`branch-based-secrets` GitHub Action

This action makes it easy to use different secrets for different branches. It relies on the following naming scheme for secrets: <name>_<branch>.

Fork Note:

This is a fork not to depend on an external repo. If you are not from El Dorado, please use the original by noliran.

In a project with 2 branches, prod and dev, define the following secrets:

Step configuration:

      - uses: eldoradoio/branch-based-secrets@v1
        with:
          secrets: SECRET_TOKEN

In turn, when running an action on a push to dev or a pull_request targeted at branch dev, this will define the following environment variables:

After the action runs, you can pass the correct secret to other steps:

        env:
          SECRET_TOKEN: ${{ secrets[env.SECRET_TOKEN_NAME] }}
