Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nektos/act/issues/1005

Describe feature

Currently using act 0.2.25, I was wondering if there is already in the roadmap the target to support 'uses' in composite actions.
Source: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/creating-actions/metadata-syntax-for-github-actions#runsstepsuses

It currently works when I launch it on Github but with act I get the error

[xxx/yyy]   ❌  Failure - test
Error: (StepID: Init step): Unexpected value 'uses'

Thanks for your answers and your great work on act!

It is already implemented, but not yet released: https://github.com/nektos/act/pull/793

To try it out, you can install one of these snapshots from the above linked PR: https://github.com/nektos/act/actions/runs/1612711228
Or you can use go to install from master: https://github.com/nektos/act/wiki/Installation#go-multiple-platforms or clone and build it yourself: https://github.com/nektos/act#manually-building-from-source

@ZauberNerd oh sweet! I'm gonna try that. I'm currently learning a bit Go to start digging into act code, 'cause I use this tool a lot and i love it. Thanks for the detailed answer. I close the ticket, I'll give a feedback if I managed to get it running.
Can't wait 0.2.26 :)
