Valist provides an extremely easy to integrate GitHub Action that enables you to publish anything from source code snapshots, arbitrary binaries, Docker images, NPM packages, or anything else that you're building in your existing CI/CD pipeline!
It can be found in the GitHub Marketplace below:

Super easy!
The private-key field maps to your GitHub Repository secret that contains a key with permission on the Valist Project. We strongly recommend this is a fresh key that only has access to the corresponding Valist Project, and that you don't use an Account-level admin key here.
The account field maps to your Valist Account
The project field maps to the Valist Project you wish to publish to
The release field maps to the version/tag you wish to release
The files field is a list of files that you wish to publish in the release. In this case, the ** value will publish all files in the repository, creating a source code snapshot.
For a set of examples, check out this repository below:

The Valist Action is built to be modular, and compatible with your existing pipeline. There are many ways to configure it! Next, we'll demonstrate how to automatically publish your GitHub Releases with it!
