Command Hooks

Inject custom shell commands into the standard build workflow at specific points.

Format

- name: example hook
  hook: |
    step:
      - before
    commands: |
      echo "hello world!"

Hook Points

Step	When it runs
before	Before the build step starts.
after	After the build step completes.

Usage

Pass hooks inline via the commandHooks parameter or reference files from the .game-ci/hooks/ directory via customHookFiles.

- uses: game-ci/orchestrator@v1.0.0
  with:
    providerStrategy: aws
    customHookFiles: my-hook
    targetPlatform: StandaloneLinux64
    gitPrivateToken: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

Place hook files at .game-ci/hooks/my-hook.yaml in your repository.
