Usage

To get the latest stable version of protoc just add this step:

- name: Install Protoc
  uses: arduino/setup-protoc@v3

If you want to pin a major or minor version you can use the .x wildcard:

- name: Install Protoc
  uses: arduino/setup-protoc@v3
  with:
    version: "23.x"

You can also require to include releases marked as pre-release in Github using the include-pre-releases flag (the dafault value for this flag is false)

- name: Install Protoc
  uses: arduino/setup-protoc@v3
  with:
    version: "23.x"
    include-pre-releases: true

To pin the exact version:

- name: Install Protoc
  uses: arduino/setup-protoc@v3
  with:
    version: "23.2"

The action queries the GitHub API to fetch releases data, to avoid rate limiting, pass the default token with the repo-token variable:

- name: Install Protoc
  uses: arduino/setup-protoc@v3
  with:
    repo-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

Enable verbose logging for a pipeline

Additional log events with the prefix ::debug:: can be enabled by setting the secret ACTIONS_STEP_DEBUG to true.

See step-debug-logs for reference.
