For native-image based tools, how do people automate their github releases? (cross compiling, creating release, uploading artifacts...)

@plexus Cross compiling isn't a thing in GraalVM. You can check out my GraalVM projects for ideas. I have a bunch of them.

fwiw I still create releases manually and upload the artifacts manually, because I also want to post release notes simultaneously.

GitHub actions are pretty nice. support mac and windows, too IIRC

Might not have enough RAM for Graal NI, dunno

I build babashka on Github actions as well as CircleCI. The latter provider had to bump my memory privileges while I can still build on the normal plan with GH.

For Windows I use AppVeyor although I could use Github actions as well - it's just that Appveyor was first.

Thanks for the input. I like to automate these things as much as possible, fine if it's scripts that I run locally, but might look into gh actions

@plexus Dad is using github actions to automate building native-images and releaseing:slightly_smiling_face: Pushing a new tag is the trigger. https://github.com/liquidz/dad/blob/master/.github/workflows/native_image.yml

@liquidz.uo thanks for sharing, I might borrow that idea one day
