Sourced from actions/setup-node's releases.

v3.0.0

In scope of this release we changed version of the runtime Node.js for the setup-node action and updated package-lock.json file to v2.

Breaking Changes

• With the update to Node 16 in actions/setup-node#414, all scripts will now be run with Node 16 rather than Node 12.
• We removed deprecated version input (actions/setup-node#424). Please use node-version input instead.

Fix logic of error handling for npm warning and uncaught exception

In scope of this release we fix logic of error handling related to caching (actions/setup-node#358) and (actions/setup-node#359).

In the previous behaviour we relied on stderr output to throw error. The warning messages from package managers can be written to the stderr's output. For now the action will throw an error only if exit code differs from zero. Besides, we add logic to сatch and log unhandled exceptions.

Adding Node.js version file support

In scope of this release we add the node-version-file input and update actions/cache dependency to the latest version.

Adding Node.js version file support

The new input (node-version-file) provides functionality to specify the path to the file containing Node.js's version with such behaviour:

• If the file does not exist the action will throw an error.
• If you specify both node-version and node-version-file inputs, the action will use value from the node-version input and throw the following warning: Both node-version and node-version-file inputs are specified, only node-version will be used.
• For now the action does not support all of the variety of values for Node.js version files. The action can handle values according to the documentation and values with v prefix (v14)

steps:
 - uses: actions/checkout@v2
 - name: Setup node from node version file
 uses: actions/setup-node@v2
 with:
 node-version-file: '.nvmrc'
 - run: npm install
 - run: npm test

Update actions/cache dependency to 1.0.8 version.

We updated actions/cache dependency to the latest version (1.0.8). For more information please refer to the toolkit/cache.

Add "cache-hit" output

This release introduces a new output: cache-hit (#327).

The cache-hit output contains boolean value indicating that an exact match was found for the key. It shows that the action uses already existing cache or not. The output is available only if cache is enabled.

Support caching for mono repos and repositories with complex structure

This release introduces dependency caching support for mono repos and repositories with complex structure (#305).

By default, the action searches for the dependency file (package-lock.json or yarn.lock) in the repository root. Use the cache-dependency-path input for cases when multiple dependency files are used, or they are located in different subdirectories. This input supports wildcards or a list of file names for caching multiple dependencies.

Yaml example:

steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: actions/setup-node@v2
