Running action inside of container does not work

[natlibfi-jonollil]

  license-scan:
    name: License compliance check
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    container: docker://node:20

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: mikaelvesavuori/[email protected]

My deduction is that location of script.sh file is not in same place as in the runner.

Interesting... In the action, this line tries to get the action path:

license-compliance-action/action.yml

Line 22 in e8cf35e

- run: ${{ github.action_path }}/script.sh "${{ inputs.allow_licenses }}" "${{ inputs.nested_field }}" "${{ inputs.exclude_pattern }}"

And the paths seem broken in containers: actions/runner#716

Will see if I can fix this with the workarounds mentioned.

Hi @natlibfi-jonollil!

This should now be solved in https://github.com/mikaelvesavuori/license-compliance-action/releases/tag/v1.0.3. You can use either @v1 or @v1.0.3.

Leaving a proof at https://github.com/mikaelvesavuori/license-container-test/actions/runs/7972722614/job/21765071766 that (to the best of my ability) demonstrates it working. If you're not seeing logs then I'm having the same issue too...? At least checking the raw logs makes it look like it does its thing without breaking:

Will close this. Feel free to open or comment if this is indeed not working.

Thanks! Works nicely!
