Migrate from deprecated redhat-actions/oc-installer to openshift-tools-installer #72

Description

@snecklifter

redhat-actions/oc-installer has been deprecated in favor of redhat-actions/openshift-tools-installer.

This repo has one or more GitHub Actions workflows that reference redhat-actions/oc-installer. While existing workflows will continue to work, the action now emits a deprecation warning and will no longer receive updates. The download mirror it points to has not been updated since December 2020.

Migration

Replace:

- uses: redhat-actions/oc-installer@v1
  with:
    oc_version: '4.6'

With:

- uses: redhat-actions/openshift-tools-installer@v2
  with:
    oc: '4'

Why migrate?

  • Semver ranges — pin 4 instead of an exact version
  • 18+ tools — install oc, helm, kn, tkn, yq, and more in a single step
  • arm64 support — works on Apple Silicon and ARM runners
  • Cross-workflow caching — faster CI runs
  • Active maintenance — Node 24 runtime, current dependencies

See the openshift-tools-installer README for full documentation.
