Sample workflow scripts for GitHub Actions


(BMC.DB2.SPE2407)

The sample pipelines are located in AMI DevOps Sample Folder in the GitHub Actions directory, which is the directory to which the BMC-AMI-DevOps-Version-13.1.00-for-Db2-UC.zip file is downloaded and extracted. For example:
C:\Users\userName\Downloads\BMC-AMI-DevOps-Version-13.1.00-for-Db2-UC\BMC AMI DevOps Version 13.1.00 for Db2 - UC\GitHub Actions\AMI DevOps Sample Folder

Sample workflow script for File Transmission

The following figure represents a sample workflow script for File Transmission:

(BMC.DB2.SPE2407)

###
### Workflow_File_Transmission_Sample.yml (for GitHub Actions)
###
# The sample workflow performs Authentication + File Transmission steps using application defined command step.
# The sample workflow script is defined to use various items like below:
#  a) References to variables added through GitHub Actions secrets and variables.
#  b) Use of Linux based sed command to replace input as variable name by variable definition from GitHub Actions secrets and variables.
#  c) Use of configuration file (Config_File_Transmission.yml), that is maintained in default root folder.
#     Example of properties of authentication step is taken from Config_File_Transmission.yml file:
#            step authentication Config_File_Transmission.yml
#     Note: If workflow executes with default configuration file name config.yml, that is maintained in root folder, then file name is not required in step command.
#     Example of properties of authentication step is taken from default file name config.yml maintained in root folder:
#            step authentication
