📖 Usage Examples

🔗 Cross-Repository Usage

To use these reusable workflows from another repository, reference them using the full repository path:

# In your project's .github/workflows/deploy.yaml
name: Build and Deploy

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]

jobs:
  build:
    # Reference the reusable workflow from this repository
    uses: kkho/workflows/.github/workflows/build-push.yaml@main
    with:
      app_name: "my-application"
      system_name: "my-system"
      environment: "prod"
      container_registry: "ghcr.io"
      tags: "ghcr.io/my-system/my-application:latest"
      dockerfile: "Dockerfile"
      dotnet_version: "8.0.x"
    secrets:
      GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
      AZURE_CLIENT_ID: ${{ secrets.AZURE_CLIENT_ID }}
      AZURE_TENANT_ID: ${{ secrets.AZURE_TENANT_ID }}
      CODECOV_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.CODECOV_TOKEN }}
      SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL: ${{ secrets.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL }}

  notify:
    needs: build
    if: always()
    uses: kkho/workflows/.github/workflows/slack-message.yaml@main
    with:
      channel: "#deployments"
      message: |
        Build completed for ${{ github.repository }}
        Status: ${{ needs.build.result == 'success' && '✅ Success' || '❌ Failed' }}
        Commit: ${{ github.sha }}
      color: ${{ needs.build.result == 'success' && 'good' || 'danger' }}
    secrets:
      SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL: ${{ secrets.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL }}

🏷️ Version Pinning

For production use, pin to a specific version instead of @main:

uses: kkho/workflows/.github/workflows/[email protected]
# or use a commit SHA
uses: kkho/workflows/.github/workflows/build-push.yaml@abc123

Basic Usage

name: Build and Deploy

    uses: kkho/workflows/.github/workflows/build-push.yaml@main
    with:
      app_name: "my-api"
      system_name: "payment"
      environment: "prod"
      tags: |
        myregistry.azurecr.io/payment-api:latest
        myregistry.azurecr.io/payment-api:v${{ github.run_number }}
      version: "v${{ github.run_number }}"
    secrets:
      GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GH_TOKEN }}
      AZURE_CLIENT_ID: ${{ secrets.AZURE_CLIENT_ID }}

      SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL: ${{ secrets.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL }}

Using Slack Notifications Only

steps:
  - name: Notify deployment success
    uses: your-org/workflows/.github/workflows/slack-message/action.yaml@main
    with:
      slack-webhook-url: ${{ secrets.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL }}
      channel: "#deployments"
      message: "🚀 Successfully deployed ${{ github.repository }} to production!"

🏷️ Tagging Strategy

The workflow supports flexible tagging based on environment:

Production (prod):
- latest tag enabled
- Uses semantic versioning if provided
- SHA-based tags for traceability
Non-Production:
- Environment-specific tags (dev_latest, staging_latest)
- SHA-based tags for traceability
- Branch-based tags for feature branches
