This action was broken by the major Zenodo release of Oct 2023.

Publish a zenodo draft with this github action.

This action:

1. Replaces the metadata of a deposition draft with the contents of .zenodo.metadata using the json format from Zenodo's API
2. Removes files already attached to the deposition, since unwanted ones might have been carried from the last version.
3. Uploads files and paths found in the provided whitelist file; whitelist_uploads defaults to .zenodo_whitelist_uploads.
4. Publishes the draft

When first setting up this action, you will need an existing Deposition which belongs to your Zenodo account. If you already have a Deposition that you were managing manually, or with the Github plugin, you should set up the zenodo-new-version action in your workflow to run before this one. Creation of a new version is kept in a separate action to ensure that users of the action have a chance to use the pre-reserved DOI of the new version in other actions before publishing. An example use case is to

1. Run the zenodo-new-version action which
   1. Creates a new draft of your deposition
   2. Prereserves a DOI
   3. Optionally replaces the prior DOI with the pre-reserved one
2. Create a PDF or other output format from the template.
3. Run this action

If you are setting up a new deposition, it is easiest to:

1. Start the creation of a new publication on zenodo.org
2. Add the required fields
3. Prereserve a DOI in the UI
4. Add the prereserved DOI where needed in your documents
5. Run this action
6. Add the zenodo-new-version action to your workflow to create a draft before running this action in following runs.

A basic example using this action is the following which creates a new version of a zenodo deposition, and publishes every time that a txt md or csv file are changed in the main branch of the repository.

  push:
    branches: [ main ]
