## About
GitHub Action to set up Docker [Buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx).
This action will create and boot a builder that can be used in the following steps of your workflow if you're using
[buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx). By default, the `docker-container` [builder driver](https://github.com/docker/buildx/blob/master/docs/reference/buildx_create.md#driver)
will be used to be able to build multi-platform images and export cache thanks to the [BuildKit](https://github.com/moby/buildkit)
container.

## Usage
### Quick start
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
jobs:
buildx:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
id: buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
-
name: Inspect builder
run: |
echo "Name: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.name }}"
echo "Endpoint: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.endpoint }}"
echo "Status: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.status }}"
echo "Flags: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.flags }}"
echo "Platforms: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.platforms }}"
```
### With QEMU
If you want support for more platforms you can use our [setup-qemu](https://github.com/docker/setup-qemu-action) action:
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
jobs:
buildx:
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
id: buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
-
name: Available platforms
run: echo ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.platforms }}
```
### Install by default
Implemented with https://github.com/docker/buildx#setting-buildx-as-default-builder-in-docker-1903
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
jobs:
buildx:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
-
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
id: buildx
with:
install: true
-
name: Build
run: |
docker build . # will run buildx
```

## 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://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/virtual-environments-for-github-hosted-runners#supported-virtual-environments-and-hardware-resources).
