Forked from KeisukeYamashita/setup-release.

A GitHub Action that downloads a release and provision for later job usage. You don't need to download assets and extract, add system pathes, this action will do it for you with very easy configurations.

Note: You cannot use this action if the asset name is not included in the asset name because the search is based on the three inputs(arch, archive and platform) in the asset.name field.

Install Path

The extracted assets will be stores in /tmp/${UUID} by default. It is recommented to use this if you have multiple stages that uses this action. But, if you want to configure it, you can use installPath.
