One of the problems I needed to solve was that I needed build multiple images, but I didn't want to have a code block for each. After some research I found a way to loop over multiple values in GitHub Actions using matrices.
In the example below, I set three variables in the matrix and each of these are called in the Build and push step.
```yaml
build_and_push:
permissions:
contents: write
packages: write
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
strategy:
matrix:
include:
- image: ghcr.io/ssi-dk/sap-web
dockerfile: app/Dockerfile
path: app
- image: ghcr.io/ssi-dk/sap-api
dockerfile: web/Dockerfile
path: web
- image: ghcr.io/ssi-dk/bifrost-queue-broker
dockerfile: bifrost/bifrost_queue_broker/Dockerfile
path: bifrost/bifrost_queue_broker
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v4
- name: Login to GitHub Container Registry
uses: docker/login-action@v3
with:
registry: ghcr.io
username: ${{ github.actor }}
password: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
# loops over all images in the matrix defined on top
- name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v5
with:
context: ${{ matrix.path }}
platforms: linux/amd64
tags: ${{ matrix.image }}:${{ needs.prepare_tag.outputs.tag }}
file: ${{ matrix.dockerfile }}
push: true
```
