The free IFTTT/Zapier alternative for developers to automate their workflows based on GitHub actions, option to run self-hosted without GitHub as well
Actionsflow helps you automate workflows - it's a free IFTTT/Zapier alternative for developers. With Actionsflow you can connect your favorite apps, data, and APIs, receive notifications of actions as they occur, sync files, collect data, and more. We implemented it based on Github actions, and you use a YAML file to build your workflows. The configuration format is the same as Github actions, which makes it easy for you to get going if you've explored Github actions before. You can also use any Github actions as your job's steps.
You can learn more about the core concepts of Actionsflow here.
If you want a lighter, simpler workflow that doesn't rely on Github Actions, consider Denoflow, another workflow tool made by me, based on Deno with YAML , you can try it at an online playground
Full documentation for Actionsflow lives on the website.
You can also view it on Github if you prefer.
Actionsflow uses Github Actions' repository_dispatch event and scheduled event every 5 minutes to run Actionsflow triggers. Those triggers generate result items, which are cached and deduplicated, generating a standard Github actions workflow file with the trigger result. Finally, the workflows are executed using act (a tool for running GitHub Actions locally).
To learn more about how Actionsflow works, please see Core Concepts of Actionsflow.

workflows directoryA typical workflow file rss.yml looks like this:
on:

}For more information about the Actionsflow workflow file, see the Actionsflow workflow reference.
You can find examples and inspiration on the Trigger List and on Awesome Actionsflow Workflows.
Pushing to Github makes Actionsflow run the workflows you defined. You can view logs at your repository's actions tab on Github.
For more information about getting up and running, see Getting Started.
