For the most part, I've found Github actions to work really well. I've
migrated Calcite's Avatica Go Driver [1] from Travis to Github Actions.
I haven't had time to look into the Calcite and Calcite Avatica
repositories, but I think it should be doable.
The blocker for us is using Actions to automate the publishing of our
website as mentioned previously. Has infra worked out a way/process to
enable this? For us, it would simply be a token to push to the
calcite-site repository in Gitbox (I'd imagine the same token being used
on the git-website node would suffice) being added as a Github Actions
secret for us to enable this.
The automation [2] to do this using Github Actions has been tested and
validated, but we are just missing the credentials to push to the
calcite-site repo.

It has been a couple months. Have GitHub Actions worked out for you? Can
you share? Are there things needed from Infra?
I would like to know if there is a path for projects to move *off* Jenkins,
Travis, Circle, etc .. and *onto* GitHub Actions. Can GHA solve projects'
needs for CD/CI??
thx,

I think there are quite a few ASF projects using gitbox and Github and
this would be a very good complement or replacement for Travis, appvoyer
and other CI/CD platforms currently in use.
Is there any interest from the ASF to enable this for all Gitbox
projects when it becomes fully public?
Absolutely. The Infrastructure team would love to see groups try this out,
and share the experiences here.
If there are any hurdles, then share them and we'll try to knock them down.
I am also interested in being able to push to our website automatically
using Github Actions. If the git token that can push to a particular
website repository is added as a secret [2] to Github Actions, this
would be pretty easy to use for projects to automate the building of
their websites.
Should be possible. Again, comes back to groups trying this and reporting
back how well it went.
Cheers,
