Overview

ABT is a GitHub Actions-based automation system designed to run syntax checks and build validations for different programming languages.
It helps teams prevent broken builds, syntax errors, and integration issues before code is merged into the main branch.


Purpose

The primary goal of ABT is to:

  • Maintain consistent code quality
  • Reduce time spent on manual code reviews for syntax issues
  • Enable multi-language projects to be verified in a single pipeline

Features

  • Multi-language support — from Python to obscure languages like Nemerle or SNOBOL
  • Automatic syntax validation on every push or pull request
  • Zero manual setup after integration
  • Customizable commands for each language
  • Lightweight and fast execution

How It Works

  1. A developer pushes code or opens a pull request
  2. ABT scans the repository for supported file types
  3. For each detected language, ABT runs the defined syntax check command
  4. The workflow passes only if all checks succeed

Supported Languages

ABT supports over 100 programming languages, including:

  • Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, C, C++, Go, PHP, Ruby, Rust, Swift, Kotlin
  • Functional languages: Haskell, OCaml, Elixir, Clojure
  • Scripting: Bash, PowerShell, Perl, Lua
  • Many more — see languages for the full list.

Benefits

  • Early detection of syntax errors
  • Consistent CI/CD across multiple stacks
  • Time savings for developers and reviewers
  • Improved code reliability

Usage Examples

  1. Add .github/workflows/abt.yml to your repo
  2. Commit and push changes
  3. ABT will run automatically on GitHub Actions
