Each plugin directory must meet the Arcaflow Plugins Requirements.

Configuration

Configuring Arcaflow Container Toolkit can be configured using the act.yaml configuration file, or by using environment variables. More details are below.

example .act.yaml

revision: 20220824
image_name: "<IMAGE_NAME>"
image_tag: "<IMAGE_TAG>"
quay_exp: 'never'
archetype: ''
req_check_only: false
project_filepath: "<path/to/plugin/project/>"
registries:
  - url: quay.io
    username_envvar: "<QUAY_USERNAME>"
    password_envvar: "<QUAY_PASSWORD>"
    namespace_envvar: "<QUAY_NAMESPACE>"

Configurable Variables

Required:

IMAGE_NAME Name of the image that Arcaflow Container Toolkit will build - string
IMAGE_TAG Tag of the image that Arcaflow Container Toolkit will build - string

Required for Publishing to Quay:

QUAY_USERNAME Quay Username to be used for credentials - Default: ""
QUAY_PASSWORD Quay Password to be used for credentials - Default: ""
QUAY_NAMESPACE Quay Namespace to push image - Default: ""

Optional:

QUAY_CUSTOM_NAMESPACE Quay Namespace to push image that is not QUAY_NAMESPACE - Default: ""
QUAY_IMG_EXP Image label to automatically expire in Quay - Default: "never"
BUILD_TIMEOUT Length of time before a build will fail in seconds - Default: 600
ARCHETYPE Request architecture (platform) of image to build with - Default: ""
REQ_CHECK_ONLY Disables build and push but still checks requirements - Default: False

Additional Information

• QUAY_IMG_EXP more documentation and time formats can be found here
• QUAY_CUSTOM_NAMESPACE if set, will use in place of QUAY_NAMESPACE. More info Arcaflow Container Toolkit and Reusable Workflows

Build Arcaflow Container Toolkit as an Executable Locally

Arcaflow Container Toolkit can be ran locally by building an executable from the project's root directory. Configure the act.yaml and or set environment variables for build options.

Build the executable

go build act.go

Arcaflow Container Toolkit test and build

./act build --build

Arcaflow Container Toolkit test, build, and push

./act build --build --push

Arcaflow Container Toolkit as a Package

Pull the latest image

docker pull ghcr.io/arcalot/arcaflow-container-toolkit:latest

Run the Arcaflow Container Toolkit image with enviornment variables

docker run \
    --rm \
    -e=IMAGE_TAG="0.0.1"\
    -e=BUILD_TIMEOUT=600\
    -e=QUAY_USERNAME=$QUAY_USERNAME\
    -e=QUAY_PASSWORD=$QUAY_PASSWORD\
    -e=QUAY_NAMESPACE=$QUAY_NAMESPACE\
    --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:z \
    --volume $PWD/../arcaflow-plugin-template-python:/github/workspace \
    ghcr.io/arcalot/arcaflow-container-toolkit:latest build --build --push

Arcaflow Container Toolkit and Reusable Workflows

Arcaflow Container Toolkit can be utilized using the official reusable workflow arcalot/arcaflow-containter-toolkit/.github/workflows/reusable_workflow.yaml.

name: Arcaflow Container Toolkit
on:
  push:
    branches:
      - "**"
  release:
    types:
      - published

jobs:
  arcaflow-container-toolkit:
    uses: arcalot/arcaflow-container-toolkit/.github/workflows/reusable_workflow.yaml@main
    with:
      image_name: ${{ github.event.repository.name }}
      image_tag: 'latest'
      archetype: 'arm64' # Optional input for demonstration purposes
      multi_arch: True # Optional input for demonstration purposes     
    secrets: 
      QUAY_NAMESPACE: ${{ secrets.QUAY_NAMESPACE }}
      QUAY_USERNAME: ${{ secrets.QUAY_USERNAME }}
      QUAY_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.QUAY_PASSWORD }}

Additional Information

• This workflow will automatically configure IMAGE_TAG to version if a release is detected.
• This workflow will automatically configure IMAGE_TAG to the format branch_commit-hash[0:7] if a development branch is detected.
• This workflow will automatically configure QUAY_IMG_EXP to 90 days if a development branch is detected.
• Setting the archetype input will configure the ARCHETYPE env variable.
• Setting the multi_arch input will configure the REQ_CHECK_ONLY env variable to True, thus allowing docker buildx to handle the build and push functionality in the workflow for multi-arch builds of type linux/amd64,linux/arm64.

Arcaflow Container Toolkit as an Action

Arcaflow Container Toolkit can be utilized as an action in a workflow.

        uses: arcalot/[email protected]
        with:
          image_name: ${{ github.event.repository.name }}
          image_tag: 'latest'
          quay_username: ${{ secrets.QUAY_USERNAME }}
          quay_password: ${{ secrets.QUAY_PASSWORD }}
          quay_namespace: ${{ secrets.QUAY_NAMESPACE }}
          quay_custom_namespace: 'example' # This is optional, for reference
