install-cadius-action

A Github Action for installing Cadius and allowing you to manipulate ProDOS disk images with it.

Example usage

    # This will install Cadius on your Github Runner machine
    - name: Install Cadius
      uses: digarok/install-cadius-action@master
      with:
        include_prodos: true
    
    # Now you can use it to create a new bootable ProDOS disk
    - name: Create Boot Volume
    - run: |
        cadius createvolume exampledsk.po exampledsk 140KB
        cadius addfile exampledsk.po /exampledsk/ ./PRODOS.2.4.2/PRODOS

Arguments/Inputs

This action has one input: include_prodos. By setting this to true, it will download the latest release of ProDOS (2.4.2) and extract all of the files to a directory called PRODOS.2.4.2. This allows you to use those files, if needed, in subsequent steps. So you can create a bootable disk or even add BASIC.SYSTEM to launch into AppleSoft BASIC.

About CADIUS

Cadius is a disk image program originally by the amazing French team, Brutal Deluxe. They are not involved with this Open Source version, but I do recommend you view their site for more information on Cadius and their other incredible tools and releases.
