⚡️ Why Should You Update?

This is a minor version bump, but it does not add any new user-facing interfaces. Still, I felt like it should not be a patch-release: this update brings significant changes to the action invocation and internal release process.

Previously, each invocation of pypi-publish required building a container image in the invoking CI job. This was inefficient and added about 30 seconds to the publishing jobs at their startup just to build the container.

I wanted to improve this for over three years (#58) and a little over half a year ago @br3ndonland💰 stepped up and offered a very comprehensive solution to the limitation I was hoping to overcome: #230.

Going forward, I'm going to pre-build per-version containers prior to cutting each release. And the action invocations will just pull the image from GitHub Container registry.

Caution

Known quirks:

  • This seems to not work on self-hosted runners without a python executable: #289. The workaround could be installing it prior to running the action.
  • Pinning to commit hashes does not work: #290. Workaround: postpone updating until it's fixed or switch to Git tags for now. Subscribe to that issue to follow the progress. UPD: This was an issue during the first 12 hours post release and it has been addressed upstream by publishing a commit SHA-tagged image for the release on Nov 12, 2024 at 10:27 UTC+1.
  • Calling pypi-publish from another nested repo-local composite action might be breaking file paths: #291. Workaround: postpone updating until it's fixed. Subscribe to that issue to follow the progress.
  • Running within GitHub Enterprise fails on the action repo clone: #292. Workaround: postpone updating until it's fixed. Subscribe to that issue to follow the progress.
