Error: Missing comment 'body' or 'body-path'.

[dmzeus]

Hello!

I got this error when I wanted to add reaction to existing comment in PR:

- name: Put starting reaction to the comment
  uses: peter-evans/create-or-update-comment@v4
  with:
    comment-id: ${{ env.NODE_ID }}
    issue-number: ${{ env.PR_NUMBER }}
    reactions: eyes

[dmzeus]

Output from GHA:

Run peter-evans/create-or-update-comment@v4
  with:
    comment-id: ***
    issue-number: ***
    reactions: eyes
    token: ***

    edit-mode: append

  env:

Hi @dmzeus

It's probably because the commend-id value is empty or null. Check that there is a value being supplied by env.NODE_ID.

See the logic here:

create-or-update-comment/src/main.ts

Lines 59 to 69 in 8da4c50

	if (inputs.commentId) {
	if (!body && !inputs.reactions) {
	throw new Error("Missing comment 'body', 'body-path', or 'reactions'.")
	}
	} else if (inputs.issueNumber) {
	if (!body) {
	throw new Error("Missing comment 'body' or 'body-path'.")
	}
	} else {
	throw new Error("Missing either 'issue-number' or 'comment-id'.")
	}

Hi! @peter-evans

Tried again with these values:

Run peter-evans/create-or-update-comment@v4
  with:
    comment-id: IC_kw*** # comment-id placed here from ${{ github.event.comment.node_id }} instead env
    reactions: eyes
    body: [bot] Task started
    edit-mode: append
    token: ***
    repository: ***
    append-separator: newline
    reactions-edit-mode: append

And got an error:
Error: Missing either 'issue-number' or 'comment-id'.
