| ## Usage
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Docker Hub
 | |
| 
 | |
| To authenticate against [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com) it's strongly recommended to create a
 | |
| [personal access token](https://docs.docker.com/docker-hub/access-tokens/) as an alternative to your password.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |
| jobs:
 | |
|   login:
 | |
|     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 | |
|     steps:
 | |
|       -
 | |
|         name: Login to Docker Hub
 | |
|         uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           username: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_USERNAME }}
 | |
|           password: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### GitHub Container Registry
 | |
| 
 | |
| To authenticate against the [GitHub Container Registry](https://docs.github.com/en/packages/working-with-a-github-packages-registry/working-with-the-container-registry),
 | |
| use the [`GITHUB_TOKEN`](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/authentication-in-a-workflow) for the best
 | |
| security and experience.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |
| jobs:
 | |
|   login:
 | |
|     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 | |
|     steps:
 | |
|       -
 | |
|         name: Login to GitHub Container Registry
 | |
|         uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           registry: ghcr.io
 | |
|           username: ${{ github.actor }}
 | |
|           password: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| You may need to [manage write and read access of GitHub Actions](https://docs.github.com/en/packages/managing-github-packages-using-github-actions-workflows/publishing-and-installing-a-package-with-github-actions#upgrading-a-workflow-that-accesses-ghcrio)
 | |
| for repositories in the container settings.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can also use a [personal access token (PAT)](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token)
 | |
| with the [appropriate scopes](https://docs.github.com/en/packages/getting-started-with-github-container-registry/migrating-to-github-container-registry-for-docker-images#authenticating-with-the-container-registry).
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### GitLab
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |
| jobs:
 | |
|   login:
 | |
|     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 | |
|     steps:
 | |
|       -
 | |
|         name: Login to GitLab
 | |
|         uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           registry: registry.gitlab.com
 | |
|           username: ${{ secrets.GITLAB_USERNAME }}
 | |
|           password: ${{ secrets.GITLAB_PASSWORD }}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Azure Container Registry (ACR)
 | |
| 
 | |
| [Create a service principal](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-registry/container-registry-auth-service-principal#create-a-service-principal)
 | |
| with access to your container registry through the [Azure CLI](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli)
 | |
| and take note of the generated service principal's ID (also called _client ID_) and password (also called _client secret_).
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |
| jobs:
 | |
|   login:
 | |
|     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 | |
|     steps:
 | |
|       -
 | |
|         name: Login to ACR
 | |
|         uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           registry: <registry-name>.azurecr.io
 | |
|           username: ${{ secrets.AZURE_CLIENT_ID }}
 | |
|           password: ${{ secrets.AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET }}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Replace `<registry-name>` with the name of your registry.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Google Container Registry (GCR)
 | |
| 
 | |
| > [Google Artifact Registry](#google-artifact-registry-gar) is the evolution of Google Container Registry. As a
 | |
| > fully-managed service with support for both container images and non-container artifacts. If you currently use
 | |
| > Google Container Registry, use the information [on this page](https://cloud.google.com/artifact-registry/docs/transition/transition-from-gcr)
 | |
| > to learn about transitioning to Google Artifact Registry. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can use either workload identity federation based keyless authentication or service account based authentication.
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### Workload identity federation based authentication
 | |
| 
 | |
| Configure the workload identity federation for github actions in gcloud (for steps, [refer here](https://github.com/google-github-actions/auth#setting-up-workload-identity-federation)). In the steps, your service account should the ability to push to GCR. Then use google-github-actions/auth action for authentication using workload identity like below:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |
| jobs:
 | |
|   login:
 | |
|     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 | |
|     steps:
 | |
|     - id: 'auth'
 | |
|       name: 'Authenticate to Google Cloud'
 | |
|       uses: 'google-github-actions/auth@v0'
 | |
|       with:
 | |
|         token_format: 'access_token'
 | |
|         workload_identity_provider: '<workload_identity_provider>'
 | |
|         service_account: '<service_account>'
 | |
| 
 | |
|     - name: Login to GCR
 | |
|       uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|       with:
 | |
|         registry: gcr.io
 | |
|         username: oauth2accesstoken
 | |
|         password: ${{ steps.auth.outputs.access_token }}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Replace `<workload_identity_provider>` with configured workload identity provider. For steps to configure, [refer here](https://github.com/google-github-actions/auth#setting-up-workload-identity-federation).
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Replace `<service_account>` with configured service account in workload identity provider which has access to push to GCR
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### Service account based authentication
 | |
| 
 | |
| Use a service account with the ability to push to GCR and [configure access control](https://cloud.google.com/container-registry/docs/access-control).
 | |
| Then create and download the JSON key for this service account and save content of `.json` file
 | |
| [as a secret](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/creating-and-storing-encrypted-secrets#creating-encrypted-secrets-for-a-repository)
 | |
| called `GCR_JSON_KEY` in your GitHub repo. Ensure you set the username to `_json_key`,
 | |
| or `_json_key_base64` if you use a base64-encoded key.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |
| jobs:
 | |
|   login:
 | |
|     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 | |
|     steps:
 | |
|       -
 | |
|         name: Login to GCR
 | |
|         uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           registry: gcr.io
 | |
|           username: _json_key
 | |
|           password: ${{ secrets.GCR_JSON_KEY }}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Google Artifact Registry (GAR)
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can use either workload identity federation based keyless authentication or  service account based authentication.
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### Workload identity federation based authentication
 | |
| 
 | |
| Configure the workload identity federation for github actions in gcloud (for steps, [refer here](https://github.com/google-github-actions/auth#setting-up-workload-identity-federation)). In the steps, your service account should the ability to push to GAR. Then use google-github-actions/auth action for authentication using workload identity like below:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |

