# Linux Collect Dependencies

A small Gitea Action for collecting the non-system shared library dependencies required by a Linux executable.

The action uses `ldd` to recursively find dependencies and copies the required libraries into an artifact directory while skipping common Linux system libraries.

## Usage

```yaml
- name: Collect dependencies
  uses: https://git.omgitsalexl.me/omgitsalexl/linux-collect-dependencies@v1.0.1
  with:
    executable: path/to/my-app
    output: artifacts
```

### Inputs

| Input | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `executable` | Yes | | Path to the executable to inspect |
| `output` | No | `artifacts` | Directory where dependencies are copied |

The executable itself is not copied. Add it to the output directory separately if you want to package it with the collected libraries.

## Requirements

The Linux runner must have `bash`, `ldd`, and standard GNU utilities available.

## Example

```yaml
- name: Copy executable
  run: |
    mkdir -p artifacts
    cp .build/release/my-app artifacts/my-app

- name: Collect dependencies
  uses: https://git.omgitsalexl.me/omgitsalexl/linux-collect-dependencies@v1.0.1
  with:
    executable: .build/release/my-app
```

The resulting `artifacts` directory can then be uploaded or packaged by the rest of your workflow.
