Ability to select version of coverage-reporter

[ogenstad]

Yesterday our CI started to see failures after the release of coverage-reporter v0.3.8 as reported in that repo here, looking through the repo it seems that v0.3.7 resulted in failures of other pipelines

By default for at least Windows and Mac the v2 version of this action downloads either https://github.com/coverallsapp/coverage-reporter/releases/latest/download/coveralls-linux.tar.gz or https://github.com/coverallsapp/coverage-reporter/releases/latest/download/coveralls-windows.zip.

It would be nice if it was possible to pin the version of coverage-reporter that this action would use to ensure that the pipelines can continue to work if bugs are introduced to future versions of coverage-reporter.

@ogenstad Agree this would be a very helpful option. Have added it to our backlog for consideration. Thanks.

Is there any update on this? After https://github.com/coverallsapp/coverage-reporter/releases/tag/v0.6.8 was released our pipelines have started to fail with:

Run coverallsapp/github-action@v2
Run mkdir -p ~/bin/
coveralls-linux.tar.gz: OK
Run coveralls report

@ogenstad sorry for the delay and thank you for opening coverallsapp/coverage-reporter#119.

This goes in the hopper this week, along with the same ability in our other CI extension (CircleCI Orb).

I'll post updates here, and here.

@ogenstad wanted to let you know that we cut a new release of the Coveralls GitHub Action (v2.3.0) with new input option to allow pinning the version of Coverage Reporter.

When you get a chance to use it, please let us know how it works for you.

For those waiting on the same ability in our CircleCI Orb, that is WIP. Please give us another week or so.

I'm going to close this. Please re-open if any issues.
