This book covers a wide range of topics, from the fundamentals of GitHub Actions to advanced subjects, with a particular focus on building continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.
Today I’d like to review Brent Laster’s book Learning GitHub Actions. I think it will be very useful for anyone who wants to study GitHub Actions in depth, so let me tell you about it. 🔖 Why it caught my interest I’d never studied GitHub Actions in detail or learned how it worked. But, as readers of my recent posts may know, I became interested after trying GitHub Actions to check a development blog for new posts on a schedule and automatically update my GitHub profile README. As I’ve worked
This book is for readers who have a basic knowledge of Git and GitHub and want to use that knowledge to work with GitHub Actions. I think it’s useful for people who want to manage their software development life cycle with GitHub Actions as an automation platform and framework. The table of contents has four main parts. Part 1 explains what GitHub Actions is, with a focus on use cases. Part 2 covers its components, including workflow environments, data, and run management. Part 3 covers
GitHub provides a cloud-based version control system (VCS) built on Git. GitHub Actions handles CI/CD within GitHub. When code changes, you can automate builds, tests, and execution, then deploy to a service environment. There are many CI/CD tools, but GitHub Actions’ strength is that it lets you use a range of automated features connected to GitHub. Learning GitHub Actions explains everything needed from the moment code is committed through deployment. It starts with how the system works and
CI/CD is essential in software development and in MLOps, which has grown rapidly in recent years. It’s used at key points from model training through deployment and serving, helping make development more efficient. Existing CI/CD tools like Jenkins and Argo CD are certainly useful, but as an ML engineer, they made me wonder, ‘Do I really need to use all this?’ Maybe I was the only one. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I had to step outside the Git and GitHub environment and juggle a mess of
Continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) have become essential parts of modern software development. To add deployment pipelines or other automation to open-source projects managed on GitHub, people used to rely on external solutions. GitHub developed its own solution, GitHub Actions, making it easy to build CI/CD pipelines without outside tools. This book reveals the potential of GitHub Actions and the benefits of automation, with an in-depth focus on how to use it—from the
