hlint-run

GitHub Action: Run hlint

See also haskell-actions/hlint-setup, which will install (and cache) HLint.

Executes hlint and presents the output using actions/toolkit/commands/problem matcher, so hints are displayed as GitHub annotations.

Inputs

• fail-on (optional, default: never): When to mark the check as failed. One of: never, status, warning, suggestion, or error.
• path (required): The single file or directory name, or formatted JSON array containing multiple. Examples:
  • - path: src/
  • - path: '["src/", "test/"]'
  • - path: ${{ toJSON(steps.whatever.changed_dirs) }} (see: docs on toJSON)
• hlint-bin (optional): The hlint binary path, if not already in PATH.

Outputs

The main purpose of this action currently is just to print out GitHub annotations, but it still provides an output.

• ideas: The generated HLint ideas (warnings, errors, etc.) serialized to JSON.
