GitHub Actions is an automation service from GitHub. Its notable advantages are seamless GitHub integration and better OS support -- Ubuntu, macOS and Windows.

It's still in limited public beta and the API is likely to change. We're working on to improve its experience with Roswell, but please remember it is still quite experimental.

Add a workflow YAML file at .github/workflows/ci.yml something like this:

name: CI

on: [push]

jobs:
  test:
    name: ${{ matrix.lisp }} on ${{ matrix.os }}
    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
    strategy:
      matrix:
        lisp: [sbcl-bin]
        os: [ubuntu-latest, macOS-latest]

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v1
      - name: Install Roswell
        env:
          LISP: ${{ matrix.lisp }}
        run: |
          curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/roswell/roswell/master/scripts/install-for-ci.sh | sh
      - name: Install Rove
        run: ros install rove
      - name: Run tests
        run: |
          PATH="~/.roswell/bin:$PATH"
          rove qlot.asd

• The latest install-for-ci.sh is required until 158bdeb6 will have been released.
• [Windows] ROSWELL_INSTALL_DIR has to be set /c/roswell on Windows
  • Because /usr/local/bin is not in PATH.
  • /usr/bin is in PATH, but its actual directory path is under C:/Program Files/ and Roswell can't be executed when its pathname containing spaces.
  • Roswell exe file will be installed at /c/roswell/bin/ros.
• [Windows] Roswell scripts can't be executed with cmd.exe
  • Execute them through ros command like C:\roswell\bin\ros %userprofile%\.roswell\bin\rove
  • Use bash by setting jobs.<job-id>.steps.shell to bash.
• [Windows] ASDF configuration is not set
  • Set the source registry by yourself like /c/roswell/bin/ros -S . -s rove -e ...
