GitHub的Markdown目前不支持直接[TOC]渲染文章的目录，有些README则需要这样的效果，可以借助外部工具进行生成，也可以借助 GitHub Actions 自动生成，本文就介绍这种方式。

所用Actions：TOC Generator (opens new window)

使用配置其实非常简单，基本上阅读完官方介绍文档就可以上手使用了，这里说一两个需要注意的地方。

首先需要在将要生成目录的文件内，指定目录生成位置，e.g. README.md，在要生成的地方添加如下内容：

<!-- START doctoc -->
<!-- END doctoc -->

项目运行之后，会将目录添加在如上两段注释的中间。

然后添加Actions配置文件，e.g. .github/workflows/toc.yml：

on: push
name: TOC Generator
jobs:
  generateTOC:
    name: TOC Generator
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: technote-space/toc-generator@v4

接着需要调整下项目的Actions权限，在GitHub上点击settings--> actions --> General --> Workflow permissions --> 选择 Read and write permissions。

配置调整完成之后，就可以push项目看效果了，当然这里也可以通过GitHub_Token的方式认证，就不赘述了。
