This Action allows you to run Perl Critic on your codebase directly from GitHub.
Errors are reported as annotations on your check runs.

By default, Perl Critic uses a .perlcriticrc file, if it is present in the current directory.
Using the action's args, you can override any settings, as they're passed to perlcritic directly.

• GITHUB_TOKEN - Optional. If added, this action will post Perl Critic violations as a comment on your commit/PR.

To run Perl Critic on the Perl scripts located in ./lib, ./script/*, and ./tools/install.pl:

      uses: Difegue/action-perlcritic@master
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
      with:
          args: ./lib/* ./script/* ./tools/install.pl

To run Perl Critic on the the Perl scripts located in ./cgi with more brutal policies:
