This GitHub Action prints all input values from a workflow_dispatch event to the log. Optionally, it can also print all environment variables. It's a simple and effective tool for debugging or verifying input values and environment settings in your manually triggered workflows.

• Prints all workflow_dispatch inputs to the log
• Optionally prints all environment variables
• Minimal configuration required
• Doesn't require a GitHub token
• Lightweight and fast

To use this action in your workflow, add it as a step in your workflow_dispatch triggered workflow:

name: Print Inputs and Env Vars Example

on:
  workflow_dispatch:
    inputs:
      name:
        description: 'Your name'
        required: true
        type: string
      age:
        description: 'Your age'
        required: false
        type: number

jobs:
  print-inputs-and-env:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Print Workflow Dispatch Inputs and Env Vars
        uses: shayki5/print-workflow-dispatch-inputs@v1
        with:
          print_env_vars: 'true'  # Set to 'true' to print environment variables as well (default: false)

When you manually trigger this workflow and provide values for the inputs, the action will print these input values to the log. If print_env_vars is set to 'true', it will also print all environment variables.

This action reads the event payload from the GITHUB_EVENT_PATH environment variable, which is automatically set by GitHub Actions. It then uses jq to extract and print the input values. If print_env_vars is set to 'true', it also prints all environment variables using the env command.

This action is designed to work with workflow_dispatch events. It will not print inputs for other event types, but can still print environment variables if enabled.
