YAML

YAML is a human-readable data-serialization language. It is commonly used for configuration files and in applications where data is being stored or transmitted.

        description: "Commit Log"
        required: true
        default: "a commit a day keeps your girlfriend away"

        run: git commit --allow-empty -m "a commit a day keeps your girlfriend away"

      - name: Commit (input)
        if: github.event.inputs.log != 0
        run: git commit --allow-empty -m "${{ github.event.inputs.log }}"

Manual Event

Use the workflow_dispatch event to manually trigger workflow runs. When the workflow runs, access the input values in the github.event.inputs context.

Scheduled Event

Use the schedule event to trigger a workflow at a scheduled time. Cron syntax has five fields separated by a space, and each field represents a unit of time.

┌───────────── minute (0 - 59)
│ ┌───────────── hour (0 - 23)
│ │ ┌───────────── day of the month (1 - 31)
│ │ │ ┌───────────── month (1 - 12 or JAN-DEC)
│ │ │ │ ┌───────────── day of the week (0 - 6 or SUN-SAT)
│ │ │ │ │                                   
│ │ │ │ │
│ │ │ │ │
* * * * *

You can use crontab guru to help generate your cron syntax and confirm what time it will run.
