Fork of: https://github.com/FlowSquad/docker-cloud-build for internal use at Ecologi.

Adds support for the following:

  • pull_request: action event type
  • gcp-machine-type: resource to use for the build
  • image-path: Dockerfile path other than in the root directory
  • Re-uses previous image layers as a cache to improve performance

Docker Cloud Build

Docker Cloud Build is a GitHub Action that can be used to build Docker images using Google Cloud Storage, Google Cloud Build and Google Container Registry. It also has some more features:

  • Build images for commits and tags
  • Include files by specifying wildcard patterns
  • Custom image tag format using branch name, hash, date, and time
  • Add more tags such as latest or custom constants
  • Supports GitHub Commit Status: Add the auilt images to your commit status
  • Supports GitHub Releases: Add the built images to your release notes

Usage

Just include the action in your workflow like this:

- name: Build Docker Image
  uses: ecologi/[email protected]
  with:
    gcp-project-id: my-project-id
    gcp-service-account-key: ${{ secrets.GCP_SA_KEY }}
    image-name: my-image-name
    image-sources: build/libs/*.jar,Dockerfile,some-other-file
    github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

Configuration

The action can be configured by specifying several configuration options that are described in detail in the following paragraphs.

Configuring GCP

To use Google Cloud services such as Cloud Build, Cloud Storage, or Container Registry, you first have to configure this action. You can use the following options.

Option Meaning
gcp-project-id Required. The project ID to use for all GCP services.
gcp-service-account-key Required. The content of the service account JSON file to
use for authentication.
gcp-cloud-storage-bucket The Cloud Storage bucket to use to temporarily store the
Cloud Build input files. By default, a bucket with the name
${projectId}_cloudbuild will be used. The uploaded
files will be deleted after the build has finished.

You have to create the specified bucket first manually.
gcp-gcr-region The region to use for Google Container Registry. Can be
one of the following values:
  • gcr.io
  • eu.gcr.io
  • us.gcr.io
  • asia.gcr.io
The default value is eu.gcr.io.
gcp-machine-type The machine type to use for the build. Can be
one of the following values:
  • UNSPECIFIED
  • N1_HIGHCPU_8
  • N1_HIGHCPU_32
  • E2_HIGHCPU_8
  • E2_HIGHCPU_32
  • The default value is UNSPECIFIED.

    Building the image

    To build the image successfully, you have to specify at least these options.

    Option Meaning
    image-name Required. The name of the image to build.
    image-sources Required. The sources to use to build the image.

    You can include any source files that are within your GitHub workspace,
    such as build artifacts or Dockerfiles. The option also supports globstar
    wildcards such as ?, *, **, or [...]. Read this for more details.
    image-path Path to the Dockerfile, e.g. ./customDockerfile

    Tagging the image

    If the build is caused by a commit, the image will by default be tagged with branch, commit hash, and date. If it is caused by a tag, the tag name is used instead. You can customize the tags that are applied to your image by specifying these options.

    Option Meaning
    image-tag-latest Set this to true to append -latest tag to the image format.
    image-tag-additional-tags Set this to a comma-separated list of values to specify
    additional tags.
    image-tag-format Specify the format of the default tag if it is caused by
    a commit. You can use the following placeholders:
    $BRANCH     The branch name, normalized.
    $SHA The 7-digit SHA of the commit
    $YYYY The year in 4-digit format
    $MM The month in 2-digit format
    $DD The day in 2-digit format
    $HH The hour in 2-digit format (24h)
    $mm The minute in 2-digit-format
    $SS The second in 2-digit-format
    Default: $BRANCH-$SHA-$YYYY.$MM.$DD-$HH.$mm.$SS.

    GitHub Integration

    This action by default tries to add the built image to the GitHub UI. However, depending on the build cause (commit or tag), there are different ways to achieve this. You have to specify one of these options:

    Option Meaning
    github-token The token to use to authenticate to GitHub. Usually the default token
    provided by GitHub Actions
    is sufficient.

    You can specify it like this:
    github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
    github-disabled Disables all GitHub integrations.

    GitHub Commit Status

    If the build was caused by a commit (i.e. the GITHUB_REF environment variable is set to a branch name), the image will be added to the commit's status like this, linking to the image in Google Container Registry:

    Only the second row will be added.

    GitHub Commit Status

    You can configure this by specifying one or several of the following options:

    Option Meaning
    github-commit-status-disabled Set this to true to disable this integration.
    github-commit-status-all Set this to true to add every tag in a separate
    row. By default, only the primary tag will be added.
    github-commit-status-description This option specifies the format in which the tags
    will be displayed. The default value is small.
    Can be one of the following values:
    large host/project/image:tag
    eu.gcr.io/flowsquad-io/my-image:latest

    medium project/image:tag
    flowsquad-io/my-image:latest

    small image:tag
    my-image:latest

    tiny tag
    latest
    github-commit-status-title This option specifies the title used in the commit
    status. The default value is Docker Image.

    GitHub Release information

    If the build was caused by a tag (i.e. the GITHUB_REF environment variable is set to a tag name), the action will try to add the image to a matching release like this:

    Only the last paragraph will be added.

    GitHub Release Information

    You can configure this by specifying one or several of the following options:

    Option Meaning
    github-release-information-disabled Set this to true to disable this integration.
    github-release-information-all Set this to true to add all image tags instead
    of just the primary one.

    Example

    This is an example for a GitHub Action workflow that uses this action and specifies all possible options (that are not exclusive to each other). You need to adapt it to your own requirements first.

    on:
      push: # Listen to commits
      release:
        types:
          - published # Listen to releases (you can't listen to tags directly)
    
    jobs:
      build:
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        steps:
          - name: Checkout Sources
