cloud build kaniko

using Kaniko Executor with Google Cloud Build

kani-what?

Maybe for some reason you don't like using docker build, you want to be cool and use gcr.io/kaniko-project/executor if you're not building things in subdirectories, you're all set. Else, read on.

options

cloudbuild.yaml dir: this sets the working directory, defaults to the project root (/workspace) kaniko will pick the Dockerfile from here (if not overridden by the -f flag)

kaniko-project/executor -f: Dockerfile, defaults to Dockerfile relative paths are from the cloudbuild working directory

kaniko-project/executor: -c: kaniko build context, defaults to the project root (/workspace) also must be an absolute path (?)

building in a subdir

to get the equivalent of dir: subdir and docker build .

you need dir: subdir and kaniko-project/executor -c /workspace/subdir
