Support token auth for easy usages through CI/CD

[Mahmoudgalalz]

Hello @sintaxi I'm asking if you are interested to support a GitHub Action for Auto deployment, I'm building one for general purpose

so if you are interested to support it it will be very great.

also Tagging the issue it will be more easy if we have a token to authenticate

[Mahmoudgalalz]

when I explored the code, I found there's another way to auth which is a token, and there's another flag that gives you your token, so I will be finishing working on the action today.

waiting to hear from you

initially I build this and its work, there's some features will be added, like creating a 200.html and inject it to the dist forlder
another feature, like usage of random domains, and 2sub-domain for both dev, and PR

this the usage of the action

on:
  push:
    branches: [ main ]

jobs:
  build_and_deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Build the code
    steps:
      - name: checkout the project
        uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - name: install deps
        uses: actions/setup-node@v3
        with:
          node-version: v16.x
      - name: build the project
        run: |
         npm install -g pnpm
         pnpm i
         npm run build
         
      - name: deploying to surge
        uses: mahmoudgalalz/[email protected]
        with:
          domain: 'ghtop.surge.sh'
          path: './dist'
        env:
          SURGE_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.SURGE_TOKEN }}

@Mahmoudgalalz thanks for sharing

I kept looking for smth like that, and I was going to implement the same feature on my own, so I think I should suggest adding my own current feature into it

It is already possible to use a token to perform actions with the surge CLI. All commands support the --token <token_value> option.
