Python for Actions

This repository contains the code and scripts that we use to build Python packages used in runner-images and accessible through the setup-python Action. File versions-manifest.json contains the list of available and released versions.

Caution: this is prepared for and only permitted for use by actions runner-images and setup-python action.

Status: Currently under development and in use for beta and preview actions. This repo is undergoing rapid changes.

Some versions are pre-installed on runner-images images. More versions will (soon!) be available to install on-the-fly through the setup-python action.

Adding new versions

We are trying to build and release new versions of Python as soon as they are released. Please open an issue in actions/setup-python if any versions are missing.
