Slack build notification

This action will post a notification to a Slack channel, and subsequent calls to this action can update that notification to reflect a new status.

Getting Started

To set up the action and send the first message, you can do the following:

- name: Prepare
  uses: saucal/action-slack-notification@v1
  with:
    token: "SLACK_BOT_TOKEN"
    channel: "XXXXXXX"
    status: 'Preparing :loading:'
    commit-repo: "${{ github.repository }}"
    commit-branch: ${{ github.ref_name }}
    commit-author: ${{ github.triggering_actor }}
    commit-message: "..."

After, you can run something like follows, to update the status of the build

- name: Set message
  uses: saucal/action-slack-notification@v1
  with:
    status: "Building :large_yellow_circle:"

And finally, after you're done, you can signal the final status as follows

- name: Signal final status to slack
  if: ${{ always() }} # THIS IS KEY!
  uses: saucal/action-slack-notification@v1
  with:
    final-status: "${{ job.status }}"
