GitHub Action to build docusaurus site and Sync S3 Bucket

This is a customized version of the s3-sync-action that uses the vanilla AWS CLI to sync a directory (either from your repository or generated during your workflow) with a remote S3 bucket. It also runs the command: yarn run build to build the docusaurs site for deployment.

Usage

Configuration

The following settings must be passed as environment variables as shown in the example. Sensitive information, especially AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, should be set as encrypted secrets — otherwise, they'll be public to anyone browsing your repository's source code and CI logs.
