The best IFTTT/Zapier free alternative for developers to automate your workflows based on Github actions

📝 Table of Contents

😁 About

Actionsflow helps you to automate workflows, it's the best IFTTT/Zapier free alternative for developers. With Actionsflow, you can connect your favorite apps, data, and APIs, receive notifications of actions as they occur, sync files, collect data, and more. We implemented it based on Github actions, and you use a YAML file (The configuration format is the same as Github actions) to build your workflows. If you have already written a Github actions file, it's very easy to define an Actionsflow workflow file, and you can use any Github actions as your job's steps.

You can see core concepts of Actionsflow at here.

👀 How Actionsflow worked

Actionsflow uses Github Actions' repository_dispatch event and per 5 minutes' scheduled event to run Actionsflow triggers for getting result items, and do some caching and deduplication works, then generating a standard Github actions workflow file with the trigger result, then calling act(a tool for running GitHub Actions locally) to run the built workflow files.

Learn more about How Actionsflow worked, please see Core Concepts of Actionsflow.

🏁 Getting Started

Build an Actionsflow workflow is a three-step process:

  1. Create a public Github repository by this link.

    A typical Actionsflow repository structure looks like this:

    ├── .github
    │   └── workflows
    │       └── actionsflow.yml
    ├── .gitignore
    ├── README.md
    └── workflows
    │   └── rss.yml
    │   └── webhook.yml
    └── package.json
    
  2. Define your workflow file at workflows directory

    A typical workflow file rss.yml looks like this:

    on:
      rss:
        url: https://hnrss.org/newest?points=300
    jobs:
      ifttt:
        name: Make a Request to IFTTT
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        steps:
          - uses: actionsflow/ifttt-webhook-action@v1
            with:
              event: notice
              key: ${{ secrets.IFTTT_KEY }}
              value1: ${{on.rss.outputs.title}}
              value2: ${{on.rss.outputs.contentSnippet}}
              value3: ${{on.rss.outputs.link}}
    

    For more information about the Actionsflow workflow file, see the Actionsflow workflow reference.

    You can explore Triggers List or Awesome Actionsflow Workflows to get more inspired.

  3. commit and push your updates to Github

Then, Actionsflow will run your workflows as you defined, you can view logs at your repository actions tab at Github
