## 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` [builder driver](https://github.com/docker/buildx/blob/master/docs/reference/buildx_create.md#driver).
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](#git-context) so you don't need
to use the [`actions/checkout`](https://github.com/actions/checkout/) action to
check out the repository because 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/reference/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@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: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
with:
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```
Be careful because **any file mutation in the steps that precede the build step
will be ignored, including processing of the `.dockerignore` file** since
the context is based on the Git reference. However, you can use the
[Path context](#path-context) using the [`context` input](#inputs) alongside
the [`actions/checkout`](https://github.com/actions/checkout/) action to remove
this restriction.
Default Git context can also be provided using the [Handlebars template](https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/)
expression `{{defaultContext}}`. Here we can use it to provide a subdirectory
to the default Git context:
```yaml
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
with:
context: "{{defaultContext}}:mysubdir"
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```
> :warning: Subdirectory for Git context is not yet available for the buildx [`docker` driver](https://github.com/docker/buildx/blob/master/docs/reference/buildx_create.md#driver).
Building from the current repository automatically uses the [GitHub Token](https://help.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/authenticating-with-the-github_token)
so it does not need to be passed. If you want to authenticate against another
private repository, you have to use a [secret](docs/advanced/secrets.md) named
`GIT_AUTH_TOKEN` to be able to authenticate against it with buildx:
```yaml
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
with:
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
secrets: |
GIT_AUTH_TOKEN=${{ secrets.MYTOKEN }}
```
### Path context
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
branches:
- 'main'
jobs:
docker:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@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: .
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```

## Troubleshooting
See [TROUBLESHOOTING.md](TROUBLESHOOTING.md)
## Keep up-to-date with GitHub Dependabot
Since [Dependabot](https://docs.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/keeping-your-actions-up-to-date-with-github-dependabot)
has [native GitHub Actions support](https://docs.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/configuration-options-for-dependency-updates#package-ecosystem),
to enable it on your GitHub repo all you need to do is add the `.github/dependabot.yml` file:
```yaml
version: 2
updates:
# Maintain dependencies for GitHub Actions
- package-ecosystem: "github-actions"
directory: "/"
schedule:
interval: "daily"
```
