      - name: Create commit comment
        uses: restreamio/github-action-commit-comment@latest
        with:
          sha: 843dea1cc2e721163c20a5c876b5b155f7f3aa75
          body: |
            This is a multi-line test comment
            - With GitHub **Markdown** :sparkles:
            - Created by [commit-comment][1]

            [1]: https://github.com/restreamio/github-action-commit-comment
          path: path/to/file.txt
          position: 1

Setting the comment body from a file

This example shows how file content can be read into a variable and passed to the action. The content must be escaped to preserve newlines.

      - id: get-comment-body
        run: |
          body=$(cat comment-body.txt)
          body="${body//'%'/'%25'}"
          body="${body//$'\n'/'%0A'}"
          body="${body//$'\r'/'%0D'}" 
          echo ::set-output name=body::$body

      - name: Create commit comment
        uses: restreamio/github-action-commit-comment@latest
        with:
          body: ${{ steps.get-comment-body.outputs.body }}

Accessing commits in other repositories

You can create a commit comment in another repository by using a PAT instead of GITHUB_TOKEN. The user associated with the PAT must have write access to the repository.
