## About
GitHub Action to build and push Docker images with [Buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx)
with full support of the features provided by [Moby BuildKit](https://github.com/moby/buildkit)
builder toolkit. This includes multi-platform build, secrets, remote cache, etc.
and different builder deployment/namespacing options.

## Usage
In the examples below we are also using 3 other actions:
* [`setup-buildx`](https://github.com/docker/setup-buildx-action) action will
create and boot a builder using by default the [`docker-container` driver](https://docs.docker.com/build/building/drivers/docker-container/).
This is **not required but recommended** using it to be able to build
multi-platform images, export cache, etc.
* [`setup-qemu`](https://github.com/docker/setup-qemu-action) action can be
useful if you want to add emulation support with QEMU to be able to build
against more platforms.
* [`login`](https://github.com/docker/login-action) action will take care to
log in against a Docker registry.
### Git context
By default, this action uses the [Git context](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/build/#git-repositories),
so you don't need to use the [`actions/checkout`](https://github.com/actions/checkout/)
action to check out the repository as this will be done directly by [BuildKit](https://github.com/moby/buildkit).
The git reference will be based on the [event that triggered your workflow](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/events-that-trigger-workflows)
and will result in the following context: `https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>.git#<ref>`.
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
branches:
- 'main'
jobs:
docker:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Set up QEMU
uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v2
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2
-
name: Login to Docker Hub
uses: docker/login-action@v2
with:
username: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_USERNAME }}
password: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v3
with:
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```
Be careful because **any file mutation in the steps that precede the build step
will be ignored, including processing of the `.dockerignore` file** since
the context is based on the Git reference. However, you can use the
[Path context](#path-context) using the [`context` input](#inputs) alongside
the [`actions/checkout`](https://github.com/actions/checkout/) action to remove
this restriction.
Default Git context can also be provided using the [Handlebars template](https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/)
expression `{{defaultContext}}`. Here we can use it to provide a subdirectory
to the default Git context:
```yaml
-
# Setting up Docker Buildx with docker-container driver is required
# at the moment to be able to use a subdirectory with Git context
name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v3
with:
context: "{{defaultContext}}:mysubdir"
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```
> **Warning**
>
> Subdirectory for Git context is available from [BuildKit v0.9.0](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/releases/tag/v0.9.0).
> If you're using the `docker` builder (default if `setup-buildx-action` not used),
> then BuildKit in Docker Engine will be used. As Docker Engine < v22.x.x embeds
> Buildkit 0.8.2 at the moment, it does not support this feature. It's therefore
> required to use the `setup-buildx-action` at the moment.
Building from the current repository automatically uses the [GitHub Token](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/automatic-token-authentication),
so it does not need to be passed. If you want to authenticate against another
private repository, you have to use a [secret](https://docs.docker.com/build/ci/github-actions/examples/#secrets)
named `GIT_AUTH_TOKEN` to be able to authenticate against it with Buildx:
```yaml
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v3
with:
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
secrets: |
GIT_AUTH_TOKEN=${{ secrets.MYTOKEN }}
```
### Path context
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
branches:
- 'main'
jobs:
docker:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v3
-
name: Set up QEMU
uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v2
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2
-
name: Login to Docker Hub
uses: docker/login-action@v2
with:
username: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_USERNAME }}
password: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v3
with:
context: .
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```
