Usage with nektos/act

[tcodes0]

When using nektos/act to run the action locally in a container environment, the action fails to find any files to lint and reports a success. I tried using a .sh script to call cspell . instead of the action and the problem seems to persist. Attaching the logs I have from act. The symptoms are similar to #187 #182

happy to close/move if this is not related to the action but cspell itself.

@tcodes0,

Please include a copy of the workflow.

I have not tried nektos/act, but I will check it out.

Since it doesn't think any files have changed -- Files checked: 0, Issues found: 0 in 0 files. -- it doesn't think it has anything to do.
I'm guessing you need to set incremental_files_only to false, since the action is expecting the GitHub workflow to tell it what files have changed.

What happens when you run cspell . locally?
