2020-11-17 23:31:03 +01:00
2020-12-24 04:13:41 +01:00
This action also handles a bake definition file that can be used with the
2021-02-09 20:54:44 +01:00
[Docker Bake action ](https://github.com/docker/bake-action ). You just have to declare an empty target named
`ghaction-docker-meta` and inherit from it.
2020-12-24 04:13:41 +01:00
```hcl
// docker-bake.hcl
target "ghaction-docker-meta" {}
target "build" {
inherits = ["ghaction-docker-meta"]
context = "./"
dockerfile = "Dockerfile"
platforms = ["linux/amd64", "linux/arm/v6", "linux/arm/v7", "linux/arm64", "linux/386", "linux/ppc64le"]

2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
## `flavor` input
2020-10-25 15:13:43 +01:00
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
`flavor` defines a global behavior for [`tags` ](#tags-input ):
2020-10-28 18:25:31 +01:00
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
```yaml
flavor: |
latest=auto
prefix=
suffix=
```
2020-11-20 23:12:14 +01:00
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
* `latest=<auto|true|false>` : Handle [latest tag ](#latest-tag ) (default `auto` )
* `prefix=<string>` : A global prefix for each generated tag
* `suffix=<string>` : A global suffix for each generated tag
2020-11-20 23:12:14 +01:00
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
## `tags` input
2020-11-18 17:56:34 +01:00
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
`tags` is the core input of this action as everything related to it will reflect the output metadata. This one is in
the form of a key-value pair list in CSV format to remove limitations intrinsically linked to GitHub Actions
(only string format is handled in the input fields). Here is an example:
2020-10-25 15:13:43 +01:00
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
```yaml
tags: |
type=schedule
type=ref,event=branch
type=ref,event=pr
type=semver,pattern={{version}}
type=semver,pattern={{major}}.{{minor}}
type=semver,pattern={{major}}
type=sha
```
Each entry is defined by a `type` , which are:
* [`type=schedule` ](#typeschedule )
* [`type=semver` ](#typesemver )
* [`type=match` ](#typematch )
* [`type=edge` ](#typeedge )
* [`type=ref` ](#typeref )
* [`type=raw` ](#typeraw )
* [`type=sha` ](#typesha )
And global attributes:
* `enable=<true|false>` enable this entry (default `true` )
* `priority=<number>` priority to manage the order of tags
* `prefix=<string>` add prefix
* `suffix=<string>` add suffix
Default entries if `tags` input is empty:
```yaml
tags: |
type=schedule
type=ref,event=branch
type=ref,event=tag
type=ref,event=pr
```
### `type=schedule`
```yaml
tags: |
# minimal
type=schedule
# default
type=schedule,pattern=nightly
# handlebars
type=schedule,pattern={{date 'YYYYMMDD'}}
```
Will be used on [schedule event ](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/events-that-trigger-workflows#schedule ).
`pattern` is a specially crafted attribute to support [Handlebars template ](https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/ ) with
2020-10-25 15:13:43 +01:00
the following expressions:
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
* `date 'format'` ; render date by its [moment format ](https://momentjs.com/docs/#/displaying/format/ )
| Pattern | Output |
|--------------------------|----------------------|
| `nightly` | `nightly` |
| `{{date 'YYYYMMDD'}}` | `20210326` |
Extended attributes and default values:
```yaml
tags: |
type=schedule,enable=true,priority=1000,prefix=,suffix=,pattern=nightly
```
### `type=semver`
```yaml
tags: |
# minimal
type=semver,pattern={{version}}
# use custom value instead of git tag
type=semver,pattern={{version}},value=v1.0.0
```
Will be used on a [push tag event ](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/events-that-trigger-workflows#push )
and requires a valid Git tag [semver ](https://semver.org/ ) but you can also use a custom value through `value`
attribute.
`pattern` attribute supports [Handlebars template ](https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/ ) with the following expressions:
* `raw` ; the actual semver
* `version` ; shorthand for `{{major}}.{{minor}}.{{patch}}` (can include pre-release)
* `major` ; major version identifier
* `minor` ; minor version identifier
* `patch` ; patch version identifier
| Git tag | Pattern | Output |
|--------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|----------------------|
| `v1.2.3` | `{{raw}}` | `v1.2.3` |
| `v1.2.3` | `{{version}}` | `1.2.3` |
| `v1.2.3` | `{{major}}.{{minor}}` | `1.2` |
| `v1.2.3` | `v{{major}}` | `v1` |
| `v1.2.3` | `{{minor}}` | `2` |
| `v1.2.3` | `{{patch}}` | `3` |
| `v2.0.8-beta.67` | `{{raw}}` | `2.0.8-beta.67` * |
| `v2.0.8-beta.67` | `{{version}}` | `2.0.8-beta.67` |
| `v2.0.8-beta.67` | `{{major}}.{{minor}}` | `2.0.8-beta.67` * |
> *Pre-release (rc, beta, alpha) will only extend `{{version}}` as tag because they are updated frequently,
> and contain many breaking changes that are (by the author's design) not yet fit for public consumption.
