pontil Changelog

1.0.1 / 2026-05-07

• Documentation and repo updates. The symlinks to the supporting tools have been removed from the directory and added as sidebar links to the root file in the generated documentation.

• The Writing a GitHub Action guide has been updated to encourage the use of pontil_build in favour of direct esgleam usage.

• Added the missing wrapper for core.set_exit_code.

1.0.0 / 2026-04-22

This is the first major release of pontil, now covering all functions in actions/core, including the OIDC function, get_id_token.

There are breaking changes to this release from the preview release:

• BREAKING: pontil has been split into four different packages, pontil (this package), pontil_core (pontil/core), pontil_platform (pontil/platform), and pontil_summary (pontil/summary). If you are just building GitHub Actions with the JavaScript target, pontil and pontil/summary are all you need.

  • BREAKING: pontil no longer supports the Erlang target. There is no clean way to support both Erlang and JavaScript runtimes with a single package when the different async models become involved. If there is interest in an Erlang variant, it is possible to create a pontil_erlang package based on pontil_core.

  • BREAKING: pontil/platform is now its own package, pontil_platform. If platform-dependent behaviours are required, remember to gleam add pontil_platform@1 and import pontil/platform.

  • BREAKING: pontil/summary is now its own package, pontil_summary. If you are creating an action summary, just gleam add pontil_summary@1 and import pontil/summary.

• Implemented pontil.get_id_token. Portions of actions/http-client have been implemented as pontil-internal wrappers around gleam/http/request and gleam/fetch. These may eventually be hoisted for public use, but not all of the features present work with the implementation of gleam_fetch as of the release date (note that there is a PR in progress that will help).

• pontil.set_secret now returns the secret value so that it can be used in a pipeline or as the last value of the calling function.

• Input functions that take options have changed names and signatures. Instead of _with_options, the suffix is now _opts and it takes a list of InputOptions variants instead of an InputOptions record.

  // old
  get_boolean_input_with_options(message, InputOptions(required: False, trim_whitespace: True))
  get_input_with_options(message, InputOptions(required: True, trim_whitespace: False))
  get_multiline_input_with_options(message, InputOptions(required: True, trim_whitespace: True))
  
  // new
  get_boolean_input_opts(message, [])
  get_input_opts(message, [InputRequired, PreserveInputSpaces])
  get_multiline_input_opts(message, [InputRequired])
  

  This better aligns with the interface for AnnotationProperties.

• Issue logging functions that take properties have changed names from a _with_properties suffix to _annotation suffix.

• pontil.group is synchronous; pontil.group_async has been added for promise-returning callbacks. group_async must be used when calling functions that return a Promise.

• Additional helper functions have been added based on the experience of using pontil in starlist:

  • pontil.register_process_handlers to register handlers to catch unhandled promise rejections and uncaught exceptions in the Node process. pontil.register_default_process_handlers registers pontil.set_failed as the handlers for both.

  • pontil.try_promise lifts synchronous Result functions into Promise(Result) chains.

• Added guides for writing a GitHub Action with Pontil and for understanding the differences between Pontil and the GitHub Actions toolkit.

• Fixed a bug with annotation processing.
