setup-playdate-sdk

A GitHub action that installs the Playdate SDK.

License Version Build

Usage

Configure a step that adds the idleberg/setup-playdate-sdk action to your workflow. Optionally, you can pass arguments to the action.

- uses: idleberg/[email protected]
  with: 
    sdk_version: '1.11.1' # this can usually be omitted in favour of latest version

💡 Note: For security reasons it's recommended to use the commit hash of the release as version identifier

One use case for this action is to build your game with the Playdate SDK and attach it to a GitHub release.
