A GitHub Action for Ruff

Ruff can now be used as a GitHub Action.

This action is commonly used as a pass/fail test to ensure your repository stays clean, abiding the Rules specified in your configuration. Though it runs ruff, the action can do anything ruff can (ex, fix).

This action is known to support all GitHub-hosted runner OSes. It likely can run on self-hosted runners, but might need specific dependencies. Only published versions of Ruff are supported (i.e. whatever is available on PyPI).

Create a file (ex: .github/workflows/ruff.yml) inside your repository with:

name: Ruff
on: [push, pull_request]
jobs:
 ruff:
 runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 steps:
 - uses: actions/checkout@v4
 - uses: chartboost/ruff-action@v1

The Ruff action can be customized via optional configuration parameters passed to Ruff (using with:):

• version: Must be a Ruff release available on PyPI. By default, latest release of Ruff. You can pin a version, or use any valid version specifier.
• args: You can specify the arguments to pass to the ruff command. By default, it's check.
• src: default, '.'
