GitHub Action to set up Docker [Buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx).
This action will create and boot a builder that can be used in the following steps of your workflow if you're using
[buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx). By default, the `docker-container` [builder driver](https://github.com/docker/buildx/blob/master/docs/reference/buildx_create.md#driver)
will be used to be able to build multi-platform images and export cache thanks to the [BuildKit](https://github.com/moby/buildkit)
container.
This action will create and boot a builder that can be used in the following

## Usage
### Quick start
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
jobs:
buildx:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v3
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
id: buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2
-
name: Inspect builder
run: |
echo "Name: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.name }}"
echo "Endpoint: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.endpoint }}"
echo "Status: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.status }}"
echo "Flags: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.flags }}"
echo "Platforms: ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.platforms }}"
```
### With QEMU
If you want support for more platforms you can use our [setup-qemu](https://github.com/docker/setup-qemu-action) action:
```yaml
name: ci

id: buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2
-
name: Available platforms
run: echo ${{ steps.buildx.outputs.platforms }}
```
### Install by default
## Advanced usage
If you want set up the `docker build` command as an alias to `docker buildx build`:
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
jobs:
buildx:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v3
-
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2
id: buildx
with:
install: true
-
name: Build
run: |
docker build . # will run buildx
```
### BuildKit daemon configuration
You can provide a [BuildKit configuration](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/blob/master/docs/buildkitd.toml.md)
to your builder if you're using the [`docker-container` driver](https://github.com/docker/buildx/blob/master/docs/reference/buildx_create.md#driver)
(default) with the `config` or `config-inline` inputs:
#### Registry mirror
You can configure a registry mirror using an inline block directly in your
workflow with the `config-inline` input:
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
jobs:
buildx:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2
with:
config-inline: |
[registry."docker.io"]
mirrors = ["mirror.gcr.io"]
```
#### Max parallelism
You can limit the parallelism of the BuildKit solver which is particularly
useful for low-powered machines.
You can use the `config-inline` input like the
previous example, or you can use a dedicated BuildKit config file from your
repo if you want with the `config` input:
```toml
# .github/buildkitd.toml
[worker.oci]
max-parallelism = 4
```
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
jobs:
buildx:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2
with:
config: .github/buildkitd.toml
```
### Standalone mode
If you don't have the Docker CLI installed on the GitHub Runner, buildx binary
is invoked directly, instead of calling it as a docker plugin. This can be
useful if you want to use the `kubernetes` driver in your self-hosted runner:
```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
jobs:
buildx:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2
with:
driver: kubernetes
-
name: Build
run: |
buildx build .
```
