Set up github/licensed for use in actions by installing an executable for the specified version input and target platform.

The action will fail if a licensed package isn't available for the specified version and target platform. Licensed is currently supported on macOS and linux platforms.

Note: this action will overwrite any version of the github/licensed executable already installed at the install-dir input.

See action.yml

list dependencies:

steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@master

    version: '2.x' # required: must satisfy semver.validRange
    install-dir: /path/to/install/at # optional: defaults to /usr/local/bin
    github_token: # optional: allows users to make authenticated requests to GitHub's APIs
- run: npm install # install dependencies in local environment
- run: licensed list
