GitHub Action / Docker container for s3_website

GitHub Action and Docker container to run s3_website

Docker Usage

This container has been published to Docker Hub and can be used as a container. To run it, you'd run something like:

docker run --rm -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY 
-e S3_BUCKET -e AWS_CLOUDFRONT_DISTRIBUTION --mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)",target=/site,readonly 
justinharringa/s3_website push --site _site

If you don't pass any arguments you'll see the equivalent of s3_website help. Note that you'll mount your host location into /site and will also need to pass in any environment variables that your s3_website.yml or s3_website itself requires.

Docker Hub - justinharringa/s3_website

GitHub Actions Usage

The following example uses this GitHub Action to push the contents of the build folder to an S3 bucket and update a CloudFront distribution. It still requires that you provide an s3_website.yml such as s3_website.yml.

      - name: Deploy
        uses: docker://justinharringa/s3_website:master
        with:
          args: 'push --site build'
        env:
          AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
          AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
          S3_BUCKET: ${{ secrets.S3_BUCKET }}
          AWS_CLOUDFRONT_DISTRIBUTION: ${{ secrets.AWS_CLOUDFRONT_DISTRIBUTION }}

Why?

I have been using s3_website for quite some time and it works great (huge thanks to Lauri Lehmijoki / Philippe Creux!!). I am giving GitHub Actions a shot and want to use s3_website within a Docker container both in GitHub Actions and also for some other workflows where I don't really want to have to worry about making sure the Java/Ruby bits are correct and available. Thus far, this seems to work out quite well. Ideally, I'd like to contribute the Dockerfile to s3_website.
