  "github_readme_excerpt": "The `action-validator` is a standalone tool designed to \"lint\" the YAML files\nused to define GitHub Actions and Workflows. It ensures that they are well-formed,\nby checking them against published JSON schemas, and it makes sure that any\nglobs used in `paths` / `paths-ignore` match at least one file in the repo.\n\nThe intended use case for `action-validator` is in Git pre-commit hooks and\nsimilar situations.\n\n\n# Funding Development\n\nI am currently experimenting with ways to fund development of new features in `action-validator`.\nYou can find more details of this approach at [the `action-validator` code fund page](https://hezmatt.org/~mpalmer/code-fund.html).\n\n\n# Installation\n\nWe have many ways to install `action-validator`.\n\n## Pre-built binaries\n\nThe [GitHub releases](https://github.com/mpalmer/action-validator/releases)\nhave some pre-built binaries -- just download and put them in your path. If a\nbinary for your platform isn\u0027t available, let me know and I\u0027ll see what I can\nfigure out.\n\n\n## Using cargo\n\nIf you\u0027ve got a Rust toolchain installed, running `cargo install action-validator` should give you the latest release.\n\n\n## Using asdf\n\nIf you\u0027re a proponent of the [asdf tool](https://asdf-vm.com/), then you can\nuse that to install and manage `action-validator`:\n\n```shell\nasdf plugin add action-validator\n# or\nasdf plugin add action-validator https://github.com/mpalmer/action-validator.git\n```\n\nInstall/configure action-validator:\n\n```shell\n# Show all installable versions\nasdf list-all action-validator\n\n# Install specific version\nasdf install action-validator latest\n\n# Set a version globally (on your ~/.tool-versions file)\nasdf set -u action-validator latest\n\n# Now action-validator commands are available\naction-validator --help\n```\n\n\n# Using mise\n\nIf you are a passionate user of [mise](https://github.com/jdx/mise), then you can use that to install and manage `action-validator`:\n\nNo need to declare the plugin, it\u0027s already known by mise.\n\nInstall/configure action-valida",
