[FEATURE] build multi-arch image

[dragoneena12]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. This Action seems to be able to publish only amd64 image. I want multi-arch image(i.e. armhf or arm64).

Describe the solution you'd like I think we can use docker buildx.

[elgohr]

At the moment you could use a self-hosted runner, but I agree that this would be a great feature.

[dragoneena12]

ty! I'll work on this.

Would love to get that feature too, did you get to dig into this @dragoneena12 ?

[dragoneena12]

@sundowndev Now I'm using docker/build-push-action instead.

[elgohr]

Sorry, didn't see that this was auto-closed.

[elgohr]

Please give it a try: https://github.com/elgohr/Publish-Docker-Github-Action/releases/tag/3.03 I'm not sure about pushing the images at the moment - as I found no documentation. Need to investigate whether -push in docker buildx build is necessary or whether this could also be done by using good old docker push.

@elgohr I am running this action with elgohr/Publish-Docker-Github-Action@master I tried running this on ubuntu-18.04 and ubuntu-20.04. Both times I got the error

dd: can't open '/etc/docker/daemon.json': No such file or directory

I used the new property platforms: linux/amd64,linux/arm64. I am hesitant to share the full config due to security considerations.

Do I need to do an extra setup to make docker buildx and platforms work?

[elgohr]

Hey @a1300 , will have a look. Do you get this for both Ubuntu versions?

[a1300]

@elgohr yes on both ubuntu versions

[a1300]

@elgohr do you know an example project that uses the new platforms option ?

[elgohr]

At the moment this feature is in beta (see Release Notes). In this way I'm still exploring the field. Looks like we got some challenge here : https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/issues/3090

Sorry to say that I reverted this for now (https://github.com/elgohr/Publish-Docker-Github-Action/commit/184d5f4bcf6035e441545968457b61f820efe1c1). At the moment I have not that much time for tinkering (as you can see in the other issue, it's just tinkering). I don't want this action to promise something that is broken.

I also increased the time for issues not becoming stale https://github.com/elgohr/Publish-Docker-Github-Action/commit/be0a327a5b402db8600d8d2afa83ecc23b2d9a6e

Finally I managed to recover some time. Would be great if you could beta test

[mcpierce]

I'm trying this feature and am not having luck: it's only publishing a linux/amd64 image and I would love to have linux/arm64 as well. Any suggestions?

[elgohr]

@mcpierce could you please provide your configuration?

[mcpierce]

@elgohr I spent some time last night working on this issue in my project and found an alternative path for publishing multi platform. Thanks for the quick response.
