Docker Commit action is a premium action which allows you to create a new Docker image from changes made in a Docker container.
Docker Commit
Name
A friendly name for this action (will be displayed in the actions workflow area).
Enabled
Determines if this action will be run within the relevant stage.
Working Directory
The directory from where the Docker command will be run. If left empty, this defaults to the workspace folder.
Container ID
ID of the container to create a new image from.
Target Image
Target name and tag for the image in the format [registry/]user_name/image-name[:tag].
Author
The name and optionally email address of the user committing the change. e.g. "Hugh Cornwell hugh@thestranglers.com".
Docker command line option: --author
Commit Message
A message to describe to commit.
Docker command line option: --message
Change
A Dockerfile instruction to apply to the created image.
Supported Dockerfile instructions: CMD | ENTRYPOINT | ENV | EXPOSE | LABEL | ONBUILD | USER | VOLUME | WORKDIR
Docker command line option: --change
Specify remote Docker host
Tick to open a new Host tab to specify an alternative Docker host to the one local to the agent.
Using
The version of Docker to use when running the Docker Commit command. It is important that the correct version of Docker is installed on the agent.
Host
Docker Host URL
The address of the host running the Docker daemon. This can be in the form of a URL or any IP4 Address. If a non-standard port is required simply use the <IPAddress>:<Port> specification format.
Use TLS
Tick to connect to the Docker host using TLS where the host is not verified against a CA.
Verify TLS
This is available only if 'Use TLS' is ticked. Tick to verify the TLS certificate with a root authority.
When using Verify TLS, if the host's certification authority (CA) is not trusted by the agent, then the connection is not established.
CA Certificate
The path to Docker host CA certificate file.
Certificate
The path to Docker host certificate file
Docker Host Certificate Key
The path to a PEM format file containing the key for the accessing the Docker Host Certificate.
Options
Pause container during commit
By default, the container being committed and its processes will be paused while the image is committed. This reduces the likelihood of encountering data corruption during the process of creating the commit. If this behaviour is undesired, clear this option.
Docker command line option: --pause.
Log standard output
Tick to log standard output.
Log Level
The amount of information detail to display in the build log.
Timeout (in seconds)
How long to wait for the action to finish running before timing out. Leaving this blank (or zero) will default to 86400 seconds (24 hours).
Treat failure as warning
Tick to continue build on failure marking the action with a warning status.
Ignore warnings
If this is ticked, any warnings logged will not mark the action with a warning status.
Environment
Environment Variables
Multiple environment variables can be defined - one per line. These are set before the command line is run.
Log environment variables
If this is ticked, environment variable values are written to the build log.
Generate system environment variables
Tick this checkbox to set up a list of new environment variables prefixed with 'ContinuaCI.' for all current system expression objects and variables.
Mask sensitive variable values in system environment variables
This checkbox is visible only if the 'Generate system environment variables' checkbox is ticked.
If this is ticked, the values of any variables marked as sensitive will be masked with **** when setting system environment variables. Clear this to expose the values.
