This line inside a Github action fails with: It works without a problem locally from the command line. Anything you put as “bash” will not work either. I can’t use the same container as a runner, since its values are defined in some environment variables, so it’s not known at the time of starting the workflow. Alternatively, being able to set some variables (as a matter of fact, they’re contained in an artifact) so that a container runner could be used from the beginning would be nice alternative. |
