# Migrating Coveralls Report from Travis-CI to GitHub Actions

> **Disclaimer**: This is a very specific problem. It is relevant only if you had a [travis ci](https://travis-ci.org/) pipeline setup for your GitHub repository and using `nyc` and `coveralls`, and thinking of migrating to GitHub actions.

## The Past
I followed this setup guide: [Integrating with coveralls.io
](https://github.com/istanbuljs/nyc/blob/master/docs/setup-coveralls.md)

## The Problem
I thought of migrating the build pipeline to GitHub Actions, but was hindered by this error:
```
> js-big-decimal@1.3.3 coverage /home/runner/work/js-big-decimal/js-big-decimal
> nyc report --reporter=text-lcov | coveralls


/home/runner/work/js-big-decimal/js-big-decimal/node_modules/coveralls/bin/coveralls.js:19
      throw err;
      ^
Bad response: 422 {"message":"Couldn't find a repository matching this job.","error":true}
(Use `node --trace-uncaught ...` to show where the exception was thrown)
npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
```

Now time to reveal the solution:

## The Solution:
- Edit the coverage script in package.json to use the default reporter of `lcov`
```
"coverage": nyc report --reporter=lcov
```
- Modify the pipeline to use the official Coveralls stage
```
      - name: Test
        run: |
          npm run ci-test
          npm run coverage
        
      - name: Publish to coveralls.io
        uses: coverallsapp/github-action@v1.1.2
        with:
          github-token: ${{ github.token }}
```
