Update generate_documentation.yml #27
Conversation
WalkthroughThe GitHub Actions workflow for generating documentation was updated: action versions were bumped, step names revised, Node/Python setup modernized, npm install/build logic adjusted, and multiple conditional guards were added for presence checks and success gating. Changes

Upgrade actions/checkout to v4 now.
actions/checkout@v3 still targets the deprecated Node 16 runtime, which GitHub stopped running in March 2025. This workflow will fail once executed on current runners. Bump to v4 (Node 20) to restore compatibility.

Move actions/setup-python to v5 for Node 20 support.
Version 4 of actions/setup-python is also locked to Node 16 and no longer runs on GitHub-hosted runners. Upgrade to v5 to avoid immediate workflow failures.

In .github/workflows/generate_documentation.yml around lines 25 to 35, the
workflow uses actions/setup-python@v4 which is locked to Node 16 and will fail
on current GitHub-hosted runners; update the step to use actions/setup-python@v5
(preserving the python-version: "3.10" and the subsequent dependency-install
logic) so the action runs on Node 20-compatible runners and the workflow no
longer fails.

Update actions/setup-node to v4 to keep the workflow runnable.
actions/setup-node@v3 is deprecated alongside Node 16 support. Switching to v4 (Node 20) is required for the step to execute successfully.
