How to use
- Star this repo 😉
- Go to your special repository(repo with name the same as git username).
- Create a folder named
.githuband create aworkflowsfolder inside it, if it doesn't exist. - Create a new file named
octo-lang.ymlwith the following contents inside the workflow folder:
name: Octo my README
on:
# schedule: # Run workflow automatically
# - cron: '0 * * * *' # Runs every hour, on the hour
workflow_dispatch: # Run workflow manually (without waiting for the cron to be called), through the Github Actions Workflow page directly
jobs:
get_lang_gen_octo:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
name: Get Language & Generate Ocoto-lang
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Get most used language then generate ocoto lang
id: octo-lang
uses: arndom/octo-my-readme-workflow@v1
- Commit and trigger it manually, after the run, a
my-ocoto-lang.pngfile…

Additional Resources / Info
This is my first github action and I was stuck for a bit realizing my idea but thanks to existing workflows; blog-post-workflow & github-update-readme and the styling of the octocat by my friend; @Rahnard I was able to make this.
Hope you like it 🤗, Don't forget to leave a star ⭐

Oh, this is fun! Nice work. You should add a description, link and topics to your repo, too. I can see you’ve used the action on your own GH Profile, looks cool.
Thanks, I'll be sure do add those
👌
