

You can print the contents of contexts to the log for debugging. The toJSON function is required to pretty-print JSON objects to the log.

name: Context testing
on: push

jobs:
  dump_contexts_to_log:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Dump GitHub context
        id: github_context_step
        run: echo '${{ toJSON(github) }}'
      - name: Dump job context
        run: echo '${{ toJSON(job) }}'
      - name: Dump steps context
        run: echo '${{ toJSON(steps) }}'
      - name: Dump runner context
        run: echo '${{ toJSON(runner) }}'
      - name: Dump strategy context
        run: echo '${{ toJSON(strategy) }}'
      - name: Dump matrix context
        run: echo '${{ toJSON(matrix) }}'

github 上下文

github 上下文包含有关工作流程运行以及触发运行的事件相关信息。 You can also read most of the github context data in environment variables. 有关环境变量的更多信息，请参阅“使用环境变量”。

Example contents of the github context

The following example context is from a workflow run triggered by the push event. The event object in this example has been truncated because it is identical to the contents of the push webhook payload.

{
  "token": "***",
  "job": "dump_contexts_to_log",
  "ref": "refs/heads/my_branch",
  "sha": "c27d339ee6075c1f744c5d4b200f7901aad2c369",
  "repository": "octocat/hello-world",
  "repository_owner": "octocat",
  "repositoryUrl": "git://github.com/octocat/hello-world.git",
  "run_id": "1536140711",
  "run_number": "314",
  "retention_days": "90",
  "run_attempt": "1",
  "actor": "octocat",
  "workflow": "Context testing",
  "head_ref": "",
  "base_ref": "",
  "event_name": "push",
  "event": {
    ...
  },
  "server_url": "https://github.com",
  "api_url": "https://api.github.com",
  "graphql_url": "https://api.github.com/graphql",
  "ref_name": "my_branch",
  "ref_protected": false,
  "ref_type": "branch",
  "secret_source": "Actions",
  "workspace": "/home/runner/work/hello-world/hello-world",
  "action": "github_step",
  "event_path": "/home/runner/work/_temp/_github_workflow/event.json",
  "action_repository": "",
  "action_ref": "",
  "path": "/home/runner/work/_temp/_runner_file_commands/add_path_b037e7b5-1c88-48e2-bf78-eaaab5e02602",
  "env": "/home/runner/work/_temp/_runner_file_commands/set_env_b037e7b5-1c88-48e2-bf78-eaaab5e02602"
}

Example usage of the github context

This example workflow uses the github.event_name context to run a job only if the workflow run was triggered by the pull_request event.

name: Run CI
on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  normal_ci:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Run normal CI
        run: ./run-tests

  pull_request_ci:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    if: ${{ github.event_name == 'pull_request' }}
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Run PR CI
        run: ./run-additional-pr-ci

env 上下文

env 上下文包含已在工作流程、作业或步骤中设置的环境变量。 有关在工作流程中设置环境变量的更多信息，请参阅“GitHub Actions 的工作流程语法”。

env 上下文语法允许您在工作流程文件中使用环境变量的值。 You can use the env context in the value of any key in a step except for the id and uses keys. 有关步骤语法的更多信息，请参阅“GitHub Actions 的工作流程语法”。

如果您想要在运行器中使用环境变量的值，请使用运行器操作系统的正常方法来读取环境变量。

Example contents of the env context

The contents of the env context is a mapping of environment variable names to their values. The context's contents can change depending on where it is used in the workflow run.

{
  "first_name": "Mona",
  "super_duper_var": "totally_awesome"
}

Example usage of the env context

This example workflow shows how the env context can be configured at the workflow, job, and step levels, as well as using the context in steps.

当多个环境变量使用相同的名称定义时，GitHub 会使用最特定的环境变量。 例如，步骤中定义的环境变量在步骤执行时将覆盖名称相同的作业和工作流程变量。 为作业定义的变量在作业执行时将覆盖名称相同的工作流程变量。

name: Hi Mascot
on: push
env:
  mascot: Mona
  super_duper_var: totally_awesome

jobs:
  windows_job:
    runs-on: windows-latest
    steps:
      - run: echo 'Hi ${{ env.mascot }}'  # Hi Mona
      - run: echo 'Hi ${{ env.mascot }}'  # Hi Octocat
        env:
          mascot: Octocat
  linux_job:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    env:
      mascot: Tux
    steps:
      - run: echo 'Hi ${{ env.mascot }}'  # Hi Tux

job 上下文

job 上下文包含当前正在运行的作业相关信息。

Example contents of the job context

This example job context uses a PostgreSQL service container with mapped ports. If there are no containers or service containers used in a job, the job context only contains the status property.

{
  "status": "success",
  "container": {
    "network": "github_network_53269bd575974817b43f4733536b200c"
  },
  "services": {
    "postgres": {
      "id": "60972d9aa486605e66b0dad4abb638dc3d9116f566579e418166eedb8abb9105",
      "ports": {
        "5432": "49153"
      },
      "network": "github_network_53269bd575974817b43f4733536b200c"
    }
  }
}

Example usage of the job context

This example workflow configures a PostgreSQL service container, and automatically maps port 5432 in the service container to a randomly chosen available port on the host. The job context is used to access the number of the port that was assigned on the host.

name: PostgreSQL Service Example
on: push
jobs:
  postgres-job:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    services:
      postgres:
        image: postgres
        env:
          POSTGRES_PASSWORD: postgres
        options: --health-cmd pg_isready --health-interval 10s --health-timeout 5s --health-retries 5
        ports:
          # Maps TCP port 5432 in the service container to a randomly chosen available port on the host.
          - 5432

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - run: pg_isready -h localhost -p ${{ job.services.postgres.ports[5432] }}
      - run: ./run-tests

steps 上下文

The steps context contains information about the steps in the current job that have an id specified and have already run.

