Description
Description:
Please add outputs to the action, such as npm-path. The setup-python action does this: https://github.com/actions/setup-python/blob/f677139bbe7f9c59b41e40162b753c062f5d49a3/action.yml#L34
At a minimum, printing the locations to the log would be helpful.
Justification:
I need to provide the npm path to CMake and this would make it convenient as it requires a full path.
Are you willing to submit a PR?
Yes, but I'm not familiar with the code base.
