About

Generate Dockerfile and docker-bake.hcl for docker/bake-action to build Spring Boot Docker Image

Explaination

This action generates a Dockerfile and a docker-bake.hcl for docker/bake-action to build a Spring Boot Docker image. And the structure of the container image is as follows:

  1. Extract JAR file from the Spring Boot fat JAR archive
  2. Copy the extracted layers to /app directory, leveraging the Docker layer caching mechanism
  3. Add /java-entrypoint.sh script, but not configure it as the entrypoint (default)

Note

Application running on Spring Boot v3 or higher should use the jarmode=tools to enable layering. Any other version use the jarmode=layertools.

Starting from Spring Boot 2.4, layering is enabled by default.
If you are using any version lower than 2.4, layering feature must be explicitly enabled.

Usage

This action use a pre-defined Dockerfile and docker-bake.hcl to generate a metatadata for building a Spring Boot Docker image.

There are many different ways to build a Spring Boot Docker image. This action is just one of them. You can find more information about Spring Boot Docker image in the Spring Boot Docker guide.

Feel free to explore other methods that fit your needs.

Bake definition

This action also handles a bake definition file that can be used with the Docker Bake action. You just have to declare an empty target named spring-boot-bake and inherit from it.

Note: You don't need to define dockerfile and context in the bake definition file. They are automatically set by the action.

// docker-bake.hcl
target "gradle-metadata-action" {}

target "spring-boot-bake" {
  inherits = ["gradle-metadata-action"]
}

target "default" {
  inherits = ["spring-boot-bake"]
  platforms = [
    "linux/amd64",
    "linux/arm/v6",
    "linux/arm/v7",
    "linux/arm64",
    "linux/386"
  ]
}

Customize the image:

To customize the final image or to provide you own Dockerfile. Please do following:

// docker-bake.hcl
target "gradle-metadata-action" {}

target "spring-boot-bake" {
  inherits = ["gradle-metadata-action"]
}

target "default" {
  contexts = {
    "spring-boot-bake" = "target:spring-boot-bake"
  }
  platforms = [
    "linux/amd64",
    "linux/arm/v6",
    "linux/arm/v7",
    "linux/arm64",
    "linux/386"
  ]
}

And in your Dockerfile, use spring-boot-bake as your base image.

FROM spring-boot-bake

# Add your custom Dockerfile here

You can read more here "Using a result of one target as a base image in another target".

Change the WORKDIR:

You can change the WORKDIR by setting the SPRING_BOOT_BAKE_APPDIR argument.

target "spring-boot-bake" {
  inherits = ["gradle-metadata-action"]
  args = {
    SPRING_BOOT_BAKE_APPDIR = "/app"
  }
}
