Artifacts

We can use wildcard patterns to specify paths to upload in a workflow. We can also exclude some files/folders. Picture the following folder structure for a simple Django web app. You do not need to be a Django developer to understand the logic:

.github
├── workflows
    └── using_wildcards.yml
myapp
├── __init__.py
└── models.py
    ├──...
myproj
├── __init__.py
└── settings.py
└── log.log
    ├──...
env
├── Include
    └── django
        └── contrib
            ├──...
    ├──...

The uploaded artifacts will be deployed to the cloud, but not everyone is invited to the party:

- name: Upload build artifacts
  uses: actions/upload-artifact@v3
  with:
    name: build
    path: |
      ./*
      ./myapp/*
      !./env/*
      ./myproj/**
      !./myproj/**/*.log
      !./.github/**

Tick appropriately to indicate whether files/folders would be included or excluded.
