Create an automated release workflow.

Based on https://github.com/dev-sec/ansible-nginx-hardening/pull/28/files

We must add the inspec.yml version field update.

Internally, I use mikefarah/yq with the following cli:

yq w -I4 -i inspec.yml version ${nextRelease.version} && sed -i '1i---' inspec.yml

The sed is needed as yq removes the leading --- yq issue

What are your thoughts on that @rndmh3ro ?

[chris-rock]

I like that, should we tie this to Github actions?

[micheelengronne]

I think so. I would reproduce the 2 files present in the ansible-nginx-hardening commit.

The only thing that's missing is the step to update inspec.yml. I have never done a github actions before (I work on Gitlab and Gitea) so I don't know the correct syntax of this step.

Here's an example on how to use yq in an action: https://github.com/ioled/gateway-api/blob/4f5f70b789c3e5f59c946643e6bf097dff380c4a/.github/workflows/deploy-testing.yml#L15

I see there is no push action in your release.yml. Does the create-release action make the push or should I include one to push the new inspec.yml before the create-release ?

[rndmh3ro]

Yeah, my release-action does not push. the changelog-action does it.

should I include one to push the new inspec.yml before the create-release ?

If you need to update the version, then yes, I think it should be done there.

[micheelengronne]

Ok, I will do a first draft.
