# GitHub Actions Workflows
## Docker Image Publishing
The `publish-docker.yml` workflow automatically builds and publishes Docker images for the backend service using Nix.
### Triggers and Tagging Strategy
| Event | Condition | Published Tags | Example |
|--------------|-----------------------------|------------------------|-------------------|
| Tag push | Tag pushed to `main` branch | `latest` + version tag | `latest`, `1.0.0` |
| Branch push | Push to `develop` branch | `develop` | `develop` |
| Pull request | PR opened or updated | `pr<number>` | `pr12` |
| Branch push | Push to `main` (no tag) | `latest` | `latest` |
### Required GitHub Secrets
Configure these secrets in your repository settings (`Settings``Secrets and variables``Actions`):
| Secret Name | Description | Example Value |
|---------------------|---------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------|
| `DOCKER_USERNAME` | Username for Docker registry authentication | `phundrak` (Docker Hub) or `phundrak` (ghcr.io) |
| `DOCKER_PASSWORD` | Password or token for Docker registry | Personal Access Token (PAT) or password |
| `CACHIX_AUTH_TOKEN` | (Optional) Token for Cachix caching | Your Cachix auth token |
#### For GitHub Container Registry (ghcr.io)
1. Create a Personal Access Token (PAT):
- Go to GitHub Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens → Tokens (classic)
- Click "Generate new token (classic)"
- Select scopes: `write:packages`, `read:packages`, `delete:packages`
- Copy the generated token
2. Add secrets:
- `DOCKER_USERNAME`: Your GitHub username
- `DOCKER_PASSWORD`: The PAT you just created
#### For Docker Hub
1. Create an access token:
- Go to Docker Hub → Account Settings → Security → Access Tokens
- Click "New Access Token"
- Set permissions to "Read, Write, Delete"
- Copy the generated token
2. Add secrets:
- `DOCKER_USERNAME`: Your Docker Hub username
- `DOCKER_PASSWORD`: The access token you just created
#### For Custom Registry (e.g., labs.phundrak.com)
1. Obtain credentials from your registry administrator
2. Add secrets:
- `DOCKER_USERNAME`: Your registry username
- `DOCKER_PASSWORD`: Your registry password or token
### Configuring the Docker Registry
The target registry is set via the `DOCKER_REGISTRY` environment variable in the workflow file. To change it:
1. Edit `.github/workflows/publish-docker.yml`
2. Modify the `env` section:
```yaml
env:
DOCKER_REGISTRY: ghcr.io # Change to your registry (e.g., docker.io, labs.phundrak.com)
IMAGE_NAME: phundrak/phundrak-dot-com-backend
```
Or set it as a repository variable:
- Go to `Settings``Secrets and variables``Actions``Variables` tab
- Add `DOCKER_REGISTRY` with your desired registry URL
### Image Naming
Images are published with the name: `${DOCKER_REGISTRY}/${IMAGE_NAME}:${TAG}`
For example:
- `ghcr.io/phundrak/phundrak-dot-com-backend:latest`
- `ghcr.io/phundrak/phundrak-dot-com-backend:1.0.0`
- `ghcr.io/phundrak/phundrak-dot-com-backend:develop`
- `ghcr.io/phundrak/phundrak-dot-com-backend:pr12`
### Local Testing
To test the Docker image build locally:
```bash
# Build the image with Nix
nix build .#backendDockerLatest
# Load it into Docker
docker load < result
# Run the container
docker run -p 3100:3100 localhost/phundrak/backend-rust:latest
```
### Troubleshooting
#### Authentication Failures
If you see authentication errors:
1. Verify your `DOCKER_USERNAME` and `DOCKER_PASSWORD` secrets are correct
2. For ghcr.io, ensure your PAT has the correct permissions
3. Check that the `DOCKER_REGISTRY` matches your credentials
#### Build Failures
If the Nix build fails:
1. Test the build locally first: `nix build .#backendDockerLatest`
2. Check the GitHub Actions logs for specific error messages
3. Ensure all dependencies in `flake.nix` are correctly specified
#### Image Not Appearing in Registry
1. Verify the workflow completed successfully in the Actions tab
2. Check that the registry URL is correct
3. For ghcr.io, images appear at: `https://github.com/users/USERNAME/packages/container/IMAGE_NAME`
4. Ensure your token has write permissions
