Consider some output variables about release-downloader HOT 7 CLOSED

This sounds like a good addition to this action. I can add the tag_name of a release to the output, as it is readily available.

from release-downloader.

@fiddlermikey I just merged a PR which adds the tag_name output variable to this action. You may use it from the main branch as follows

- uses: robinraju/release-downloader@a2560d77c56d90bc684e42df51576a951cd49b86
  with:
    latest: true
    fileName: "foo.zip"

it can be accessed as follows

${{steps.<step-id>.outputs.tag_name}}

I'll publish a new version once you confirm it works as expected.

I am getting the following error:
Error: unable to verify the first certificate when using release-downloader@main

Reverting back to 1.4 the error went away

A similar issue with a solution described here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71658093/github-actions-self-hosted-runner-error-unable-to-verify-the-first-certificate

Can you try that and see if it works.

The first link is to a solution for self-hosted runners behind a firewall and the second requires access to the runner OS configuration and I am using the github hosted windows-latest runner and do not have the option to mess with the configuration.

I am using the github hosted windows-latest runner

in that case its not required to use the github-api-url: "https://keyfactor.com/api/v3" param.
this option is only for github enterprise hosted on a custom domain.

This option is required if the target repo is hosted on GH enterprise. Unfortunately, I haven't used GH enterprise, and this action is not tested against a real one.

Hi @robinraju Can you create a new release ? I'm not able to use tag_name in the latest release.
