To be precise, I am confused about where to provide the personal access token name and where to put the secret token.

Hello @yash982000,

Sorry for the late reply.

You have to set up the secret token in the settings of your repository. Please go through this documentation from GitHub: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/encrypted-secrets

Make sure that the secret name is TOKEN like the screenshot below.

Let us know if that helps.

Ok.

Then where do I put the personal access token.

And ,also is something to be put in value?

[Teamtigers256]

@yash982000 TOKEN should be the name and your personal access token should be the value like the screenshot.

@yash982000 TOKEN should be the name and your personal access token should be the value like the screenshot.

I tried this but the pull request for minification isn't working yet.

I want to setup a workflow such as on commit it checks for minification.

name: minisauras

on: [push]

jobs:
  read:
    runs-on: ubuntu-18.04

    steps:
    - name: Checkout
      uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - name: minisauras
      uses: TeamTigers/minisauras@v2.0.0
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.TOKEN }}
      id: dir
      with:
        directory: './' ## minify all files from root directory

What should I write inside "ON" such that it triggers while I commit on that default branch?

Much help appreciated.

Hey @yash982000,

Whenever you merge other branches to your base branch or push directly any changes to your base branch then the action will be able to minify only when you give both read and write access for your personal access token. It will send a pull request to your repository.

Can you please check if your token has both read and write permission?

[Teamtigers256]

You may also check the example repository which is using minisauras: https://github.com/TeamTigers/minisauras-example

[yash982000]

permissions:
  contents: read
  pull-requests: write

This should do the work right?

Also, I have checked this settings.

[Teamtigers256]

Hello @yash982000,

Yes, this should work.
Can you please check if there is an error in the actions log from your action running history?

[yash982000]

Heyy @Teamtigers256

No error on logs.

All are showing success. But no pull request and changes.

[yash982000]

Also, I wasted some a lot of scheduled actions minutes
But no minification done.

Can you please help?

Yes, this should work.

Hello @Teamtigers256

Any updates on this?

I am unable to troubleshoot what is the problem as it is never shown.

Although now, when a new code is pushed to the branch, it shows minisauras run successfully.
So, is there an issue with the triggering of the pull requests?

Here is the screenshot of how the workflow is triggered one pushed some code:-
