This GitHub Action installs the OCI CLI and then runs the specified command. This action will automatically cache the OCI CLI install to speed up any subsequent steps that use this action.

The following OCI CLI environment variables must be defined for at least the run-oci-cli-command task:

• OCI_CLI_USER
• OCI_CLI_TENANCY
• OCI_CLI_FINGERPRINT
• OCI_CLI_KEY_CONTENT
• OCI_CLI_REGION

We recommend using GitHub Secrets to store these values. If you have more than one run-oci-cli-command task, consider defining your environment variables at the job or workflow level.

• command (required): the command and arguments to provide to the oci tool.
• query: (optional) a JMESPath query to run on the response JSON before output.

By default, the output(s) from the command are masked from the GitHub Actions log and GitHub console, to prevent leaking any credential or confidential information. The following option will disable that masking and is intended for debugging purposes only:

• silent: (Optional; default: true) If set to false the action will not mask or suppress the command or outputs from the logs or console.

Note: the output does not need to be visible in the log to be used as an input by another task.

• output: will contain the results of the command.
• raw_output: if the output of a given query is a single string value, raw_output will return the string without surrounding quotes.

Note: filtering the output or raw_output by piping it through another tool like jq may result in the filtered output being visible in the job logs. We recommend using the query parameter whenever possible.

If the result of the command is not valid JSON, it will not be visible unless silent is set to false.

The following example lists all compute instances found in the testing compartment of the OCI_CLI_TENANCY in the OCI_CLI_REGION region.

To change the name of the compartment, modifying the query parameter of the find-compartment-id step.

To change which fields are returned, modify the query parameter of the find-instances step.
