Berk D. Demir b9260615df Add version-resolver input
Tool cache can be stale in GitHub and self-hosted runners. If supplied
`go-version` is a semver range--instead of an explicit version--it will
be tried through the version inventory in cache, first. Even though
the GitHub local copy or origin distribution may have newer versions
matching the passed range, as long as the cache can satisfy the range,
the latest version from cache will be used.

Introduce an optional input, `version-resolver`. If defined, it tries to
resolve the version spec against either GitHub local copy or Go's
canonical source of version manifest.
If the value of `version-resolver` is:
  - "manifest": the manifest file under @actions/go-version get used.
  - "dist": the manifest at https://golang.org/dl/?mode=json&include=all
  gets used.  It can take values

Example:
--------
- Latest Go Version: 1.15.2
- tool-cache has go1.15 (1.15.0), latest.

build.yml:
```
[...]
  - uses: actions/setup-go@v2
    with:
      go-version: '>=1.5 <2'
[...]
```

Although the intention of the user might be to get latest
version between "oldest Go 1.15.0, newest--not inclusive--Go 2.0", the
cache will match this range with Go 1.15.0.

build.yml (v2):
```
[...]
  - uses: actions/setup-go@v2
    with:
      go-version: '>=1.5 <2'
      version-resolver: 'manifest'
[...]
```

With supplied version resolver, the semver range will be checked against
the local GitHub version manifest from @actions/go-versions[1], and
match 1.15.2. Cache will be queried with the resolved version, instead
of the range. When the cache gets updated globally, next runs will use
the tool from the cache, instead of downloading locally or in case of
resolver 'dist', directly from Google.

setup-go

GitHub Actions status

versions status

This action sets up a go environment for use in actions by:

  • optionally downloading and caching a version of Go by version and adding to PATH
  • registering problem matchers for error output

V2

The V2 offers:

  • Adds GOBIN to the PATH
  • Proxy Support
  • stable input
  • Bug Fixes (including issues around version matching and semver)

It will first check the local cache for a version match. If version is not found locally, It will pull it from main branch of go-versions repository and on miss or failure, it will fall back to the previous behavior of download directly from go dist.

Matching by semver spec:

steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-go@v2
  with:
    go-version: '^1.13.1' # The Go version to download (if necessary) and use.
- run: go version

Matching an unstable pre-release:

steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-go@v2
  with:
    stable: 'false'
    go-version: '1.14.0-rc1' # The Go version to download (if necessary) and use.
- run: go version

Usage

See action.yml

Basic:

steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@master
- uses: actions/setup-go@v1
  with:
    go-version: '1.9.3' # The Go version to download (if necessary) and use.
- run: go run hello.go

Matrix Testing:

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-16.04
    strategy:
      matrix:
        go: [ '1.14', '1.13' ]
    name: Go ${{ matrix.go }} sample
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Setup go
        uses: actions/setup-go@v1
        with:
          go-version: ${{ matrix.go }}
      - run: go run hello.go
