Post Github Release with github action

[liangyuanpeng]

Now, github release of Jetcd staying at jetcd-0.6.1 , Let us try to restore jetcd's github release. In order to reduce maintenance pressure, use github action to automate the release process.

let me work for it if possible.

Any thought? @lburgazzoli

unfortunately a release cannot be fully automated (unless you want to store gpg keys on github) so I'm doing it manually.
ideally, the gradle build script can do that

Some Note that i just talking about github release and not release java jar.

[lburgazzoli]

Yes but since the release is a manual process, then the github release can ideally be done by the gradle build script.
Not sure how that could be done by a GitHub action, mind explaining what you have in mind ?

[liangyuanpeng]

Create a new github release with github action when a new tag of jetcd-* is pushed.

on:
  push:
    tags:
      - "jetcd-*"
      
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: Create Release and Upload Release Asset
      uses: softprops/action-gh-release@v1
...

Does it make sense?

[lburgazzoli]

but that won't include any java artifact so in such case it could work, yes
as a side note, instead of using an external action, you can use the gh command line too
