gh-workflow:tldr:cc2b4

gh-workflow: Display the YAML definition of a specific workflow.
$ gh workflow view ${select} --yaml
try on your machine

This command is using the "gh" command-line interface to view a workflow file in YAML format.

Here's a breakdown of the different elements in the command:

  • gh is the command-line interface tool for GitHub. It allows you to perform various GitHub-related actions from the terminal.
  • workflow view is a command within the "gh" tool that allows you to view the contents of a workflow file.
  • ${select} is a placeholder indicating that you need to provide the name or ID of the workflow you want to view. You should replace ${select} with the actual name or ID of the workflow.
  • --yaml is an option that specifies the format in which you want to view the workflow. In this case, it is set to YAML format.

So when you run this command with the appropriate workflow name or ID, it will display the contents of the workflow file in YAML format in the terminal.
