Image that references GH_ACCESS_TOKEN

[alex-96-eng]

I am trying to use this actions file, but I get an error because my image references an internal private repo. Here is the image:

FROM python:3.10-alpine

ENV LISTEN_PORT=8000
EXPOSE 8000

WORKDIR /app
ARG GH_ACCESS_TOKEN
COPY requirements.txt /

RUN apk update && \
  apk add --no-cache --virtual .build-deps cargo make gcc g++ python3-dev musl-dev libxml2-dev libxslt-dev libffi-dev openssl-dev && \
  apk add --no-cache postgresql-dev libstdc++ libxslt git && \
  git config --global url.https://$GH_ACCESS_TOKEN@github.com/.insteadOf https://github.com/ && \
  pip install --no-cache-dir -U pip wheel versioneer && \
  pip install --no-cache-dir -r /requirements.txt && \
  apk del .build-deps

The actions file fails due to this line:

git config --global url.https://$GH_ACCESS_TOKEN@github.com/.insteadOf https://github.com/ && \

because:

#8 20.38   Running command git clone --filter=blob:none --quiet https://github.com/sayhiya-org/core-commons /tmp/pip-install-0_bkim9g/commons_9840c85f3d994d04be3a73d4d994c6fd
#8 20.57   fatal: could not read Password for 'https://github.com/': No such device or address
#8 20.57   error: subprocess-exited-with-error

How can I pass through the password?

After reading more, I try to use the extra_build_args attribute and have something like:

extra_build_args: GH_ACCESS_TOKEN=${{ secrets.GH_ACCESS_TOKEN }}

but I get:

ERROR: "docker buildx build" requires exactly 1 argument.

Yep, actually, I'm using this action in the same way that you do, but I have this line with username:

RUN git config --global url."https://GitHub-Username:${GITHUBCOM_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN}@github.com".insteadOf "https://github.com"

In my case, GitHub-Username is vitr, and it works OK for me.
I believe this is the correct syntax for GitHub private repos:

https://<YOUR_USERNAME>:<YOUR_TOKEN>@github.com
