We now have an official Github Action: setup-roc :roc:
It allows you to set up Roc in your GitHub CI workflow with 3 lines of code. It also performs hash verification of the (non-nightly) releases. If an attacker is ever able to modify a Roc release .tar.gz, setup-roc will fail with an informative error message.

Nice! Now I can archive my old action and migrate over :)

👍🏼 now we just need a typed roc gh action platform giving access to the respective APIs :sweat_smile:

I'm glad I didn't submit my action to the GitHub actions marketplace because I believe there is no namespacing, so I would've permanently had the setup-roc name there :sweat_smile:

Oh, haha, I did not realize they have the same name. It was Claude's top recommendation :p

It's the way all the official installer actions are named so it makes sense to name it that :) https://github.com/orgs/actions/repositories?type=source&q=setup-
