initialize and update build your app when @screenly/edge-apps is listed under
dependencies, not only under devDependencies.initialize and update run Screenly CLI 26.9.0 instead of whichever CLI release is newest, so a
new CLI release doesn’t change how your app deploys until you move to a newer version of the
actions.Reusable checks, initialize, and update workflows hold the whole deploy setup, so an Edge App repo's workflow files only pin a version and pass SCREENLY_API_TOKEN.
The update workflow runs 1 deploy per environment, keeps only the newest waiting run, and never cancels a deploy that's already running.
initialize stops if an Edge App with the same name already exists, and both actions stop with an error when package.json can't be parsed.
initialize stops when the environment's id variable is already set, and puts the new Edge App's id in the job summary as soon as the app is created.
initialize and update build any app whose package.json has a build script and deploy it from dist/, whether or not it uses the Edge Apps library.
