Magento 2 coding standards : phpcs –standard=PHPCompatibility github action to check extension code

Today I came across a really useful set of tools. Magento 2 github actions:

https://github.com/extdn/github-actions-m2

Which means you can run a github action workflows to scan your code for Magento coding standard. For example:

https://github.com/yireo/Yireo_Webp2/blob/master/.github/workflows/extdn-static-tests.yml

.github/workflows/extdn-static-tests.yml

name: ExtDN Static Tests
on: [push]

jobs:
  static:
    name: Static Code Analysis
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: extdn/github-actions-m2/magento-coding-standard@master

Pretty amazing. However I would also like a github action to scan Magento 2 extension using PHPCompatibility standard for a defined set of php versions.

For example locally the command would look a bit like this

vendor/squizlabs/php_codesniffer/bin/phpcs --standard=PHPCompatibility --runtime-set testVersion 7.0-7.4 --colors --warning-severity=0 --report=full,summary --extensions=php,phtml ./

I’ve had a few goes but I can’t get the syntax right.

Has someone somewhere got a github action which does the above?
