🟢 Approval recommended
The implementation, documentation, and tests are consistent and correctly expose the requested Go environment values as action outputs without introducing risky behavior changes.
Pull request overview
This PR enhances the actions/setup-go action by exposing a curated set of go env values as step outputs, allowing workflows to reference common Go paths and target information without running extra shell steps.
Changes:
- Add
go env -jsonparsing and export selected Go environment values as action outputs (including a computedgo-bin-pathfallback). - Define new output keys in
src/constants.tsand document them inaction.ymlanddocs/advanced-usage.md. - Add unit tests for the new parsing/output behavior and extend CI workflow to print the outputs across OSes.
