This action provides the following functionality for GitHub Actions runners:
- Downloading and setting up a requested version of Java. See [Usage](#Usage) for a list of supported distributions
- Extracting and caching custom version of Java from a local file
- Configuring runner for publishing using Apache Maven
- Configuring runner for publishing using Gradle
- Configuring runner for using GPG private key
- Registering problem matchers for error output
## V2 vs V1
- V2 supports custom distributions and provides support for Zulu OpenJDK and Adopt OpenJDK out of the box. V1 supports only Zulu OpenJDK
- V2 requires you to specify distribution along with the version. V1 defaults to Zulu OpenJDK, only version input is required. Follow [the migration guide](docs/switching-to-v2.md) to switch from V1 to V2
## Usage
Inputs `java-version` and `distribution` are mandatory. See [Supported distributions](../README.md#Supported-distributions) section for a list of available options.
### Basic
```yaml
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-java@v2-preview
with:
distribution: 'adopt' # See 'Supported distributions' for available options
java-version: '11'
- run: java -cp java HelloWorldApp
```
#### Supported version syntax
The `java-version` input supports an exact version or a version range using [SemVer](https://semver.org/) notation:
- major versions: `8`, `11`, `15`
- more specific versions: `11.0`, `11.0.4`, `8.0.232`, `8.0.282+8`
- early access (EA) versions: `15-ea`, `15.0.0-ea`, `15.0.0-ea.2`, `15.0.0+2-ea`
**Note:** 4-digit notation will always force action to skip checking pre-cached versions and download version in runtime.
#### Supported distributions
Currently, the following distributions are supported:
| Keyword | Distribution | Official site | License |
|-|-|-|-|
| `zulu` | Zulu OpenJDK | [Link](https://www.azul.com/downloads/zulu-community/?package=jdk) | [Link](https://www.azul.com/products/zulu-and-zulu-enterprise/zulu-terms-of-use/) |
| `adopt` | Adopt OpenJDK | [Link](https://adoptopenjdk.net/) | [Link](https://adoptopenjdk.net/about.html)
**NOTE:** The different distributors can provide discrepant list of available versions / supported configurations. Please refer to the official documentation to see the list of supported versions.
#### Testing against different Java versions
```yaml
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-20.04
strategy:
matrix:
java: [ '8', '11', '13', '15' ]
name: Java ${{ matrix.Java }} sample
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Setup java
uses: actions/setup-java@v2-preview
with:
distribution: '<distribution>'
java-version: ${{ matrix.java }}
- run: java -cp java HelloWorldApp
```
