Referencing PSRule main branch

[Gordonby]

Perhaps I'm conflating the 2 repos. #whoops

My aim is to test what was committed in this PR.
Azure/PSRule.Rules.Azure#2004

@Gordonby I might not be understanding the issue correctly so please correct me.

PSRule v2.7.0 is the latest version, and the GitHub Action microsoft/[email protected] should be installing PSRule v2.7.0 by default.

Using microsoft/ps-rule@main will also install PSRule v2.7.0 by default because no newer version is available.

The microsoft/ps-rule@main is the correct syntax to use the latest version of the GitHub Action. However, currently there is no difference between @main and v2.7.0 because they point to the same commit 1570d77.

If you would like to install a different PSRule version with the microsoft/ps-rule action you can specify the version: input parameter as you have done. The value of the version: parameter is the version of the PowerShell module you would like to install not the branch/ tag name, we can improve the documentation here.

For example, the following would use the latest action but install PSRule v1.11.1.

- name: Run PSRule analysis
  uses: microsoft/ps-rule@main
  with:
    version: '1.11.1'

See usage

So if you want to install latest stable version of everything just use:

      - name: PSRule for Azure - Well Architected
        uses: microsoft/ps-rule@main
        continue-on-error: true #Setting this whilst PSRule gets bedded in, in this project
        with:
          modules: 'PSRule.Rules.Azure'
          inputPath: "${{ env.ParamFilePath }}"

I hope that helps.

@Gordonby Sure no problem. You should get the latest version with the prerelease: true input parameter.

So try:

      - name: PSRule for Azure - Well Architected
        #uses: microsoft/[email protected]
        uses: microsoft/ps-rule@main
        continue-on-error: true #Setting this whilst PSRule gets bedded in, in this project
        with:
          modules: 'PSRule.Rules.Azure'
          inputPath: "${{ env.ParamFilePath }}"
          prerelease: true

This should install the latest prerelease version PSRule for Azure which would be v1.24.0-B0035. Currently there isn't a way to target a specific prerelease for PSRule for Azure, but it shouldn't matter in the case :)
