  • Create Multiple GitHub Actions in a Single Repository
    1 project | dev.to | 16 Sep 2024
    You can create and package multiple GitHub Actions in a single repository that are written using TypeScript/JavaScript, allowing each action to run separately. Below is how to accomplish this using vercel/ncc, which allows compiling modules into a single file with its dependencies eliminating the need to include the node_modules folder in your repository:

    During my search for deploying Lambdas via GitHub actions, I came across a tutorial that utilized ncc for converting TypeScript and bundling. While ncc is effective, I discovered esbuild, which proved to be significantly faster and perfectly suited to my requirements.

    This appears to be caused by lazy loading of image layer data, particularly during container initialization, and latency introduced by the read operations. In general, you want to access as few files and as little data as possible during the initialization of your functions. For example, we've seen improvement when using ncc to bundle Node.js applications.
  • Tools of the Trade: Dyte CLI

    What we do however, is bundle all these dependencies, and our own code into a single JS file using the nifty ncc tool (thanks Vercel!)

    The most unclear and confusing part is packing the code using ncc. The necessity of this step is caused by GitHub’s approach to running your Action.

    I filed an issue for the ncc bundler regarding a similar behavior

    This may be slightly tangential but I recently discovered ncc[1] from vercel which can take a single node project and compile it and all dependencies to a single file.

    As an added benefit it also collapses all contained dependencies license files into a single licenses.txt file too!

    The current process of building a package locally is by running through a gulp task, using ttypescript to compile the TS and @vercel/ncc to build the binary:
