GitHub Action: Docker Compose Action

This action runs your docker-compose file and clean up before action finished

Usage

Action

The action will run docker-compose up to start the services defined in the given compose file(s). The compose file(s) can be specified using the compose-file input. Some extra options can be passed to the docker-compose up command using the up-flags input.

Post hook

On post hook, the action will run docker-compose down to clean up the services. In debug mode, the logs of the running services are printed before the cleanup.

Some extra options can be passed to the docker-compose down command using the down-flags input.

Examples

Example Using environment variables

steps:
  - uses: actions/checkout@v4
