Cleanup GHCR Containers Action

This action deletes old versions of containers on Github container registry (ghcr.io). By default only the latest version.

This action works only for containers, no other package format.

Since the Github Token has no access to the container REST API, a PAT with packages read- and write-permission is needed to access the packages.

Inputs

access-token

Required Access token (PAT) with packages read- and write-permisson.

package-name

Required Name of the package to work with

versions-to-keep

How many versions should be left untouched. Default is '1', only the latest.

Example usage

Keep only the latest version:

uses: d22/cleanup-ghcr-containers-action@v0.3.3
with:
  access-token: ${{ secrets.PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN }}
  package-name: 'master-tool-dev'

Keep the latest and the two following versions:

uses: d22/cleanup-ghcr-containers-action@v0.3.3
with:
  access-token: ${{ secrets.PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN }}
  package-name: 'master-tool-dev'
  versions-to-keep: 3
