@sosy/nx-docker-build-plugin

This plugin is for generating Docker images for NX apps.

Usage

Add a new target with the builder @sosy/nx-docker-build-plugin:build to the applications in your workspace.json.

For the build the plugin will automatically provide following build args:

• NX_PROJECT_NAME: the name of the project
• NX_PROJECT_ROOT: the root directory of the project
• NX_PROJECT_OUTPUT_PATH: The output path of the build task of the project. This will only be defined if there is a build target for the project which has options.outputPath defined.

Options

option	type	default	description
dockerContext	string	"."	The directory for the context of the docker build.
dockerFile	string	"Dockerfile"	The dockerfile which should be used.
imageName	string	""	The name used for the docker image name. If empty, the projectName will be used.
imageSeparator	string	"/"	The separator which is used for creating the docker image name
imagePrefix	string	""	The prefix for the docker image name.
tag	string	latest	The tag used for the docker image.
push	boolean	false	If true, the created docker image will be pushed.
buildArgs	string[]	[]	Docker build arguments which will be used in the docker build. This arguments should be provided in the workspace.json.
envBuildArgs	string[]	[]	Docker build arguments which will be used in the docker build. This arguments should be provided with the command execution. This can be useful for providing extra arguments in the CI.

The docker image which will be for the created, will be named

• ${imagePrefix}${separator}${imageName}:${imageTag} if imagePrefix is not empty
• ${imageName}:${imageTag} if imagePrefix is empty

Following configuration could be added to the workspace.json as projects.app-example.architect.docker-build
