About

GitHub Action to build and push Docker images with Buildx.

💡 See also:

Screenshot


Usage

This action uses our setup-buildx action that extends the docker build command named buildx with the full support of the features provided by Moby BuildKit builder toolkit. This includes multi-arch build, build-secrets, remote cache, etc. and different builder deployment/namespacing options.

Git context

The default behavior of this action is to use the Git context invoked by your workflow.

name: ci

on:
  push:
    branches: master

jobs:
  main:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      -
        name: Set up QEMU
        uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v1
      -
        name: Set up Docker Buildx
        uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
      -
        name: Login to DockerHub
        uses: docker/login-action@v1 
        with:
          username: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_USERNAME }}
          password: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
      -
        name: Build and push
        id: docker_build
        uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
        with:
          push: true
          tags: user/app:latest
      -
        name: Image digest
        run: echo ${{ steps.docker_build.outputs.digest }}

Building from current repository automatically uses the GitHub Token as provided by secrets so it does not need to be passed. But if you want to authenticate against another private repository, you have to use a secret named GIT_AUTH_TOKEN to be able to authenticate against it with buildx:

      -
        name: Build and push
        id: docker_build
        uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
        with:
          push: true
          tags: user/app:latest
          secrets: |
            GIT_AUTH_TOKEN=${{ secrets.MYTOKEN }}            

⚠️ Subdir for Git context is not yet supported. For the moment you can use the path context.

Path context

You can also use the PATH context alongside the actions/checkout action.

name: ci

on:
  push:
    branches: master

jobs:
  path-context:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      -
        name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      -
        name: Set up QEMU
        uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v1
      -
        name: Set up Docker Buildx
        uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
      -
        name: Login to DockerHub
        uses: docker/login-action@v1
        with:
          username: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_USERNAME }}
          password: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
      -
        name: Build and push
        uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
        with:
          context: .
          file: ./Dockerfile
          platforms: linux/amd64,linux/arm64,linux/386
          push: true
          tags: user/app:latest

Isolated builders

name: ci

on:
  push:

Advanced usage

Local registry

For testing purposes you may need to create a local registry to push images into:

Show workflow
name: ci

on:
  push:
    branches: master

jobs:
  local-registry:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    services:
      registry:
        image: registry:2
        ports:
          - 5000:5000
    steps:
      -
        name: Set up QEMU
        uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v1
      -
        name: Set up Docker Buildx
        uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
        with:
          driver-opts: network=host
      -
        name: Build and push to local registry
        uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
        with:
          push: true
          tags: localhost:5000/name/app:latest
      -
        name: Inspect
        run: |
          docker buildx imagetools inspect localhost:5000/name/app:latest          

Leverage GitHub cache

You can leverage GitHub cache using actions/cache with this action:

Show workflow
name: ci

on:
  push:
    branches: master

jobs:
  github-cache:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      -
        name: Set up Docker Buildx
        uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
      -
        name: Cache Docker layers
        uses: actions/cache@v2
        with:
          path: /tmp/.buildx-cache
          key: ${{ runner.os }}-buildx-${{ github.sha }}
          restore-keys: |
            ${{ runner.os }}-buildx-            
      -
        name: Login to DockerHub
        uses: docker/login-action@v1 
        with:
          username: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_USERNAME }}
          password: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
      -
        name: Build and push
        uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
        with:
          push: true
          tags: user/app:latest
          cache-from: type=local,src=/tmp/.buildx-cache
          cache-to: type=local,dest=/tmp/.buildx-cache

Complete workflow

If you come from v1 and you want an "automatic" tag management through Git reference and OCI Image Format Specification for labels, you will have to do it in a dedicated step for now.

The following workflow with the Prepare step will generate some outputs to handle tags and labels based on GitHub actions events. This is just an example to show many cases that you might want to use:

Show workflow
name: ci

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '0 10 * * *' # everyday at 10am
  push:
    branches:
      - '**'
    tags:
      - 'v*.*.*'
  pull_request:

  docker:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:

Troubleshooting

See TROUBLESHOOTING.md

Keep up-to-date with GitHub Dependabot

Since Dependabot has native GitHub Actions support, to enable it on your GitHub repo all you need to do is add the .github/dependabot.yml file:

version: 2
updates:
  # Maintain dependencies for GitHub Actions
  - package-ecosystem: "github-actions"
    directory: "/"
    schedule:
      interval: "daily"

Limitation

This action is only available for Linux virtual environments.
