Dependency Submission Toolkit

@github/dependency-submission-toolkit is a TypeScript library for creating dependency snapshots and submitting them to the dependency submission API. Snapshots are a set of dependencies grouped by manifest with some related metadata. A manifest can be a physical file or a more abstract representation of a dependency grouping (such processing of program outputs). After submission to the API, the included dependencies appear in the repository's dependency graph.

Installation

npm install @github/dependency-submission-toolkit

Writing Your Own Dependency Submission Action

You may use classes from @github/dependency-submission-toolkit to help in building your own GitHub Action for submitting dependencies to the Dependency Submission API. At a high level, the steps to use the classes are:

Create a PackageCache of all of the packages that could be included in your manifest, as well define as the relationships between them.
Using the packages defined in PackageCache, create a Manifest or a BuildTarget, which defines the dependencies of the build environment or specific build artifact.
Create a Snapshot to include one or more Manifests or BuildTargets. The snapshot is the base container for submitting dependencies to the Dependency Submission API.
Follow the instructions for Creating a JavaScript Action. These include:
- Defining an action.yml action metadata file
- Compiling the JavaScript into a single script using ncc
- Testing your action in a workflow

A full example action using this library is included in the example/ directory. This example uses the output from the npm list to create an accurate and complete graph of the dependencies used in this library. This action is also included in a workflow in this repository and runs for each commit to the main branch.
