[BM] How to build a docker container from gitlab using env file

[philippe.camelio_3885]

Hi guys,

I am looking for some help. I am trying to build a container using BM, and can't figure out how to pass env file to docker build

I am using a simple git repo which contains:

• Dockerfile
• myapp.env

How to config Docker::Build-Image to use myapp.env

I am using a very simple script :

Git::Checkout-Code();
Docker::Build-Image();

Any advice or sample is welcome

Hi @philippe-camelio_3885,

Based on that script, as long as your Dockerfile is at the root of the $WorkingDirectory (From defaults to $WorkingDirectory) and the myapp.env is specified within the Dockerfile, that script should work. Can you please tell me what you are seeing while running Build-Image?

Thanks,
Rich

Hi @rhessinger
I will dig in this direction.
I let you know.

Thanks for the tip.

I finally found how to handle properly (I guess) the variable
The Dockerfile looks like:

ARG SOME_VAR=default_var

FROM some_image:some_version

WORKDIR /usr/src/app
RUN ....

and the Deploy script like :

Git::Checkout-Code();
Docker::Build-Image
(
    DockerfileVariables: %(SOME_VAR:myvar),
    Tag: $ReleaseNumber-pre.$BuildNumber,
    RemoveAfterPush: true
);

bur I have signing problem to push container in proget. => I start a new thread