|         name: 'Authenticate to Google Cloud'
 | |
|         uses: 'google-github-actions/auth@v0'
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           token_format: 'access_token'
 | |
|           workload_identity_provider: '<workload_identity_provider>'
 | |
|           service_account: '<service_account>'
 | |
|       
 | |
|       - name: Login to GAR
 | |
|         uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           registry: <location>-docker.pkg.dev
 | |
|           username: oauth2accesstoken
 | |
|           password: ${{ steps.auth.outputs.access_token }}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| > Replace `<workload_identity_provider>` with configured workload identity provider
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Replace `<service_account>` with configured service account in workload identity provider which has access to push to GCR
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Replace `<location>` with the regional or multi-regional [location](https://cloud.google.com/artifact-registry/docs/repo-organize#locations)
 | |
| > of the repository where the image is stored.
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### Service account based authentication
 | |
| 
 | |
| Use a service account with the ability to push to GAR and [configure access control](https://cloud.google.com/artifact-registry/docs/access-control).
 | |
| Then create and download the JSON key for this service account and save content of `.json` file
 | |
| [as a secret](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/creating-and-storing-encrypted-secrets#creating-encrypted-secrets-for-a-repository)
 | |
| called `GAR_JSON_KEY` in your GitHub repo. Ensure you set the username to `_json_key`,
 | |
| or `_json_key_base64` if you use a base64-encoded key.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |
| jobs:
 | |
|   login:
 | |
|     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 | |
|     steps:
 | |
|       -
 | |
|         name: Login to GAR
 | |
|         uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           registry: <location>-docker.pkg.dev
 | |
|           username: _json_key
 | |
|           password: ${{ secrets.GAR_JSON_KEY }}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Replace `<location>` with the regional or multi-regional [location](https://cloud.google.com/artifact-registry/docs/repo-organize#locations)
 | |
| > of the repository where the image is stored.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR)
 | |
| 
 | |
| Use an IAM user with the ability to [push to ECR with `AmazonEC2ContainerRegistryPowerUser` managed policy for example](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECR/latest/userguide/ecr_managed_policies.html#AmazonEC2ContainerRegistryPowerUser).
 | |
| Then create and download access keys and save `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` [as secrets](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/creating-and-storing-encrypted-secrets#creating-encrypted-secrets-for-a-repository)
 | |
| in your GitHub repo.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |
| jobs:
 | |
|   login:
 | |
|     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 | |
|     steps:
 | |
|       -
 | |
|         name: Login to ECR
 | |
|         uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           registry: <aws-account-number>.dkr.ecr.<region>.amazonaws.com
 | |
|           username: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
 | |
|           password: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you need to log in to Amazon ECR registries associated with other accounts, you can use the `AWS_ACCOUNT_IDS`
 | |
| environment variable:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |

 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Only available with [AWS CLI version 1](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ecr/get-login.html)
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can also use the [Configure AWS Credentials](https://github.com/aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials) action in
 | |
| combination with this action:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| name: ci
 | |
| 
 | |
| on:
 | |
|   push:
 | |
|     branches: main
 | |
| 
 | |
| jobs:
 | |
|   login:
 | |
|     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
 | |
|     steps:
 | |
|       -
 | |
|         name: Configure AWS Credentials
 | |
|         uses: aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           aws-access-key-id: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}

 | |
|         name: Login to ECR
 | |
|         uses: docker/login-action@v1
 | |
|         with:
 | |
|           registry: <aws-account-number>.dkr.ecr.<region>.amazonaws.com

 | |
| > Replace `<aws-account-number>` and `<region>` with their respective values.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### AWS Public Elastic Container Registry (ECR)
 | |
| 
 | |
| Use an IAM user with the ability to [push to ECR Public with `AmazonElasticContainerRegistryPublicPowerUser` managed policy for example](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECR/latest/public/public-ecr-managed-policies.html#AmazonElasticContainerRegistryPublicPowerUser).
 | |
| Then create and download access keys and save `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` [as secrets](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/creating-and-storing-encrypted-secrets#creating-encrypted-secrets-for-a-repository)

| ## Keep up-to-date with GitHub Dependabot
 | |
| 
 | |
| Since [Dependabot](https://docs.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/keeping-your-actions-up-to-date-with-github-dependabot)
 | |
| has [native GitHub Actions support](https://docs.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/configuration-options-for-dependency-updates#package-ecosystem),
 | |
| to enable it on your GitHub repo all you need to do is add the `.github/dependabot.yml` file:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| version: 2
 | |
| updates:
 | |
|   # Maintain dependencies for GitHub Actions
 | |
|   - package-ecosystem: "github-actions"
 | |
|     directory: "/"
 | |
|     schedule:
 | |
|       interval: "daily"
 | |
| ```
