Question about context path

[Kakcalu13]

The snippet below:

      - name: Push to GCR GitHub Action
        uses: RafikFarhad/[email protected]
        with:
          gcloud_service_key: ${{ secrets.GCR_SERVICE }}
          project_id: feagi-poc
          image_name: test
          image_tag: latest
          dockerfile: ./tmp/playground/Dockerfile
          context: /

The dockerfile I have is in /tmp/playground

how come I couldn't use like this:

          dockerfile: .Dockerfile
          context: ./tmp/playground

or

          dockerfile: ./tmp/playground/Dockerfile
          context: ./tmp/playground

None of them worked. I'm unable to access to see where is the default path it is in. How do I direct context to get the /tmp/playground?

[RafikFarhad]

This should work except the . in front of Dockerfile

dockerfile: Dockerfile
context: ./tmp/playground

Build process will set the context first and will look for the Dockerfile

Thanks @RafikFarhad!

Testing it now

Unfortunately, that did not work. Sounds like it couldn't run the dockerfile anywhere, it has to be inside the current directory. See here:

I added one job before push to gcr.

Then the next job (which is the same one as above plus your change/suggestion:

See the snippet of yml:

      - name: debugging playground
        working-directory: /tmp/playground
        run: |
          pwd
          echo "ls playground"
          ls
      - name: Push to GCR GitHub Action
        uses: RafikFarhad/[email protected]
        with:
          gcloud_service_key: ${{ secrets.GCR_SERVICE }}
          project_id: feagi-poc
          image_name: feagi-dev/playground
          image_tag: ${{ github.run_number }}, latest
          dockerfile: Dockerfile
          context: ./tmp/playground

Honestly, I don't see anything wrong with your suggestion. If you have more ideas, I'd love to hear them since I've hit the block now :(

      - name: debugging playground
        working-directory: /tmp/playground
        run: |
          pwd
          echo "ls playground"
          ls
      - name: Push to GCR GitHub Action
        uses: RafikFarhad/[email protected]

          project_id: feagi-poc
          image_name: feagi-dev/playground
          image_tag: ${{ github.run_number }}, latest
          dockerfile: Dockerfile
          context: ./tmp/playground

thought your working directory in previous step is actually /tmp/playground, you should use

             context: /tmp/playground

instead of ./tmp/playground (which is /home/runner/work/{repo_owner}/{repo}/tmp/playground )

I guess the content of /tmp/playground were created by a previous step which was not included in your repo, so docker could not found the context with the wrong PATH
