Get Workflow Origin action

Context and motivation

Get Workflow Origin is an action that provides information about the pull requests that triggered the workflow for the pull_request and pull_request_review events or for the workflow_run event that is triggered by one of those events.

Often in those events you want to get more information about the source run than the one provided directly via GitHub context.

For example, you would like to know what is the merge commit generated by pull request in case the workflow is triggered by a pull request, or labels associated with the Pull Request.

This action provides outputs that give that information. You should add this action as first one in your workflow and then you will be able to use those outputs using ‘needs’ dependency.

The sourceRunId input should not be specified in case of the pull_request event, but it should be set to ${{ github.event.workflow_run.id }} in case of the workflow_run event.

Development environment

It is highly recommended tu use pre commit. The pre-commits installed via pre-commit tool handle automatically linting (including automated fixes) as well as building and packaging Javascript index.js from the main.ts Typescript code, so you do not have to run it yourself.
