rmskin-action
=============

A Python-based Github action tool to package a Repository's Rainmeter Content into a validating .rmskin file for Rainmeter's Skin Installer.
A Python-based Github action tool to package a Repository's Rainmeter Content into a validating
.rmskin file for Rainmeter's Skin Installer.

.. important::
If the repository contains a RMSKIN.bmp image to used as a header image in the rmskin package, then it must be using 24-bit colors.
Additionally, if the image is not exactly 400x60, then this action's python script will resize it accordingly.

rmskin-builder Python package
-----------------------------

This action's *rmskin-builder.py* is now also available as a Python executable script via PyPI.
However, it is important that your Python installation's *Scripts* folder is found in your
Operating System's environment variable ``PATH``. If you're using a Python virtual envirnment,
then the *Scripts* folder does not need to be in your Operating System's environment variable
``PATH``.

.. code-block:: shell
pip install rmskin-builder
rmskin-builder.exe --help

.. note::
You can use your repository's ``RMSKIN.ini`` file to override any above inputs except ``dir_out`` & ``path`` inputs.

The above arguments are used as CLI arguments to the *rmskin-builder.py* script, but remember to
append the CLI arguments' name with a ``--``. For example, setting the ``path`` argument to use a
relative directory called *tests*:

.. code-block:: shell
rmskin-builder.py --path tests
Output Arguments
================

* ``arc_name`` : The name of the generated rmskin file saved in the
path specified by ``dir_out`` input argument.

If executing the *rmskin-builder.py* script when not in a Github Action Runner, then this output
argument will show in the script's log output (& not saved anywhere).
