I do NOT recommend to use this action now, because some updating will not work.

  push:
    branches: ['main']
    paths:
      - '.github/workflows/dprint-update-plugin.yml'
  schedule:
    # Run at 17:00 UTC every Monday
    - cron: '0 17 * * 1'
  # Allows you to run this workflow manually from the Actions tab
  workflow_dispatch:

permissions:
  contents: write
  pull-requests: write

# Allow one concurrent dprint updater
concurrency:
  group: 'update-dprint'
  cancel-in-progress: true

jobs:
  update:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    timeout-minutes: 15
    steps:
      - id: update-dprint-plugins
        uses: kachick/[email protected]
        with:
          base-branch: 'main'
          dprint-version: '0.40.1'

      # Enable `Allow auto-merge` in your repository settings if you need following steps
      - name: Merge sent PR
        # Checking `dprint fmt` did not make any diff even after updating plugins
        if: ${{ steps.update-dprint-plugins.outputs.pr_url != '' && steps.update-dprint-plugins.outputs.fmt == 'false' }}
        run: gh pr merge --auto --squash --delete-branch "${{ steps.update-dprint-plugins.outputs.pr_url }}"
        env:
          # Need to be replaced to your PAT if need to approve or need to trigger other actions
          GITHUB_TOKEN: '${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}'

Preparation

Need to add following permissions if you use GITHUB_TOKEN

permissions:
  contents: write
  pull-requests: write

Enable the following options in your repository settings

• Enable Allow GitHub Actions to create and approve pull requests
• Enable Allow auto-merge if you need auto merging

Input Parameters

All options should be specified with string. So true/false should be 'true'/'false'

name	default	options	description
base-branch	(null)	e.g 'main'	The branch into which you want updating PR merged
github-token	${{ github.token }}	e.g '${{ secrets.YOUR_PAT }}'	The token will be used to create PR
dprint-version	(null)	e.g '0.40.1'	Specific dprint version to use. Should be specified
config-path	'dprint.json'	e.g 'dprint-ci.json'	Specific dprint config to use
fmt	false	true/false	Run fmt and outputs the result in outputs.fmt if enabled. It may fail from some reasons

Outputs

name	patterns	description
pr_url	e.g. 'https://github.com/owner/repos/pull/42'	Sent PR URL
fmt	true/false	Return true if diff was made in dprint fmt after updating plugins. Can be used only in fmt in inputs is enabled

Motivation

• A solution with renovatebot is here, but it may not update some plugins like dprint-plugin-prettier
