Build Typst documents using GitHub workflows.
The following .github/workflows/build.yaml action compiles main.typ to main.pdf on every push.
name: Build Typst document

steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v3
- name: Typst
uses: lvignoli/typst-action@main
with:
source_file: main.typHere we compile multiple files on each push, and publish all the PDFs in a tagged and timestamped release when the commit is tagged.

Repository lvignoli/typst-action-example provides an example setup on a whole repo.
-
This action runs on the docker image shipped with the latest Typst. As long as Typst is in v0, changes of the CLI API are to be expected, breaking the workflow. I'll update regularly.
-
I was hasty to tag for a v1. I have now deleted it. As long as Typst is not in a stable state, the action will stay in v0. You should use
lvignoli/typst-action@mainin the meantime.
