gha

Daggerizing your CI makes your YAML configurations smaller, but they still exist,
and they're still a pain to maintain by hand.

This module aims to finish the job, by letting you generate your remaining
YAML configuration from a Dagger pipeline, written in your favorite language.
Example (CustomModule)
no available example in current language
// Compose a pipeline from an external module, instead of the one embedded in the repo.
func (m *Examples) Gha_CustomModule() *dagger.Directory {
	return dag.
		Gha().
		WithPipeline(
			"say hello",
			"hello --name=$GITHUB_REPOSITORY_OWNER",
			dagger.GhaWithPipelineOpts{
				Module: "github.com/shykes/hello",
			}).
		Config()
}
