A. GitHub Actions ​

A.01 - Clone Private Repo ​

1. Create a Personal Access Token (PAT):

2. Add the PAT as a GitHub Secret:

  • In your repository, go to "Settings" -> "Secrets" -> "Actions."
  • Give it a name (e.g., GITHUB_TOKEN).

3. Use the PAT in your GitHub Actions workflow:

Method A: Using actions/checkout with a token:

yaml
jobs:
  clone:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout main repository
        uses: actions/checkout@v3

      - name: Checkout private repository
        uses: actions/checkout@v3
        with:
          repository: owner/repo  # Replace with the owner and repository name
          token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} # Use the secret you created

Method B: Using git clone directly:

yaml
jobs:
  clone:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout main repository
        uses: actions/checkout@v3

      - name: Clone private repository
        run: |
          git clone https://${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}@github.com/owner/repo.git private-repo

A.02 - Generate Docker Image Tags ​

  • Each building have a latest tag and SHA tag.
  • Only git tag triggered building have semver tags.
yaml
      - name: Extract metadata for Docker
        id: meta
        uses: docker/metadata-action@v5
        with:
          images: yourimage
          tags: |
            type=raw,value=latest
            type=sha,format=long
            type=semver,pattern={{version}},enable=${{ startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags/') }}
            type=semver,pattern={{major}}.{{minor}},enable=${{ startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags/') }}
            type=raw,value={{tag}},enable=${{ startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags/') }}

B. Docker Build ​

B.01 - pip install cache ​

docker
RUN --mount=type=cache,target=/root/.cache/pip pip install your_package

This command will mount a Docker-managed cache storage to the default pip cached folder
