Deep Dive into Reusable Workflows and Composite Actions
The ability to encapsulate logic and reuse it across different workflows is an extremely useful feature when creating build pipelines. Creating reusable workflows and composite actions allows you to centralize and standardize key or repetitive steps in your development process. It’s akin to filling your toolbox with efficient, reusable components.
Throughout this chapter, we’ll delve into the details of reusable workflows and composite actions. We’ll start by decoding the concepts and understanding their individual use cases and the problems they solve. We’ll then dive into how to create and manage these elements, providing you with practical knowledge that you can apply to your own projects. We’ll explore how to utilize further key features we looked at in the previous chapter to create more complex workflows, which we’ll use throughout this chapter for debugging purposes.
