BlueBuild

This is my personal project trying to create a more conise version of the starting point repo all condensed into a single Rust based CLI tool.

Installation

Right now the only way to install this tool is to use cargo.

cargo install --locked blue-build

How to use

Templating

Once you have the CLI tool installed, you can run the following to pull in your recipe file to generate a Containerfile.

bb template -o <CONTAINERFILE> <RECIPE_FILE>

You can then use this with podman or buildah to build and publish your image. Further options can be viewed by running bb template --help

Building

If you don't care about the details of the template, you can run the build command.

bb build ./config/recipe.yaml

This will template out the file and build with buildah or podman. If you're running in Gitlab CI, it will automatically sign your image using Gitlab's own OIDC service. Here's an example of a .gitlab-ci.yaml:

workflow:
  rules:
    - if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH && $CI_OPEN_MERGE_REQUESTS && $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "push"
      when: never
    - if: "$CI_COMMIT_TAG"
    - if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "merge_request_event"
    - if: "$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH && $CI_OPEN_MERGE_REQUESTS"
      when: never
    - if: "$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH"
stages:
  - build
variables:
  ACTION:
    description: "Action to perform for the pipeline."
    value: "build-image"
    options:
      - "build-image"
build-image:
  stage: build
  image: registry.gitlab.com/wunker-bunker/blue-build:alpine
  retry: 2
  rules:
    - if: $ACTION == "build-image"
  parallel:
    matrix:
      - RECIPE:
          - recipe.yml
  id_tokens:
    SIGSTORE_ID_TOKEN:
      aud: sigstore
  script:
    - bb build --push ./config/$RECIPE

Support was also added for building in GitHub! You can use this tool instead of the standard GitHub Actions by using the following .github/workflows/build.yaml:

name: build-ublue
on:
  schedule:
    - cron: "30 16 * * *"
  push:
    branches:
      - live
      - template
      - main
    paths-ignore:
      - "**.md"
  pull_request:
  workflow_dispatch:
jobs:
  ublue-build:

    strategy:

      matrix:
        recipe:
          - recipe.yml

          PR_EVENT_NUMBER: ${{ github.event.number }}
          REGISTRY_TOKEN: ${{ github.token }}
        run: |
          bb build --push ./config/${{ matrix.recipe }}
