Handle tags and labels

If you come from v1 and want an "automatic" tag management and OCI Image Format Specification for labels, you can do it in a dedicated step. The following workflow will use the Docker metadata action to handle tags and labels based on GitHub actions events and Git metadata.

name: ci

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '0 10 * * *' # everyday at 10am
  push:
    branches:
      - '**'
    tags:
      - 'v*.*.*'
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - 'master'

jobs:
  docker:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      -
        name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      -
        name: Docker meta
        id: meta
        uses: docker/metadata-action@v3
        with:
          # list of Docker images to use as base name for tags
          images: |
            name/app
            ghcr.io/username/app            
          # generate Docker tags based on the following events/attributes
          tags: |
            type=schedule
            type=ref,event=branch
            type=ref,event=pr
            type=semver,pattern={{version}}
            type=semver,pattern={{major}}.{{minor}}
            type=semver,pattern={{major}}
            type=sha
