### inputs

Following inputs can be used as `step.with` keys
2019-09-01 04:23:41 +08:00
| Name | Type | Description |
|----------------------|---------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `repo` | String | GitHub repository where assets will be deployed (default current) |
| `target_branch` | String | Git branch where assets will be deployed (default `gh-pages`) |

2019-11-16 22:04:57 +08:00
| `committer_name` | String | Commit author's name (default [GITHUB_ACTOR](https://help.github.com/en/github/automating-your-workflow-with-github-actions/using-environment-variables#default-environment-variables) or `github-actions`) |

### environment variables
2019-09-01 13:01:38 +08:00
Following environment variables can be used as `step.env` keys
2019-09-01 04:23:41 +08:00
| Name | Description |
|----------------|---------------------------------------|
| `GITHUB_TOKEN` | GITHUB_TOKEN as provided by `secrets` |
| `GITHUB_PAT` | [Personal Access Token](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line/) (see [Limitation section](#warning-limitation) below)|
2019-09-01 13:01:38 +08:00
## :warning: Limitation
2019-11-11 13:57:13 +08:00
Currently, `GITHUB_TOKEN` [does not suffice to trigger a page build](https://github.community/t5/GitHub-Actions/Github-action-not-triggering-gh-pages-upon-push/m-p/26869) on a **public repository** (propagate content to the GitHub content-delivery network). You must therefore create a custom [Personal Access Token](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line/) and use it through the `GITHUB_PAT` environment variable:
2019-09-01 13:01:38 +08:00
```yaml
- name: Deploy
if: success()
2019-10-11 07:51:17 +08:00
uses: crazy-max/ghaction-github-pages@v1
2019-09-01 13:01:38 +08:00
with:
target_branch: gh-pages
build_dir: public
env:
GITHUB_PAT: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_PAT }}
```
