Question: db autonomous-database generate-wallet

[norman-aberin]

Can we use this GitHub plugin to generate a wallet using the oci-cli. To be exact: db autonomous-database generate-wallet?

[Djelibeybi]

You should be able to run any command with this Action that you you can using oci manually, though you'll need to work out how to securely retrieve the wallet once it has been created.

I am currently facing the following issue when downloading the wallet, any pointers as to how to resolve the following?

Ah, I think I knokw what's happening. The action expects a JSON response and not a binary file so it's failing to parse the response from the API. So, my previous comment was only half-right: the command works, it's just that the action doesn't handle the response correctly.

In the meantime, you can probably work around this by using the action to install the CLI but then run it manualliy in the next step so that it doesn't munge the response. Something like this:

- name: Install OCI CLI
  uses: oracle-actions/run-oci-cli-command@v1.1.1
  id: install-oci-cli
  with:
    command: 'os ns get'

- name: Generate Autonomous Database Wallet
  id: generate-adb-wallet
  run: |
    oci db autonomous-database generate-wallet --autonomous-database-id ${{ secrets.ADB_OCID }} --password ${{ secrets.ADB_WALLET_PWD }} --file ./wallet.zip

You'll need to do something with wallet.zip after this.

I haven't tested this, so there may be typos so this should just be used as a conceptual guide to how a workaround might be possible. Let me know how it goes.

[norman-aberin]

Would it be fixed/patched?

[Djelibeybi]

There are no plans to add this functionality to the action at this time, no.
