GitHub Actions OIDC for Python That Just Works(TM)

If you really want people to use your stuff, you should make it easy to get started as possible. For interacting with Github Actions, that means setting up OIDC, so you can prove who did what in which repo when - according to Github themselves. That means for a dev on the other end of things, it should be as easy as: ```yaml -uses atopile/do-thing@v1 ``` Hitch is, boy oh boy was this a PITA to get working in the first place. Honestly, I'd probably rather walk on lego for half an hour. Hopefully, this package should make it a piece of cake - and we all have to mint fewer tokens manually

GitHub Actions OIDC for Python That Just Works(TM) launched on April 1, 2025 with 6 votes and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

What it does

FastAPI compatible middleware to authenticate Github OIDC Tokens - atopile/fastapi-github-oidc

Want people to use your thing? Great! So we do. Make is easy! Github OIDC is a secure authentication mechanism with near-zero configuration required for many applications. from fastapi import Security , FastAPI from github_oidc . server import GithubOIDC , GithubOIDCClaims app = FastAPI () @ app . get ( "/" ) async def root ( claims : GithubOIDCClaims = Security ( GithubOIDC ())): return claims Client Side uv add "fastapi-github-oidc" from github_oidc . client import get_actions_header response = httpx . get ( "https://atopile.io" , headers = get_actions_header ( "atopile.io" ), ) response . raise_for_status () Then, in your Action: # ... jobs : my-job : permissions : id-token : write…from github.com

    It has been almost 10 years since I started the opencv-python packaging project. Scaling it to more than 100 million downloads as a side project showed me how much ease of installation and proper package distribution matter to users. It gave the computer vision ecosystem a noticeable boost. Now I have a new idea that I hope can help even more people across the broader software engineering world. A while ago, I realized I kept giving the same advice to teammates and friends when they ran into a programming issue they couldn't easily solve: go to GitHub and look at how others solved it. There…

    ActionsPanel – Manually Trigger Your GitHub Actions2020 · ▲57

    Hi all! I wanted to share a small project that I've been working on with a buddy. https://www.actionspanel.app/ One of the problems that currently exists with GitHub Actions is the fact that there is no way to easily trigger your Actions unless you cause some kind of GitHub event. This could be pushing a new commit, or creating an issue on a repository. But if you just want to run an arbitrary action, there's not currently a good way to do that. This is a well known feature request: https://github.community/t5/GitHub-Actions/GitHub-Actions-Ma... GitHub…

  • I built a visual node system for CI/CD that supports GitHub ActionsFeb 2026 · actionforge.dev · ▲18

    Hey HN, About a year ago I shared a first MVP of a visual node-based system for CI/CD pipelines that I've been very passionate about. I've been building on it since, and it's now live. I've always liked building pipelines and workflows, but I've never liked writing YAML for anything more than simple linear tasks. Branching, conditions, loops, or trying to just run certain things in parallel always gets messy. So I built Actionforge, a visual node system to tackle some of these pain points. Instead of writing YAML yourself, you build workflows as graphs. While Actionforge still uses YAML…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
