Cannot specify --font-path

[msakuta]

Hi, it seems this example action in the description here doesn't work.

      with:
        source_file: euler-lagrange-jp.typ
        - name: Typst
          uses: lvignoli/typst-action@main
          with:
            source_file: main.typ
            options: |
              --font-path
              fonts

In my pipeline, the actual command executed seems like this (omitting irrelevant parameters to docker)

7   docker <blah..blah...> "euler-lagrange-jp.typ" "--font-path
8   fonts
9   "

which suggests that it's supposed to be like below, but the newline separated parameters actually go to the next command.

7   docker <blah..blah...> "euler-lagrange-jp.typ" "--font-path" "fonts"

Hi @msakuta,
The action is out of date with the current typst CLI.
I need to take some time to update, but this will not happen in the coming weeks.
In the meantime, I suggest you try setup-typst as a replacement :)

Hello,

I just opened a PR, I basically just swapped the option so that options comes after the "compile filename.typ" part.

Hope this helps!

You can specify the environment variable like this:

- name: Typst
   uses: lvignoli/typst-action@main
      env:
         TYPST_FONT_PATHS: ./fonts
      with:
          source_file: |
             ...

How do we make sure that font installed on the CI host is available to typst container?

I had to do:

      - name: Install fonts
        run: |
          sudo apt-get update
          sudo apt-get install -y fonts-ibm-plex
      - name: Build with Typst
        run: |
          docker run --rm \
            -v ${{ github.workspace }}:/work \
            -v /usr/share/fonts:/fonts \
            -w /work \
            ghcr.io/typst/typst:latest \
            compile --font-path /fonts document.typ
