A GitHub Action to install Scala CLI.

• run it on any platform: Linux, MacOS, Windows
• install any JVM you need
• setup the build tool of your choice: sbt, mill, seed, etc.
• install other common Scala CLI tools: Ammonite, Bloop, giter8, etc.

• scala-cli-version (optional): scala-cli version to install
  • "latest" to install the latest version.
• jvm (optional): JVM to install
  • one of the options from cs java --available.
  • if left empty either the existing JVM will be used or Coursier will install its default JVM.
• apps (optional): Scala apps to install (sbtn by default)
  • space separated list of app names (from the main channel)
• version (optional): Coursier version to install
  • This is defaulted to the latest stable release of Coursier
• power (optional): Value for the --power launcher option
  • Necessary for using feature of scala-cli that require the --power option, like publishing.
  • Defaults to false

• JAVA_HOME: path to the JVM to use
• COURSIER_BIN_DIR: (optional) path to the directory where Coursier will install app binaries
  • defaults to $HOME/cs/bin
  • shouldn't have to be tampered with for vanilla GitHub action runners
  • make sure the directory is reachable for self-hosted runners
  • in case of issues, you can set it to something like

    env:
      COURSIER_BIN_DIR: ${{ github.workspace }}/cs/bin

  steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - uses: VirtusLab/scala-cli-setup@main
      with:
        jvm: adopt:11
        apps: sbtn bloop ammonite

• cs-version: version of the installed Coursier (should be the latest available)
• scala-cli-version: version of the installed Scala CLI (should be the latest available)

This action should work well with the official Coursier cache-action. For example:

  steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - uses: coursier/cache-action@v6
    - uses: VirtusLab/scala-cli-setup@main
