JavaDoc publisher

Yes, it is possible with this code in your GitHub Actions directory:

name: Deploy Javadoc

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - master
      - main

jobs:
  publish:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Deploy JavaDoc 🚀
        uses: MathieuSoysal/[email protected]
        with:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          javadoc-branch: javadoc
          java-version: 17
          target-folder: javadoc

Add the above YAML file to /.github/workflows/your-file.yaml inside your GitHub repository. It publishes the JavaDoc automatically when you publish to the "master" or "main" branch. Your JavaDoc is pushed onto the javadoc branch, and is deployed with GitHub Pages.

Don't forget to enable GitHub Pages on your GitHub repo settings
