Provide easier migration from Build Tools to Actions?

[devkeydet]

GitHub has GitHub Actions Importer
https://docs.github.com/en/actions/migrating-to-github-actions/automated-migrations/migrating-from-azure-devops-with-github-actions-importer

Would be nice if actions importer had more seamless migration from tasks to actions out of the box.

If not a collaboration between you and the GitHub Actions Importer team, it would be nice if you provided custom transformers people can use (or start with) so everyone doesn't have to build their own custom transformer to migrate.

If the answer is no, is anyone in the community aware of custom transformers that have already been built to convert Power Platform Build Tools tasks to GitHub Actions for Power Platform?

[devkeydet]

Here is a rudimentary example of a custom transformer that successfully converts a rudimentary devops yaml file with a couple Power Platform Build Tools tasks to a github yaml file that uses GitHub Actions for Power Platform.

power-platform.rb

transform "PowerPlatformToolInstaller@2" do |item|
    {
        "uses" => "microsoft/powerplatform-actions/actions-install@v1"
    }
end

transform "PowerPlatformWhoAmi@2" do |item|
    secretPrefix = "${{secrets." + item["PowerPlatformSPN"].upcase.sub('-','_')
    {
        "uses" => "microsoft/powerplatform-actions/who-am-i@v1",
        "with" => {
            "environment-url" => '${{secrets.ENVIRONMENT_URL}}',
            "tenant-id" => secretPrefix + "_TENANT_ID}}",
            "app-id" => secretPrefix + "_APP_ID}}",
            "client-secret" => secretPrefix + "_CLIENT_SECRET}}"
        }
    }
end

source.yml

trigger: none
pool:
  vmImage: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- task: PowerPlatformToolInstaller@2
  displayName: Install Power Platform Build Tools
  inputs:
    DefaultVersion: true
- task: PowerPlatformWhoAmi@2
  displayName: Call WhoAmI
  inputs:
    authenticationType: PowerPlatformSPN
    PowerPlatformSPN: pipelines-spn
    Environment: "$(BuildTools.EnvironmentUrl)"

converted.yml

name: devkeydet-dev/hello-world
on:
  workflow_dispatch:
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: checkout
      uses: actions/[email protected]
    - name: Install Power Platform Build Tools
      uses: microsoft/powerplatform-actions/actions-install@v1
    - name: Call WhoAmI
      uses: microsoft/powerplatform-actions/who-am-i@v1
      with:
        environment-url: "${{secrets.ENVIRONMENT_URL}}"
        tenant-id: "${{secrets.PIPELINES_SPN_TENANT_ID}}"
        app-id: "${{secrets.PIPELINES_SPN_APP_ID}}"
        client-secret: "${{secrets.PIPELINES_SPN_CLIENT_SECRET}}"

I've also placed the sample power-platform.rb custom transformer into a repo in case people want to start collaborating on building out a transformer others can use as a starting point.