Example contents of the steps context

This example steps context shows two previous steps that had an id specified. The first step had the id named checkout, the second generate_number. The generate_number step had an output named random_number.

{
  "checkout": {
    "outputs": {},
    "outcome": "success",
    "conclusion": "success"
  },
  "generate_number": {
    "outputs": {
      "random_number": "1"
    },
    "outcome": "success",
    "conclusion": "success"
  }
}

Example usage of the steps context

This example workflow generates a random number as an output in one step, and a later step uses the steps context to read the value of that output.

name: Generate random failure
on: push
jobs:
  randomly-failing-job:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - id: checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Generate 0 or 1
        id: generate_number
        run:  echo "::set-output name=random_number::$(($RANDOM % 2))"
      - name: Pass or fail
        run: |
          if [[ ${{ steps.generate_number.outputs.random_number }} == 0 ]]; then exit 0; else exit 1; fi

runner 上下文

runner 上下文包含正在执行当前作业的运行器相关信息。

Example contents of the runner context

The following example context is from a Linux GitHub-hosted runner.

{
  "os": "Linux",
  "arch": "X64",
  "name": "GitHub Actions 2",
  "tool_cache": "/opt/hostedtoolcache",
  "temp": "/home/runner/work/_temp"
}

Example usage of the runner context

This example workflow uses the runner context to set the path to the temporary directory to write logs, and if the workflow fails, it uploads those logs as artifact.

name: Build
on: push

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Build with logs
        run: |
          mkdir ${{ runner.temp }}/build_logs
          ./build.sh --log-path ${{ runner.temp }}/build_logs
      - name: Upload logs on fail
        if: ${{ failure() }}
        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v2
        with:
          name: Build failure logs
          path: ${{ runner.temp }}/build_logs

secrets context

The secrets context contains the names and values of secrets that are available to a workflow run. The secrets context is not available for composite actions. For more information about secrets, see "Encrypted secrets."

GITHUB_TOKEN is a secret that is automatically created for every workflow run, and is always included in the secrets context. For more information, see "Automatic token authentication."

Example contents of the secrets context

The following example contents of the secrets context shows the automatic GITHUB_TOKEN, as well as two other secrets available to the workflow run.

{
  "github_token": "***",
  "NPM_TOKEN": "***",
  "SUPERSECRET": "***"
}

Example usage of the secrets context

此示例工作流程使用贴� �器操作，需要 GITHUB_TOKEN 作为 repo-token 输入参数的值：

name: Pull request labeler
on: [ pull_request_target ]

jobs:
  triage:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/labeler@v2
        with:
          repo-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

strategy context

For workflows with a build matrix, the strategy context contains information about the matrix execution strategy for the current job.

Example contents of the strategy context

The following example contents of the strategy context is from a build matrix with four jobs, and is taken from the final job. Note the difference between the zero-based job-index number, and job-total which is not zero-based.

{
  "fail-fast": true,
  "job-index": 3,
  "job-total": 4,
  "max-parallel": 4
}

Example usage of the strategy context

This example workflow uses the strategy.job-index property to set a unique name for a log file for each job in a build matrix.

name: Test matrix
on: push

jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    strategy:
      matrix:
        test-group: [1, 2]
        node: [14, 16]
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - run: npm test > test-job-${{ strategy.job-index }}.txt
      - name: Upload logs
        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v2
        with:
          name: Build log for job ${{ strategy.job-index }}
          path: test-job-${{ strategy.job-index }}.txt

matrix context

For workflows with a build matrix, the matrix context contains the matrix properties defined in the workflow file that apply to the current job. For example, if you configure a build matrix with the os and node keys, the matrix context object includes the os and node properties with the values that are being used for the current job.

There are no standard properties in the matrix context, only those which are defined in the workflow file.

Example contents of the matrix context

The following example contents of the matrix context is from a job in a build matrix that has the os and node matrix properties defined in the workflow. The job is executing the matrix combination of an ubuntu-latest OS and Node.js version 16.

{
  "os": "ubuntu-latest",
  "node": 16
}

Example usage of the matrix context

This example workflow creates a build matrix with os and node keys. It uses the matrix.os property to set the runner type for each job, and uses the matrix.node property to set the Node.js version for each job.

name: Test matrix
on: push

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
    strategy:
      matrix:
        os: [ubuntu-latest, windows-latest]
        node: [14, 16]
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v2
        with:
          node-version: ${{ matrix.node }}
      - name: Install dependencies
        run: npm ci
      - name: Run tests
        run: npm test

needs 上下文

needs 上下文包含定义为当前作业依赖项的所有作业的输出。 For more information on defining job dependencies, see "Workflow syntax for GitHub Actions."

Example contents of the needs context

The following example contents of the needs context shows information for two jobs that the current job depends on.

{
  "build": {
    "result": "success",
    "outputs": {
      "build_id": "ABC123"
    }
  },
  "deploy": {
    "result": "failure",
    "outputs": {}
  }
}

Example usage of the needs context

This example workflow has three jobs: a build job that does a build, a deploy job that requires the build job, and a debug job that requires both the build and deploy jobs and runs only if there is a failure in the workflow. The deploy job also uses the needs context to access an output from the build job.

name: Build and deploy
on: push

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    outputs:
      build_id: ${{ steps.build_step.outputs.build_id }}
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Build
        id: build_step
        run: |
          ./build
          echo "::set-output name=build_id::$BUILD_ID" 
  deploy:
    needs: build
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - run: ./deploy --build ${{ needs.build.outputs.build_id }}
  debug:
    needs: [build, deploy]
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    if: ${{ failure() }}
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - run: ./debug
