Setup

GitHub Auth Token

A GitHub auth token is required to post a comment on github. I recommend creating a separate "bot" GitHub account with access to your repos.

1. Navigate to Personal access tokens on GitHub
2. Click "Generate new token" and generate a new token (with repo access if your repo is private)
3. Open the CircleCI project settings
4. Navigate to Build Settings > Environment variables
5. Add a new variable called GH_AUTH_TOKEN with the new token

For subsequent projects:

1. Open the CircleCI project settings
2. Navigate to Build Settings > Environment variables
3. Click "Import Variable(s)"
4. Select a project that you've previous added GH_AUTH_TOKEN to
5. Click the checkbox next to GH_AUTH_TOKEN and import

CircleCI Artifact API Token

To access artifacts for private repos, a CircleCI API token is required.

1. Open the CircleCI project settings
2. Navigate to Permissions > API Permissions
3. Click "Create Token"

• Select "Build Artifacts" from scope dropdown
• Name the token "artifacts" (or whatever you prefer)

1. Navigate to Build Settings > Environment variables
2. Add a new variable called CIRCLE_CI_API_TOKEN with the new token

Run Jest with Coverage reporting

Add to your package.json:

npm install --save-dev circleci-coverage-github-reporter

If you're using Jest, I suggest adding a test script along these lines:

    "scripts": {
        "test-ci": "jest --ci --silent --coverage"
    }

This will generate a coverage in coverage/

CircleCI configuration

Update your .circleci/config.yml:

general:
  artifacts:
    - "coverage/lcov-report"

jobs:
  build:
    steps:
      # … other steps (npm/yarn install, lint, etc)

      - run:
          name: Test
          command: npm run test-ci

      # Store coverage artifacts so they can be browsed and be diffed by other builds
      - store_artifacts:
          path: coverage
          destination: coverage

      - run:
          name: Post coverage comment to GitHub
          command: npx circleci-coverage-github-reporter
