This action sets up a java environment for use in actions by:
- optionally downloading and caching a requested version of java by version and adding to PATH. Default downloads are populated from the [Zulu Community distribution of OpenJDK](http://static.azul.com/zulu/bin/)
- registering problem matchers for error output
# Usage
See [action.yml](action.yml)
Basic:
```yaml
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v1
- uses: actions/setup-java@v1
with:
java-version: '9.0.4' # The JDK version to make available on the path. Takes a whole or semver JDK version, or 1.x syntax (e.g. 1.8 => Jdk 8.x). To specify a specific version for JDK 8 or older use the following pattern (8.0.x)
java-package: jdk # (jre, jdk, or jdk+fx) - defaults to jdk
architecture: x64 # (x64 or x86) - defaults to x64
- run: java -cp java HelloWorldApp
```
From local file:
```yaml
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v1
- uses: actions/setup-java@v1
with:
java-version: '4.0.0'
architecture: x64
jdkFile: <path to jdkFile> # Optional - jdkFile to install java from. Useful for versions not found on Zulu Community CDN
- run: java -cp java HelloWorldApp
```
