Bucklescript Build in Github actions

bsb
#1

Hi all!

Has anyone had any success running a Bucklescript build in Github actions?

I have a ReasonReact app built with Parcel and Yarn. I’m running into some errors in the workflow. My Github workflow is based on Ubuntu Latest.

The build error can be seen here: https://github.com/RicheyRyan/gear-calculator/runs/458971445?check_suite_focus=true

Basically, it bs-platform tries to build ninja and fails because it can’t find python.

I have tried:

  • Setting up a python environment in the workflow
  • Including ninja directly in the workflow

If anyone has any pointers or even just other CI code that I could refer to, I’d be grateful!

Thanks,
Richey

Yeah I’ve done this, didn’t have any issues. Here’s my workflow file (yarn build is the bs build step):

Thanks @benadamstyles, using setup-node rather than the yarn action was the key! Thanks for the tip!
