How to use it with other github actions

See original GitHub issue

I tried to use this with an other github action that builds and checks sphinx documentation.

https://github.com/marketplace/actions/sphinx-build

Of course it didn’t pick up the activated environment, so the build failed. I can get it working if I run the shell directly with shell: bash -l {0}.

But the sphinx-build action has some nice features which I like to use.

It does provide a way to run a pre build command. Can that be used to activate the conda-environment?

      - uses: ammaraskar/sphinx-action@master
        with:
          pre-build-command: ..XXXXXX...

I once did something similar in the gitlab ci system where I ran . /opt/conda/etc/profile.d/conda.sh && conda activate sphinx" to get the environment activated. Could I do something similar here?

@goanpeca Thanks a lot. I had indeed the option of running a pre-command. I will try your suggestion.

@melund if you have the opportunity to run a command I think you can use something like:

eval "$(conda shell.bash hook)"; conda activate <env-name>;
