Setup JFrog CLI

This GitHub Action downloads, installs and configures JFrog CLI, so that it can be used as part of the workflow.

In addition, the Action includes the following features, when using JFrog CLI to work with Artifactory.

• The connection details of the JFrog platform used by JFrog CLI can be stored as secrets. Read more about it here.
• There's no need to add the build name and build number options and arguments to commands which accept them. All build related operations will be automatically recorded with the Workflow Name as build name and Run Number as build number.

Usage

General

- uses: jfrog/setup-jfrog-cli@v2
- run: jf --version

Set Up a FREE JFrog Environment in the Cloud

Need a FREE JFrog environment in the cloud to use with this GitHub Action? Just run one of the following commands in your terminal. The commands will do the following:

1. Install JFrog CLI on your machine.
2. Create a FREE JFrog environment in the cloud for you.

MacOS and Linux using cUrl

curl -fL https://getcli.jfrog.io?setup | sh

Windows using PowerShell

powershell "Start-Process -Wait -Verb RunAs powershell '-NoProfile iwr https://releases.jfrog.io/artifactory/jfrog-cli/v2-jf/[RELEASE]/jfrog-cli-windows-amd64/jf.exe -OutFile $env:SYSTEMROOT\system32\jf.exe'" ; jf setup

Storing JFrog connection details as secrets

General

The connection details of the JFrog platform used by JFrog CLI can be stored as secrets.

Creating the configuration on your local machine

1. Make sure JFrog CLI is installed on your local machine by running jf -v.
2. Configure the details of the JFrog platform by running jf c add.
3. Export the details of the JFrog platform you configured, using the server ID you chose. Do this by running jf c export <SERVER ID>.
4. Copy the generated token to the clipboard and save it as a secret on GitHub.

Using the secret in the workflow

To use the saved JFrog platform configuration in the workflow, all you need to do it to expose the secret to the workflow. The secret should be exposed as an environment variable with the JF_ENV_ prefix. Here's how you do this:

- uses: jfrog/setup-jfrog-cli@v2
  env:
    JF_ENV_1: ${{ secrets.JF_SECRET_ENV_1 }}
- run: |
    # Ping the server
    jf rt ping

As you can see in the example above, we created a secret named JF_SECRET_ENV_1 and we exposed it to the workflow as the JF_ENV_1 environment variable. That's it - the ping command will now ping the configured Artifactory server.

If you have multiple JFrog platform configurations as secrets, you can use all of the in the workflow as follows:

- uses: jfrog/setup-jfrog-cli@v2
  env:
    JF_ENV_1: ${{ secrets.JF_SECRET_ENV_1 }}
    JF_ENV_2: ${{ secrets.JF_SECRET_ENV_2 }}
- run: |
    # Set the JFrog configuration to use by providing the server ID (configured by the 'jf c add' command).
    jf c use local-1
    # Ping local-1 Artifactory server
    jf rt ping
    # Now use the second sever configuration exposed to the Action.
    jf c use local-2
    # Ping local-2 Xray server
    jf xr ping

Important: When exposing more than one JFrog configuration to the Action, you should always add the jf c use command to specify the server to use.

Setting the build name and build number when publishing build-info to Artifactory

The Action automatically sets the following environment variables: JFROG_CLI_BUILD_NAME and JFROG_CLI_BUILD_NUMBER with the workflow name and run number respectively. You therefore don't need to specify the build name and build number on any of the build related JFrog CLI commands.

In the following example, all downloaded files are registered as dependencies of the build and all uploaded files are registered as the build artifacts.

- run: |
    jf rt dl artifacts/
    jf rt u aether artifacts/
    jf rt bp

Setting JFrog CLI version

By default the JFrog CLI version set in action.yml is used. To set a specific version, add the version input as follows:

- uses: jfrog/setup-jfrog-cli@v2
  with:
    version: X.Y.Z

It is also possible to set the latest JFrog CLI version by adding the version input as follows:

- uses: jfrog/setup-jfrog-cli@v2
  with:
    version: latest

Important: Only JFrog CLI versions 1.29.0 or above are supported.
