  chore: bump @actions deps #222 may solve this problem

Description

The set-output command is deprecated and we need to upgrade @actions/core to v1.10.0

Currently, this error will show in every action using this action:

The `set-output` command is deprecated and will be disabled soon. Please upgrade to using Environment Files.

Workflow code

This is just my use case. I believe other cases have the same problem.

- uses: actions-rs/toolchain@v1
  with:
    profile: minimal
    toolchain: ${{ matrix.rust }}
    override: true

Action output

Following is the raw log

Expected behavior

Upgrade @actions/core to v1.10.0 or above (is exist)

We might wait a long time here, given that this project has been unmaintained for almost 2 years: #216

[duskmoon314]

For people who want to try an alternative: Currently, I am testing invoke rustup directly in GitHub actions and it seems to be working fine. Also, there is dtolnay's rust-toolchain action. (Maybe named as dtolnay/rust-toolchain)

Same, I added a small example here.

@svartalf 🙏 (could you please ping someone else if you don’t have capacity?)

[AliSajid]

@svartalf I'd be happy to take a look at this and send a pull request

@AliSajid #222 should solve it

Bump^ does anyone know the status of these changes?

Node.js 12 actions are deprecated. Please update the following actions to use Node.js 16: actions-rs/toolchain@v1. For more information see: https://github.blog/changelog/2022-09-22-github-actions-all-actions-will-begin-running-on-node16-instead-of-node12/.

Warning are still being thrown in actions.

I've stopped using these actions and rely on dtolnay/rust-toolchain instead. I recommend the same.

[marcsantiago]

@AliSajid thank you! Just changed out that 1 line in the actions file and everything works all the same.

[Bromeon]

I don't know why everyone wants an external action for this, most use cases simply need a rustup command 🙂

Runners come with rustup installed, here's a usage example I posted a while ago.