Extended attributes and default values:
2020-10-25 15:13:43 +01:00
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
```yaml
tags: |
type=semver,enable=true,priority=900,prefix=,suffix=,pattern=,value=
```
### `type=match`
```yaml
tags: |
# minimal
2021-04-03 18:15:27 +02:00
type=match,pattern=\d.\d.\d
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
# define match group
type=match,pattern=v(.*),group=1
# use custom value instead of git tag
type=match,pattern=v(.*),group=1,value=v1.0.0
```
Can create a regular expression for matching Git tag with a pattern and capturing group. Will be used on a
[push tag event ](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/events-that-trigger-workflows#push ) but you can also use
a custom value through `value` attribute.
| Git tag | Pattern | Group | Output |
|-------------------------|-------------------------------|---------|------------------------|
2021-04-03 18:15:27 +02:00
| `v1.2.3` | `\d.\d.\d` | `0` | `1.2.3` |
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
| `v2.0.8-beta.67` | `v(.*)` | `1` | `2.0.8-beta.67` |
| `v2.0.8-beta.67` | `v(\d.\d)` | `1` | `2.0` |
| `20200110-RC2` | `\d+` | `0` | `20200110` |
Extended attributes and default values:
```yaml
tags: |
2021-04-03 18:18:32 +02:00
type=match,enable=true,priority=800,prefix=,suffix=,pattern=,group=0,value=
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
```
### `type=edge`
```yaml
tags: |
# minimal
type=edge
# define default branch
type=edge,branch=main
```
An `edge` tag reflects the last commit of the active branch on your Git repository. I usually prefer to use `edge`
as a Docker tag for a better distinction or common pattern. This is also used by official images
like [Alpine ](https://hub.docker.com/_/alpine ).
Extended attributes and default values:
```yaml
tags: |
type=edge,enable=true,priority=700,prefix=,suffix=,branch=$repo.default_branch
```
### `type=ref`
```yaml
tags: |
# minimal branch event
type=ref,event=branch
# minimal tag event
type=ref,event=tag
# minimal pull request event
type=ref,event=pr
```
This type handles Git ref (or reference) for the following events:
* `branch` ; eg. `refs/heads/master`
* `tag` ; eg. `refs/tags/v1.0.0`
* `pr` ; eg. `refs/pull/318/merge`
| Event | Ref | Output |
|-----------------|-------------------------------|-------------------------------|
| `pull_request` | `refs/pull/2/merge` | `pr-2` |
| `push` | `refs/heads/master` | `master` |
| `push` | `refs/heads/my/branch` | `my-branch` |
| `push tag` | `refs/tags/v1.2.3` | `v1.2.3` |
| `push tag` | `refs/tags/v2.0.8-beta.67` | `v2.0.8-beta.67` |
Extended attributes and default values:
```yaml
tags: |
# event branch
type=ref,enable=true,priority=600,prefix=,suffix=,event=
# event tag
type=ref,enable=true,priority=600,prefix=,suffix=,event=
# event pr
type=ref,enable=true,priority=600,prefix=pr-,suffix=,event=
```
### `type=raw`
```yaml
tags: |
type=raw,value=foo
type=raw,value=bar
# or
type=raw,foo
type=raw,bar
# or
foo
bar
```
Output custom tags according to your needs.
Extended attributes and default values:
```yaml
tags: |
type=raw,enable=true,priority=200,prefix=,suffix=,value=
```
### `type=sha`
```yaml
tags: |
# minimal
type=sha
```
Output Git short commit as Docker tag like `sha-ad132f5` .
Extended attributes and default values:
```yaml
tags: |
type=sha,enable=true,priority=100,prefix=sha-,suffix=
```

`latest` tag is handled through the [`flavor` input ](#flavor-input ). It will be generated by default (`auto` mode) for:
* [`type=ref,event=tag` ](#typeref )
* [`type=semver,pattern=...` ](#typesemver )
* [`type=match,pattern=...` ](#typematch )

### Overwrite labels
If some of the [OCI Image Format Specification ](https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/master/annotations.md )
labels generated are not suitable, you can overwrite them like this:
```yaml
-
2020-12-23 22:09:38 +01:00
name: Docker meta
id: docker_meta
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
uses: crazy-max/ghaction-docker-meta@v2
2020-10-27 14:13:48 +01:00
with:
2020-12-23 22:09:38 +01:00
images: name/app
2021-03-29 13:04:53 +02:00
labels: |
2020-12-23 22:09:38 +01:00
maintainer=CrazyMax
2020-10-27 14:13:48 +01:00
org.opencontainers.image.title=MyCustomTitle
org.opencontainers.image.description=Another description
org.opencontainers.image.vendor=MyCompany
```

## 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"
```
