Rspec::Github

RSpec formatter compatible with GitHub Action's annotations. It supports multiline errors and will set pending specs as warnings:

Installation

Add the gem to your application's Gemfile test group:

group :test do
  gem 'rspec-github', require: false
end

And then of course install the gem by executing:

bundle install

Usage

You can specify the formatter with a command line argument:

rspec --format RSpec::Github::Formatter

And to always run it with this formatter, you can set it in the .rspec file:

# other configuration
--format RSpec::Github::Formatter

Note that you can select multiple formatters so that you can also see other output:

rspec --format RSpec::Github::Formatter --format progress
rspec --format RSpec::Github::Formatter --format documentation

If you want to disable annotations for pending specs you can do that by adding --tag ~skip to your command:

rspec --format RSpec::Github::Formatter --tag ~skip

Development

After checking out the repo, run bundle install to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. Publishing a new version is handled by the publish workflow. This workflow publishes a GitHub release to rubygems with the version defined in the release.
