Would be really useful to update IPNS record in addition to updating DNSLink. Or instead.

This requires figuring out how key management should work in CI contexts. Would entire publishing key be a secret defined in settings of a GitHub repo and passed to the action?

@olizilla any prior art or thoughts about his?

This action does the work by sending the content to a remote ipfs-cluster. This was deliberate so we offload the IPFS work to a long running node. Setting a DNSLink or updating an IPNS record could be seperate action / entrypoint. Ideally you'd just do it by exposing a pinning api on a remote node behind basic auth or similar. 💁‍♂️

For completeness, it's worth noting that this action does not handle setting dnslinks, but it does provide the CID as an output, so you can pass it to dnslink or IPNS setting step like https://github.com/filecoin-project/specs/blob/71f37208a1f4f56b33ea307d7cbdb4b06996b115/.github/workflows/main.yml#L38-L44

Ack, makes sense 👍

Should we keep this issue open until we have an established way of doing IPNS updates on CI? Eg. a separate action.
(Then we would update README in this repo pointing at the thing)
