# webkit2gtk-automator

Automated builder and AUR publisher for [webkit2gtk](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/webkit2gtk), running on GitHub Actions.

Every day a workflow checks the AUR for a new `webkit2gtk` version. When an update is detected, it triggers a build on a 64 cores runner, compiles the package from source inside an Arch Linux container, publishes the resulting binary as a GitHub Release, and updates the [webkit2gtk-bin](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/webkit2gtk-bin) AUR package to point to the new artifact.

## How it works

```

    ├── query latest GitHub Release tag
    ├── if unchanged -> stop
    └── if newer -> trigger build-release.yml with the new version
