GitHub Action for building LaTeX and Markdown documents using a Makefile.

Base image

The Docker image is built based on the configuration in document-builder/ and it is deployed on Docker Hub.

To build the image, navigate to the document-builder/ directory.

cd document-builder
docker build --tag ldbc/document-builder:2021 .
docker tag ldbc/document-builder:2021 ldbc/document-builder:latest

To deploy the image on Docker Hub, run:

docker push ldbc/document-builder:2021
docker push ldbc/document-builder:latest

Local usage

To use this Docker image, create a Makefile that performs the required build steps. Then, test the image as follows;

docker run --rm -v `pwd`:"/github/workspace" ldbc/document-builder [arguments]

The [arguments] are optional and are passed to the Makefile.

Usage with GitHub Actions

Create a .yml workflow file in your repository under .github/workflows/. For example, to run make ci, use the following configuration:

jobs:
  job_name:
    runs-on: ...
    name: ...
    steps:
    - name: Build PDFs with the LaTeX engine in Docker
      uses: ldbc/document-builder-actions@main
      with:
        makefile-arguments: ci
