Sync your Spotify to Slack status

#actionshackathon21

This is a an open-source project that serves as both website as well as a backend for Slack app that synchronizes Spotify song to your Slack status.

My Workflow

GitHub workflow master.yml:

  1. Workflow sets up appropriate environment using actions/checkout and actions/setup-java.
  2. After that the gradle packages are cached via actions/cache@v2
  3. Gradle properties file is read via christian-draeger/read-properties, so that final deployment file can inherit proper semantic version
  4. Once the build is finished and the final zip file is generated, artifact is deployed to AWS beanstalk via einaregilsson/beanstalk-deploy. AWS credentials are passed via Github secrets

As a result, workflow deploys a new version of the application to AWS beanstalk as soon as a change is detected on master branch.
