🧩 Notes

This action is built on top of the dotenv library. When starting the action, the file is read from the target folder in the path property and using the mode specified in mode.

The name of the .env file depends on the startup mode. If you do not specify the launch mode, the .env file will be loaded. If you need to load a .env file for a specific mode, you should specify the mode property.

Thus, specifying mode: test will read the .env.test file. mode: development will read .env.development and so on.

After reading and parsing the variables from the .env file, it writes them to GITHUB_ENV.
