V3 Failed to fetch packages with temporal token

[ricardo-s-ferreira-alb]

when using a list of images (separeted by comma or space) I get an error. if the configuration has only one image name it runs sucessully.

Here a sample of falling:

Thanks for the report! Are you able to run this, in a workflow?

- run: |
    curl -L \
        -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
        -H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}" \
        -H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" \
        https://api.github.com/orgs/{{ account }}/packages/container/{{ image1 }}
- run: |
    curl -L \
        -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
        -H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}" \
        -H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" \
        https://api.github.com/orgs/{{ account }}/packages/container/{{ image2 }}

(replace /orgs/{{ account }} with /{{ username }} if it's a personal account)

For each of your images?

You should get a response like this:

Which should be parsable by our Package representation:

#[derive(Debug, Clone, Deserialize)]
pub struct Package {
    pub id: u32,
    pub name: String,
    pub created_at: DateTime<Utc>,
    pub updated_at: Option<DateTime<Utc>>,
}

The error message you get, seems to indicate that you're not able to fetch the data properly, but let's make sure 🙂

This helped me!

I had the same error message. Using the curl command above I got a 404, which made me notice that there was an error in the image name, it had the repository/image format.

[cswilliams]

hmm, I'm also struggling to get this to work. I've created a new github app with these permissions:

 Read access to code and metadata
 Read and write access to packages

I've installed it in my org and given it access to all repos.
I also checked that my packages have "admin" role on the repo running the workflow. Here's the workflow I'm using:

      - name: Generate a token
        id: generate-token
        uses: actions/create-github-app-token@31c86eb3b33c9b601a1f60f98dcbfd1d70f379b4 # v1.10.3
        with:
          app-id: ${{ vars.PKG_CLEANUP_APP_ID }}
          private-key: ${{ secrets.PKG_CLEANUP_APP_PRIVATE_KEY }}
      - name: Cleanup
        uses: snok/container-retention-policy@4f22ef80902ad409ed55a99dc5133cc1250a0d03 # v3.0.0
        with:
          image-names: core_base
          token: ${{ steps.generate-token.outputs.token }}
          cut-off: 4w 
          timestamp-to-use: updated_at
          account: ${{ github.repository_owner }}
          tag-selection: untagged
          dry-run: true

and I get:

thread 'main' panicked at src/client/client.rs:50:18:

I tried your troubleshooting step above putting this between the generate-token and the container-retention-policy:

      - run: |
          curl -L \
            -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
            -H "Authorization: Bearer ${{ steps.generate-token.outputs.token }}" \
            -H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" \
            https://api.github.com/orgs/my-org/packages/container/core_base

and I get:

{
  "message": "Package not found.",
  "documentation_url": "https://docs.github.com/rest/packages/packages#get-a-package-for-an-organization",
  "status": "404"
}

However, if I make this same curl request from my local machine using a PAT with package:read I get a full response showing the package information and don't get a 404. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I'm guessing it must be some permissions issue with the app, but I've already granted it RW packages, RO metadata. I also tried adding read only to contents to see if that would help, but no luck. Thanks!

[cswilliams]

I was able to get it working after swapping to the temporal token instead of the github app installation access token. I tried a bunch of different things (recreated and reinstalled the app several times, tried enabling every permission, tried setting repo and permissions explicitly when generating the access token, but no matter what I tried, I would always get a 404 when trying to list packages. I wonder if it's some issue on the github side. Their api docs seem to suggest that an installation access token should work, but who knows. At any rate, the temporal token works for me and is less setup than the app based token anyway. I probably should have just started with that all along!

[sondrelg]

How strange. The workflow and permissions seem correct, according to how I've set it up during testing. The image names do need to be percent encoded, if you've got, e.g., a / in the image name. Underscores should be OK, I think 🤔

[sscheib]

I seem to hit the same issue, but with both the temporal GH Token and a personal token.

While debugging this, I found that the following URLs worked:

• https://api.github.com/users/sscheib/packages/container/jekyll-build
• https://api.github.com/user/packages/container/jekyll-build

Whereas the suggested URL https://api.github.com/sscheib/packages/container/jekyll-build yields a 404.

I have no idea what's causing this or whether GitHub changed the API in the meanwhile.

// EDIT

Totally my fault. I misunderstood the account variable. I put in my username 😆

Hehe yeah for potential readers, specifying anything other than user for the username implicitly means you're telling the action you're an organization. I can definitely see how, while it makes for a compressed interface for the action, this might become a source of confusion 😅

[eberkund]

For me, I resolved the issue by going into package settings and ensuring the package was giving correct permissions to the repo's GitHub Actions.

[fede843]

have this very same issue. Cannot use this action due to this
