actionlint-action

Installs actionlint and runs it on all workflow files in the repository.

What is so special about this action?

• There is no official actionlint-action as discussed here and here
• Validates the Checksum: Different from other unofficial actions this one validates the checksum of the downloaded binary against the checksums published in the actionlint release notes.

Validating the checksum

For versions v1.6.24 up to v1.7.12 the checksum of the downloaded binary is verified against the checksums published in the actionlint release notes. For later versions you can use the checksum input to verify the checksum of the downloaded binary.
