Automate your deployments by integrating Magic Containers with GitHub Actions. When you push changes to your repository, your workflow can build a Docker image, push it to a container registry, and trigger a rolling update on Magic Containers.

​
Prerequisites

  • An application already deployed on the Magic Containers platform
  • A GitHub repository containing a Dockerfile or valid build context
  • Container registry credentials (use GITHUB_TOKEN for GitHub Container Registry, or personal access tokens for DockerHub)

​
Quickstart

Add a step to your GitHub Actions workflow with the following inputs: app_id, api_key, container, and image_tag. This triggers a rolling update whenever a new image is built and pushed. 
name: Update container image when pushing to main

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - "main"

jobs:
  build:
    name: Build and deploy
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: docker login
        uses: docker/login-action@v3
        with:
          registry: ghcr.io
          username: ${{ github.actor }}
          password: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

      - name: docker build and push
        uses: docker/build-push-action@v5
        with:
          context: .
          push: true
          tags: ghcr.io/${{ github.repository }}:${{ github.sha }}

      - name: Update container image on Magic Containers
        uses: BunnyWay/actions/container-update-image@main
        with:
          app_id: ${{ vars.APP_ID }}
          api_key: ${{ secrets.BUNNYNET_API_KEY }}
          container: app
          image_tag: "${{ github.sha }}"
