## 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:
jobs:
docker:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Set up QEMU
uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v3
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v3
-
name: Login to Docker Hub
uses: docker/login-action@v3
with:
username: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_USERNAME }}
password: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v6
with:
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```
Be careful because **any file mutation in the steps that precede the build step
will be ignored, including processing of the `.dockerignore` file** since
the context is based on the Git reference. However, you can use the
[Path context](#path-context) using the [`context` input](#inputs) alongside
the [`actions/checkout`](https://github.com/actions/checkout/) action to remove
this restriction.
Default Git context can also be provided using the [Handlebars template](https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/)
expression `{{defaultContext}}`. Here we can use it to provide a subdirectory
to the default Git context:
```yaml
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v6
with:
context: "{{defaultContext}}:mysubdir"
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```
Building from the current repository automatically uses the [GitHub Token](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-guides/automatic-token-authentication),
so it does not need to be passed. If you want to authenticate against another
private repository, you have to use a [secret](https://docs.docker.com/build/ci/github-actions/secrets)
named `GIT_AUTH_TOKEN` to be able to authenticate against it with Buildx:
```yaml
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v6
with:
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
secrets: |
GIT_AUTH_TOKEN=${{ secrets.MYTOKEN }}
```
### Path context
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
jobs:
docker:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v4
-
name: Set up QEMU
uses: docker/setup-qemu-action@v3
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v3
-
name: Login to Docker Hub
uses: docker/login-action@v3
with:
username: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_USERNAME }}
password: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v6
with:
context: .
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```

## Summaries
This action generates a [job summary](https://github.blog/2022-05-09-supercharging-github-actions-with-job-summaries/)
that provides a detailed overview of the build execution. The summary shows an
overview of all the steps executed during the build, including the build inputs
and eventual errors.
![build-push-action job summary](./.github/build-push-summary.png)
The summary also includes a link for downloading the build record with
additional details about the build, including build stats, logs, outputs, and
more. The build record can be imported to Docker Desktop for inspecting the
build in greater detail.
Summaries are enabled by default, but can be disabled with the
`DOCKER_BUILD_SUMMARY` [environment variable](#environment-variables).
For more information about summaries, refer to the
[documentation](https://docs.docker.com/go/build-summary/).
