Reading version from .ruby-version and Windows support #4
Description
What is the best way of reading ruby version from .ruby-version file?
Something like:
- uses: eregon/use-ruby-action@master
with:
ruby-version: "$(cat .ruby-version)" # or similarAlso, I didn't want to open an another issue for this but do you plan to support Windows? It would be awesome if we can get the windows builds. Windows support is live. Thank you.

Unfortunately I think that syntax doesn't work and GitHub Actions is fairly restrictive on values for
with:.Did you try it to see what happens? I guess the String is passed as-is.
Maybe I should add a special value like
".ruby-version", or I think simpler ifruby-version:is unset look if there is a.ruby-versionin the current directory and use that?gencer commentedon Jan 6, 2020
For the first question, as you presumed it didn't worked.
And for
.ruby-versionsupport will be awesome because, we constantly update our ruby versions and it will be great to see it sync on each CI runs. This way, dependabot and other pull requests that uses another version (outdated) will still work even if we upgrade onmaster.P.S.: Thank you so much for this great action and taking care of building ruby for us!

Could you give me an example of the format you use for
.ruby-version?Something like
ruby-2.6.5?eregon commentedon Jan 6, 2020
It works with a61be15, thank you for the suggestion.
I updated the README to document this.
Using
should be enough if there is a
.ruby-versionfile.You can also set it explicitly to
.ruby-version:gencer commentedon Jan 7, 2020
@eregon Thank you one more time for quick solution on this case. First option is the most cleaner. I always have
.ruby-versionon root.Have a nice week!
Read from .ruby-version if version is unset or set to '.ruby-version'
