Investigate docker cacheing on CI build #521

Closed dolsysmith closed 8 months ago

dolsysmith commented 8 months ago

The CI Action currently builds the Docker images from scratch on every run. I think we might be able to conserve compute cycles and save time by using docker buildx bake to build the images within the Action, since it seems as though buildx can output the cached layers to the GitHub registry:

Not sure, but it's worth investigating.
