Dominik Honnef ec55db560e Don't require relative paths to start with ./ or ../
Errors reported by Go, even when containing relative paths, do not
always begin with ./ or ../ – for example:

	$ go build ./...
	# honnef.co/go/tools/lintcmd
	lintcmd/format.go:28:8: syntax error: cannot use path := filepath.Clean(pos.Filename) as value

We could require either ./, ../ or at least one path separator and
still match Go's output. However, commonly used linters (such as
Staticcheck and golint) never use ./ for relative paths. Their output
stopped being matched when we moved from v1 to v2. I believe that
being able to match the output of linters is worth relaxing the
pattern for.

This change slightly relaxes the stricter pattern that was introduced
as part of v2 to address #46. However, the pattern is still stricter
than it was in v1 and as strict as it can be for most users.

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
