+# Typesense GitHub action
+
+## Introduction
+
+This GitHub Action starts a Typesense stand-alone server on the default port `8108`.
+
+## Usage
+
+```yaml
+name: Run tests
+
+on: [push]
+
+jobs:
+  build:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    strategy:
+      matrix:
+        go-version: [1.16.x, 1.17.x]
+        typesense-version: [0.22.0, 0.23.1]
+
+    steps:
+      - name: Git checkout
+        uses: actions/checkout@v2
+
+      - name: Use Node.js ${{ matrix.node-version }}
+        uses: actions/setup-node@v1
+        with:
+          node-version: ${{ matrix.node-version }}
+
+      - name: Start Typesense
+        uses: jirevwe/typesense-github-action@1.0.0
+        with:
+          typesense-version: ${{ matrix.typesense-version }}
+          typesense-api-key: some-api-key
+
+      - name: Set up Go
+        uses: actions/setup-go@v2
+        with:
+          go-version: ${{ matrix.go-version }}
+
+      - name: Cache go modules
+        uses: actions/cache@v1
+        with:
+          path: ~/go/pkg/mod
+          key: ${{ runner.os }}-go-${{ hashFiles('go.sum') }}
+          restore-keys: ${{ runner.os }}-go-${{ hashFiles('go.sum') }}
+
+      - name: Check out code
+        uses: actions/checkout@v2
+
+      - name: Get and verify dependencies
+        run: go mod download && go mod verify
+
+      - name: Build app to make sure there are zero issues
+        run: go build -o convoy ./cmd
+
+      - name: Go vet
+        run: go vet ./...
+
+      - name: Run tests
+        run: go test -v ./...
+```
+
+### Using Typesense on a Custom Port
+
+You can start the Typesense instance on a custom port using the `typesense-port` input:
+
+```yaml
+name: Run tests
+
+on: [push]
+
+jobs:
+  build:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    strategy:
+      matrix:
+        go-version: [1.16.x, 1.17.x]
+        typesense-version: [0.22.0, 0.23.1]
+
+    steps:
+      - name: Start Typesense
+        uses: jirevwe/typesense-github-action@1.0.0
+        with:
+          typesense-version: ${{ matrix.typesense-version }}
+          typesense-port: 20863
+
+      - name: …
+```
+
+### Using a Custom Container Name
+
+This GitHub Action provides a Typesense Docker container. The default container name is `typesense`. It can be helpful to customize the container name. For example, when running multiple Typesense instances in parallel. You can customize the container name using the `typesense-container-name` input:
+
+```yaml
+name: Run tests
+
+on: [push]
+
+jobs:
+  build:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    strategy:
+      matrix:
+        go-version: [1.16.x, 1.17.x]
+        typesense-version: [0.22.0, 0.23.1]
+
+    steps:
+      - name: Start Typesense
+        uses: jirevwe/typesense-github-action@1.0.0
+        with:
+          typesense-version: ${{ matrix.typesense-version }}
+          typesense-container-name: typesense-custom-name
+
+      - name: …
+```
