## Upgrade from v1

`v2` of this action includes significant updates and now uses Docker [Buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx). It
works with 3 new optional actions ([login](https://github.com/docker/login-action), [setup-buildx](https://github.com/docker/setup-buildx-action)
and [setup-qemu](https://github.com/docker/setup-qemu-action)) that we have created. It's also rewritten as a
[typescript-action](https://github.com/actions/typescript-action/) to be as closed as possible of the
[GitHub Runner](https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments) during its execution (#71 #92).

[Upgrade notes](UPGRADE.md) and many [usage examples](#usage) have been added to handle most use cases but `v1` is
still available through [`releases/v1` branch](https://github.com/docker/build-push-action/tree/releases/v1).

## Usage

This action uses our [setup-buildx](https://github.com/docker/setup-buildx-action) action that extends the
`docker build` command named [buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx) with the full support of the features
provided by [Moby BuildKit](https://github.com/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](https://github.com/docker/build-push-action/blob/master/src/context.ts#L35).

```yaml
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](https://help.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/authenticating-with-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:

```yaml
      -
        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 }}
```

> :warning: Subdir for Git context is [not yet supported](https://github.com/docker/build-push-action/issues/120).
> For the moment you can use the [path context](#path-context).

### Path context

You can also use the `PATH` context alongside the [`actions/checkout`](https://github.com/actions/checkout/) action.

```yaml
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

```yaml
name: ci

on:
  push:
    branches: master

jobs:
  multi-builders:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      -
        uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
        id: builder1
      -
        uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
        id: builder2
      -
        name: Builder 1 name
        run: echo ${{ steps.builder1.outputs.name }}
      -
        name: Builder 2 name
        run: echo ${{ steps.builder2.outputs.name }}
      -
        name: Build against builder1
        uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
        with:
          builder: ${{ steps.builder1.outputs.name }}
          target: mytarget1
      -
        name: Build against builder2
        uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
        with:
          builder: ${{ steps.builder2.outputs.name }}
          target: mytarget2
```

### Multi-platform image

```yaml
name: ci

on:
  push:
    branches: master

jobs:
  multi:
    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

        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/386,linux/amd64,linux/arm/v6,linux/arm/v7,linux/arm64,linux/ppc64le,linux/s390x
          push: true
          tags: |
            user/app:latest
            user/app:1.0.0
```

## Advanced usage

### Local registry

For testing purposes you may need to create a [local registry](https://hub.docker.com/_/registry) to push images into:

<details>
  <summary><b>Show workflow</b></summary>
  
  ```yaml
  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
  ```
</details>

### Leverage GitHub cache

You can leverage [GitHub cache](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/caching-dependencies-to-speed-up-workflows)
using [actions/cache](https://github.com/actions/cache) with this action:

<details>
  <summary><b>Show workflow</b></summary>
  
  ```yaml
  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
  ```
</details>

### Complete workflow

If you come from [`v1`](https://github.com/docker/build-push-action/tree/releases/v1#readme) and you want an
"automatic" tag management through Git reference and [OCI Image Format Specification](https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/master/annotations.md)
for labels, you will have to do it in a dedicated step [for now](https://github.com/docker/build-push-action/issues/116).

The following workflow with the `Prepare` step will generate some [outputs](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjobs_idoutputs)
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:

### Update DockerHub repo description

You can update the [Docker Hub repository description](https://docs.docker.com/docker-hub/repos/) using
a third-party action called [Docker Hub Description](https://github.com/peter-evans/dockerhub-description)
with this action:

## 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"
```

## Limitation

This action is only available for Linux [virtual environments](https://help.github.com/en/articles/virtual-environments-for-github-actions#supported-virtual-environments-and-hardware-resources).
