About

GitHub Action to configuring credentials for automated publishing of packages to pub.dev

When configuring automated publishing you don't need to create a long-lived secret that is copied into your automated deployment environment. Instead, authentication relies on temporary OpenID-Connect tokens signed by GitHub Actions.

See Automated publishing of packages to pub.dev and OpenID Connect allows your workflows to exchange short-lived tokens directly from your cloud provider for more information.

Usage

# .github/workflows/publish.yml
name: Publish to pub.dev

  push:
    tags:
    - 'v[0-9]+.[0-9]+.[0-9]+*' # tag pattern on pub.dev: 'v{{version}'

# Publish using custom workflow
jobs:
  publish:
    permissions:
      id-token: write # Required for authentication using OIDC
      contents: read
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
