  • Installs the downloaded Rhino installer.

What this action does not do

  • This action does not do anything related to licensing Rhino, either with a Core-Hour Billing Token or Rhino Account.
  • This action does not do anything related to automatically running Rhino.
  • This action does not do anything related to automated testing.
  • This action does not allow you to specify a Rhino version.

Example usage

# ...

jobs:
  build:
    - name: Install Rhino
      uses: mcneel/setup-rhino3d@v2
      with:
        email-address: ${{ secrets.EMAIL_ADDRESS }}
        release-version: rc # see below for values
# ...

Inputs

email-address

Required The email of the associated user.

Note

It is recommended that you save this email address as a repository secret. For more information on setting up repository secrets, see this article.

release-version

Optional The release version you wish to use. Values include:

  • latest - The default. If no release-version is specified, this is what is used.
  • rc - Release candidate.
  • wip - The current Rhino wip which is +1 of the major release version. For example, if Rhino 8 is currently the release version, wip will be 9.

A note about the Rhino Token

The workflow using this action should set an env variable with the Rhino Token you create when setting up core-hour billing. Please see this article for instructions on setting up core-hour billing.

This Rhino Token should be stored as a repository secret. For more information on setting up repository secrets, see this article.

Development

After you've cloned the repository to your local machine or codespace, you'll need to perform some initial setup steps before you can develop your action.

Note

You'll need to have a reasonably modern version of Node.js handy. If you are using a version manager like nodenv or nvm, you can run nodenv install in the root of your repository to install the version specified in package.json. Otherwise, 20.x or later should work!

  1. 🛠️ Install the dependencies

    npm install
  2. 🏗️ Package the JavaScript for distribution

    npm run bundle

    [!NOTE]

    At the time of writing, this will not copy script/setup-rhino.ps1 to dist/setup-rhino.ps1. If you change this script, you should move over the changes manually

  3. ✅ Run the tests

    $ npm test
    
    PASS  ./index.test.js
     ✓ calls run when imported (9 ms)
    
    PASS  ./main.test.js
      ✓ sets the input values (84 ms)
      ✓ fails on Linux (17 ms)
      ✓ fails on macOS (22 ms)
      ✓ output script name on Windows (4 ms)
      ✓ runScript returns

Committing Changes and tags

If you have modified any of the js code, do not forget to run npm run bundle prior to committing changes.

Users expect to consume this action via a version number associated with a tag. Do not forget to add a tag to any commit you wish to use or have users be able to use.
