Getting ##[error](intermediate value)(intermediate value)(intermediate value) is not iterable

[svenstaro]

There is a use case which is that I use the ReleaseDate as a substitution marker for my automatic release tool. I imagine it's quite a common case and it doesn't really hurt to have that there. I'd like it to also work with your action as it worked before.

Tested and looking good! Thanks.

I just tested this on v1.2.0 of this Action and it works totally fine! I believe v1.3.0 is a bit broken perhaps.

Thank for taking the time to report this issue.

It seems to be related to the SEMVER regex that has been updated in v1.3.0. I'm looking into it currently.

@svenstaro I saw you use ## [Unreleased] - ReleaseDate as a title for your unreleased section. Can you try to remove the " - ReleaseDate" to see if it works for you?

Since v1.3.0 the parser tries to parse the date too and I guess it might fail to parse "ReleaseDate".

[svenstaro]

I did it the reverse way: I added - ReleaseDate to your tests and it works fine which is weird. I didn't try removing it yet due to time constraints. Perhaps you could add my CHANGELOG to this repo in the test flow and see if it breaks and debug it that way? Seems to me that this would be a quicker turnaround for you while debugging this.

Ok, just tried with your file. Check out the action logs:

• no modification: https://github.com/mindsers/changelog-reader-action/runs/850387930
• without the - ReleaseDate: https://github.com/mindsers/changelog-reader-action/runs/850464631

It is working without the fake date. I wonder if there is a use case where we need to use fake dates...

substitution marker for my automatic release tool

It's actually a great use case. So, I made a fix that make the action ignore the fake dates. I'll release it today I think.

Fix released!! 🎉
