This is a GitHub Action used to format Verilog and SystemVerilog source files and create change suggestions in Pull Requests automatically. The GitHub Token input is used to provide reviewdog access to the PR.
Here's a basic example to format all *.v and *.sv files:
name: Verible formatter example
on:
pull_request:
jobs:
format:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@master
- uses: chipsalliance/verible-formatter-action@main
with:
github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}You can specify the files to format by setting the files argument to a whitespace-separated list of file patterns.
The patterns are unix-like globs with support for ** (bash's "globstar").
To recursively search for *.v and *.sv files in the my_design folder, you can set files to 'my_design/**/*.{v,sv}'
By default files has the value './**/*.{v,sv}'. This searches for all *.v and *.sv files in the repository.
- uses: chipsalliance/verible-formatter-action@main
with:
files:
./rtl/my_file.sv
./rtl/module/*.sv
./testbench/**/*.{v,sv}
github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}If you want to declare Verible version to be used,
you can pass its release tag in the input verible_version:
- uses: actions/checkout@master
- uses: chipsalliance/verible-formatter-action@main
with:
verible_version: "v0.0-3100-gd75b1c47"
github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}Additionally, you can add various flags to the formatter with the parameters input:
- uses: chipsalliance/verible-formatter-action@main
with:
files:
./design/**/*.{v,sv}
parameters:
--indentation_spaces 4
--module_net_variable_alignment=preserve
--case_items_alignment=preserve
github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}In GitHub Actions, workflows triggered by external repositories may only have
read access to the main repository.
In order to have automatic reviews on external PRs, you need to change your workflow to trigger
on pull_request_target event and manually check out changes from pull request:
name: Verible formatter example
