## Usage

### Inputs

| Name | Required | Description | Type | Default |
| ---- |:--------:| ----------- | ---- | ------- |
| tool | **true** | Tools to install (comma-separated list) | String | |

### Example workflow

```yaml
- uses: taiki-e/install-action@v1
  with:
    tool: cargo-hack
```

You can use the shorthand (if you do not need to pin the versions of this action and the installed tool):

```yaml
- uses: taiki-e/install-action@cargo-hack
```

To install a specific version, use `@version` syntax:

```yaml
- uses: taiki-e/install-action@v1
  with:
    tool: cargo-hack@0.5.10
```

To install multiple tools:

```yaml
- uses: taiki-e/install-action@v1
  with:
    tool: cargo-hack,cargo-minimal-versions
```

Or:

```yaml
- uses: taiki-e/install-action@cargo-hack
- uses: taiki-e/install-action@cargo-minimal-versions
```

## Security

When installing the tool from GitHub Releases, this action will download the tool or its installer from GitHub Releases using HTTPS with tlsv1.2+. This is basically considered to be the same level of security as [the recommended installation of rustup](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install).

If you want a higher level of security, consider working on [#1](https://github.com/taiki-e/install-action/issues/1).
