Access output even when job fails
kasuteru opened this issue · comments
Currently, when the job fails, the outputs are not written - but this is exactly when they are interesting! (Especially the link to the run url). Ideally, a 5th output about the success of the notebook (read from the jobs run API - SUCCESS / FAILURE / CANCELLED...) would also report state.
Use case for this is to notify, in follow-up step, the team that something went wrong, directly providing them with the link to the notebook and the error message.
Is this repository still maintained? Is there a chance to get this added? Or at least, to get it merged? I am asking because the last change was made in 2022...
Edit: What I meant by 5th output would be result_state:
Edit: I managed to implement this for run_url, which for my use case is the relevant variable that I need in case a job fails. I integrated this in my workflow and it actually works.
If there is any interest from the authors of this repository, I can provide the code as a PR (it's just a few lines of change). Definitely it is possible to have the other outputs as well.
After trying to implement this, it unfortunately seems like github actions doesn't allow setting outputs when errors arise, so it looks like this needs to be a custom solution. If I find something worth merging I will write a PR but for now I will copy this action and adapt it to our needs.
