Demo: Run fcct with Github Actions to automatically generate an Ignition file

eriksjolund · September 7, 2020, 7:18pm

Here is a minimal Github repo that generates an Ignition file
with Github Actions

The workflow file that triggers the running of fcct is here

eriksjolund/run-fcct-with-github-actions/blob/master/.github/workflows/fcct.yml

name: fcct
on: 
  push:
    branch:
      - master

jobs:
  run_fcct:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - run: |
          mkdir output
      - uses: docker://quay.io/coreos/fcct:release
        with:
          args: --pretty --strict -d ./files -o output/example.ign example.fcc
      - uses: actions/upload-artifact@v2
        with:
          name: example.ign
          path: output/example.ign

I created this repo as a minimal demo in case anyone might be interested.

Thanks for the heads-up, this is really nice! I see this is directly using docker://quay.io/coreos/fcct:release, so it’s great to see the flow is working end-to-end.

For more visibility, perhaps you want to embed the example and a longer description in our tutorial section at https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-coreos/tutorials/? I’d be happy to see something like “Hooking an automated fcct flow to GitHub Actions” there.

Yes, that is a good idea. I’ll see what I can do. It might take some time though …
