Do not build container actions ahead of time #814
Description
jobs:
job:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
# BUG: GitHub's runner tries to build the last action before starting the first step.
# It fails, because container image image_name does not exist yet.
- name: Build hdlc/doc
run: |
docker build -t image_name - <<-EOF
FROM asciidoctor/docker-asciidoctor
RUN apk add -U --no-cache graphviz
EOF
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: docker://image_name
with:
args: doc/make.shAs a result, it is currently not possible to use local containers using the uses: docker:// syntax.
The alternative is to call docker explicitly, which requires handling all the environment manually (if necessary):
jobs:
job:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Build hdlc/doc
run: |
docker build -t image_name - <<-EOF
FROM asciidoctor/docker-asciidoctor
RUN apk add -U --no-cache graphviz
EOF
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Build site
run: docker run -v /$(pwd)://documents/ image_name ./doc/make.shUsing local docker images in container steps should be supported too.
