Docker

The Docker plugin can be used to build and publish images to the Docker registry.

The following pipeline configuration uses the Docker plugin to build and publish Docker images:

kind: pipeline
name: default

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word
    repo: foo/bar
    tags: latest

Example configuration using multiple tags:

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word
    repo: foo/bar
    tags:
      - latest
      - '1.0.1'
      - '1.0'

Example configuration using a .tags file (a comma separated list of tags):

steps:
- name: build
  image: golang
  commands:
    - go build
    - go test
    - echo -n "5.2.6,5.2.4" > .tags

- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word
    repo: foo/bar

Example configuration using build arguments:

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word
    repo: foo/bar
    build_args:
      - HTTP_PROXY=http://yourproxy.com

Example configuration using alternate Dockerfile:

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word
    repo: foo/bar
    dockerfile: path/to/Dockerfile

Example configuration using a custom registry:

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word
    repo: index.company.com/foo/bar
    registry: index.company.com

Example configuration using inline credentials:

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word
    repo: foo/bar

Example configuration using credentials from secrets:

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    repo: foo/bar
    username:
      from_secret: docker_username
    password:
      from_secret: docker_password

Autotag

The Docker plugin can be configured to automatically tag your images. When this feature is enabled and the event type is tag, the plugin will automatically tag the image using the standard major, minor, release convention. For example:

1.0.0 produces docker tags 1, 1.0, 1.0.0
1.0.0-rc.1 produces docker tags 1.0.0-rc.1

When the event type is push and the target branch is your default branch (e.g. master) the plugin will automatically tag the image as latest. All other event types and branches are ignored.

Example configuration:

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    repo: foo/bar
    auto_tag: true
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word

Example configuration with tag suffix:

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    repo: foo/bar
    auto_tag: true
    auto_tag_suffix: linux-amd64
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word

Please note that auto-tagging is intentionally simple and opinionated. We are not accepting pull requests at this time to further customize the logic.

Multi-stage builds

The Docker plugin allow to stop build at a specific stage defined in Dockerfile as described in the official docs. If the target attribute is not defined, the Docker plugin will not stop at any stage and build the full docker image.

Using a Dockerfile like:

FROM golang as builder
WORKSPACE /go/src/github.com/foo/bar
RUN CGO_ENABLED=0 GOOS=linux go build -o demo main.go

FROM scratch as production
COPY --from=builder /go/src/github.com/foo/bar/demo .
CMD ["./demo"]

FROM alpine as debug
COPY --from=builder /go/src/github.com/foo/bar/demo .
CMD ["./demo"]

Example configuration that allow build a docker image for production:

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    repo: foo/bar
    target: production
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word

and this one will build debug docker image

steps:
- name: docker  
  image: plugins/docker
  settings:
    repo: foo/bar
    target: debug
    username: kevinbacon
    password: pa55word
