Python API for uploading Workflow Artifacts #3476

Hey,

I've created a package which is related to PyGithub in that it exposes the artifact upload API in Python. The artifacts API is not documented, so the python package wraps some internals of the GitHub provided Javascript APIs, to keep things simple.

• https://pypi.org/project/gha-artifact-client/
• https://github.com/lazka/gha-artifact-client

from gha_artifact_client import ArtifactClientApi

# See the project README for how to inject a token
api = ArtifactClientApi()
result = api.upload_artifact(
    "dist/package.tar.gz",
    name="build-output.tar.gz",
    expires_in=7 * 24 * 3600,
)

I know that there is a trust issue - the package contains a vendored JS blob (reproducible though), needs a runtime token to work, and artifacts are usually in a critical path of a project, so with all the supply chain issues in mind: make sure you trust me or only use it for non-important things :)

I needed this for my own project, so I can dynamically upload files in Python, and thought I'd make a proper project out of it while at it.

edit: I'm now using it in https://github.com/msys2/msys2-autobuild
