Usage

To use this action in your workflow, create a .github/workflows/docker-build-push.yml file in your repository with the following content:

name: Build and Push Docker Image

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main  # or any branch you want to trigger the action

jobs:
  build-and-push:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: Build and Push Docker Image
        uses: yuri-val/build-and-push-docker-image-action@v1
        with:
          telegram_to: ${{ secrets.TELEGRAM_TO }}
          telegram_token: ${{ secrets.TELEGRAM_TOKEN }}
          docker_hub_username: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_HUB_USERNAME }}
          docker_hub_access_token: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_HUB_ACCESS_TOKEN }}
          docker_repo_name: your-repo-name

Make sure to set up the following secrets in your repository:

• TELEGRAM_TO: Your Telegram recipient/chat ID
• TELEGRAM_TOKEN: Your Telegram bot token
• DOCKER_HUB_USERNAME: Your Docker Hub username
• DOCKER_HUB_ACCESS_TOKEN: Your Docker Hub access token

Requirements

• Your repository must contain a Dockerfile in the root directory.
• You need to have a Docker Hub account and create an access token.
• You need to create a Telegram bot and obtain its token.

How it works

1. The action checks out your repository.
2. It logs in to Docker Hub using the provided credentials.
3. The Docker image is built and pushed to Docker Hub with two tags:
   • A date-based tag (e.g., 23.05.15.1234)
   • The latest tag
4. A new GitHub release is created with an auto-generated changelog.
5. Telegram notifications are sent at the start of the process, on successful completion, and in case of failure.
