Debugging GitHub actions locally

Debugging main

1. Install act https://github.com/nektos/act

2. Add - run: sleep 1h line to main.yml. This will prevent docker container from exiting

3. Execute act pull_request

4. In a separate terminal attach to a running container

   docker exec -it act-Main-Workflow-build bash

5. Inside running container update $PATH env to access node and yarn

   export PATH="$PATH:/opt/hostedtoolcache/node/16.15.0/x64/bin/"
   
   node -v
   v16.15.0

6. To kill a running container:

   docker kill act-Main-Workflow-build

Debugging updateDependency

1. Create test event file test.json

   {
     "action": "workflow_dispatch",
     "inputs": {
       "synthetix_version": "2.71.0",
       "monorepo_version": ""
     }
   }

2. Add - run: sleep 1h line to updateDependency.yml (where appropriate). This will prevent docker container from exiting

3. Run act

   act workflow_dispatch --eventpath test.json

4. In a separate terminal attach to a running container

   docker exec -it act-Publish-Library-Update-synthetix-in-contracts-interface bash

5. Inside running container update $PATH env to access node and npm

   export PATH="$PATH:/opt/hostedtoolcache/node/16.15.0/x64/bin/"
   
   node -v
   v16.15.0

6. To kill a running container:

   docker kill act-Publish-Library-Update-synthetix-in-contracts-interface
