Deploy Teal App

What to do

Write app.R and data.R from the previous step's artifact, then push to GitHub. That's it.

Inputs

Read from previous step outputs (available in your context as workflow variables):

• build-app.appCode — R code for app.R
• build-app.dataCode — R code for data.R
• build-app.modules — list of modules (for commit message)
• build-app.summary — app description (for commit message)
• define-requirements.githubRepo — target repo (e.g. filipstachura/tealflow-demo-app)

Steps

1. Write files

mkdir -p /output/app

Write the appCode content to /output/app/app.R. Write the dataCode content to /output/app/data.R.

2. Push to GitHub

cd /output/app
git init
git checkout -b main
git add app.R data.R
git commit -m "feat: Teal app generated by TealFlow"
git remote add origin "https://x-access-token:${GITHUB_TOKEN}@github.com/REPO.git"
git push -u origin main --force

Replace REPO with the value from define-requirements.githubRepo.

3. Return result

Return the GitHub repo URL as your result.

Rules

• Do NOT download datasets. Do NOT set up renv. Do NOT validate the app. Just write files and push.
• Do NOT modify the code from the artifact.
• If GITHUB_TOKEN is missing, write the files and report that push was skipped.
