# The nightly: every day at 06:00 UTC (or by hand), build `main` as # `X.Y.Z-nightly.YYYYMMDD.` — X.Y.Z being the version the tree declares # with its prerelease part dropped — and publish it as the rolling `nightly` # prerelease, replacing yesterday's. The app's Nightly channel reads # `releases/download/nightly/latest.json`; a different build is always an # update there (updater.rs), so the number does not need to climb. # # Same secrets and optional publish target as release.yml. name: nightly on: schedule: - cron: "0 6 * * *" workflow_dispatch: permissions: contents: write jobs: windows: runs-on: windows-latest steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v4 with: ref: main - uses: actions/setup-node@v4 with: node-version: 22 cache: npm - uses: dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable - uses: Swatinem/rust-cache@v2 with: workspaces: "./src-tauri -> ../target" - run: npm ci - name: Stamp the nightly version id: stamp shell: bash run: | base=$(node -p "require('./package.json').version.split('-')[0]") ver="$base-nightly.$(date -u +%Y%m%d).$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)" echo "version=$ver" >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT" node -e ' const fs = require("fs"); const v = process.argv[1]; for (const f of ["package.json", "package-lock.json"]) { const j = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(f, "utf8")); j.version = v; if (j.packages && j.packages[""]) j.packages[""].version = v; fs.writeFileSync(f, JSON.stringify(j, null, 2) + "\n"); } const c = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync("src-tauri/tauri.conf.json", "utf8")); c.version = v; fs.writeFileSync("src-tauri/tauri.conf.json", JSON.stringify(c, null, 2) + "\n"); ' "$ver" sed -i "0,/^version = \"[^\"]*\"/s//version = \"$ver\"/" Cargo.toml echo "nightly $ver" - name: Replace yesterday's nightly shell: bash env: GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.RELEASES_TOKEN || secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} TARGET: ${{ vars.RELEASES_OWNER || github.repository_owner }}/${{ vars.RELEASES_REPO || github.event.repository.name }} run: gh release delete nightly --repo "$TARGET" --cleanup-tag --yes || true - name: Build, sign and publish uses: tauri-apps/tauri-action@v0 env: GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.RELEASES_TOKEN || secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY: ${{ secrets.TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY }} TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD }} with: owner: ${{ vars.RELEASES_OWNER || github.repository_owner }} repo: ${{ vars.RELEASES_REPO || github.event.repository.name }} tagName: nightly releaseName: "Nightly ${{ steps.stamp.outputs.version }}" releaseBody: "Built from main at ${{ github.sha }}.
