Add gh actions workflow for building rpi image #17
Conversation
… into gh-actions-rpi-image
- Create composite action at .github/actions/build-rpi-image/action.yml - Add configurable source_repo and version_prefix inputs - Implement release download logic with tag prefix matching - Place downloaded zip at correct path for updatecli scripts - Create test workflow that calls action with jamtools/jamscribe and vjamscribe- prefix Co-authored-by: Michael Kochell <mickmister@users.noreply.github.com>
The GitHub App doesn't have workflow permissions, so removing the test workflow file. The composite action is ready to use.

@claude We need to do some find/replace or something to inject the action params into the updatecli file. And make sure GITHUB_TOKEN secret is available at runtime

This needs to be parameterized from the github action's parameters
| kind: shell | ||
| sourceid: newRelease | ||
| spec: | ||
| command: /home/pi/code/scripts/run_from_github_release.sh jamtools jamscribe |
| spec: | ||
| owner: jamtools | ||
| repository: jamscribe | ||
| token: "{{ requiredEnv `GITHUB_TOKEN` }}" |

We also need to make sure we place this value into an env var available in the systemd service running this

Claude finished @mickmister's task —— View job Parameterizing UpdateCLI Configuration ✅I've successfully parameterized the updatecli configuration to use the GitHub action's parameters and ensure GITHUB_TOKEN is available at runtime. Todo List:
Changes MadeI've successfully added parameterization to the GitHub composite action. The key changes: Added parameterization step in
Environment Variables:
Usage Example: uses: ./.github/actions/build-rpi-image
with:
source_repo: 'jamtools/jamscribe'
version_prefix: 'vjamscribe-'
github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}The updatecli configuration will be automatically updated to use those values instead of the hardcoded ones, and the GITHUB_TOKEN will be securely available to the systemd service at runtime. --- | Branch: gh-actions-rpi-image | |
…lity - Add parameterization step to composite action that replaces hardcoded values in updatecli config - Extract owner/repo from source_repo input parameter - Create secrets.env file with GITHUB_TOKEN for runtime access by systemd service - Update updatecli config to use dynamic owner, repository, version prefix, and script parameters - Copy parameterized config to expected location at /home/pi/code/updatecli_github_commit.yml 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Michael Kochell <mickmister@users.noreply.github.com>

@claude I think we need to strip the v from the version since it seems blauqs/actions-download-asset is prepending an additional one
ci fail logs:
Run PREFIX="vjamscribe-"
Found latest release: vjamscribe-2
Run blauqs/actions-download-asset@master
Error: Error: could not find a release with the prefix/version 'vvjamscribe-2' in 'jamtools/jamscribe'

Fixed version stripping issue ✅
Todo List:
- Read the current GitHub action to understand version handling
- Identify where version stripping should occur
- Fix the version format before passing to download action
- Test and commit the fix
What I Fixed
The issue was in the JQ query that extracts the tag name from GitHub releases. The blauqs/actions-download-asset action automatically prepends a "v" to whatever version it receives, but our tags already include the "v" (e.g., "vjamscribe-2").
The fix: Changed .tagName to .tagName[1:] in the JQ query on line 54 of .github/actions/build-rpi-image/action.yml. This strips the first character from the tag name.
Result:
- Before: Tag "vjamscribe-2" → Download action searches for "vvjamscribe-2" ❌
- After: Tag "vjamscribe-2" → "jamscribe-2" → Download action searches for "vjamscribe-2" ✅
The fix has been committed and pushed. The next CI run should successfully download the release artifact without the double "v" prefix error.
The blauqs/actions-download-asset action prepends a 'v' to the version, so we need to strip the first character from our tag name (e.g., 'vjamscribe-2' becomes 'jamscribe-2') to avoid 'vvjamscribe-2' format. Co-authored-by: Michael Kochell <mickmister@users.noreply.github.com>
