+# inject-content
+
+Inject content into a file by appending or overwriting. Useful for writing secrets, configuration snippets, or any multi-line content into an existing file at runtime.
+
+## Inputs
+
+| Input | Required | Default | Description |
+|-------|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `content` | Yes | | Content to write into the target file |
+| `target-file` | Yes | | Path to the target file |
+| `mode` | No | `append` | Write mode: `append` adds to the end of the file; `overwrite` replaces its contents |
+
+## Usage
+
+Append secrets to a Java `.properties` file:
+
+```yaml
+- uses: https://schmalz-git.git.onstackit.cloud/schmalz/shared-actions/inject-content@inject-content-v1
+  with:
+    content: ${{ secrets.APP_PROPERTIES }}
+    target-file: src/main/resources/application.properties
+```
+
+Overwrite a `.env` file:
+
+```yaml
+- uses: https://schmalz-git.git.onstackit.cloud/schmalz/shared-actions/inject-content@inject-content-v1
+  with:
+    content: ${{ secrets.DOTENV_CONTENT }}
+    target-file: .env
+    mode: overwrite
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- Content is passed via an environment variable to avoid shell injection vulnerabilities.
+- In `append` mode a blank line is inserted between existing content and the new content. If the target file is empty or does not exist, no leading blank line is added.
+- In `overwrite` mode the file is replaced entirely; if the file does not exist it is created.
+- Both modes ensure the written content ends with a trailing newline.
+- Parent directories of `target-file` are created automatically if they do not exist.
