Issue
I'm trying to build a Python docker image which pip installs from a private repository using ssh. The details of which are in a requirements.txt file.
I've spent a long time reading guides from StackOverflow as well as the official Docker documentation on the subject ...
https://docs.docker.com/develop/develop-images/build_enhancements/#using-ssh-to-access-private-data-in-builds https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/build/#ssh
... and have come up with a Dockerfile which builds and runs fine when using:
$ docker build --ssh default -t build_tester .
However, when I try to do the same in a docker-compose.yml file, I get the following error:
$ docker-compose up
services.build-tester.build Additional property ssh is not allowed
This is the same even when enabling buildkit:
$ COMPOSE_DOCKER_CLI_BUILD=1 DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker-compose up
services.build-tester.build Additional property ssh is not allowed
Project structure
- docker-compose.yml
- build_files
- Dockerfile
- requirements.txt
- app
- app.py
Dockerfile
# syntax=docker/dockerfile:1.2
FROM python:bullseye as builder
RUN mkdir -p /build/
WORKDIR /build/
RUN apt-get update; \
apt-get install -y git; \
rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
RUN mkdir -p -m 0600 ~/.ssh; \
ssh-keyscan -H github.com >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts
RUN python3 -m venv env; \
env/bin/pip install --upgrade pip
COPY requirements.txt .
RUN --mount=type=ssh \
env/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt; \
rm requirements.txt
FROM python:slim as runner
RUN mkdir -p /app/
WORKDIR /app/
COPY --from=builder /build/ .
COPY app/ .
CMD ["env/bin/python", "app.py"]
docker-compose.yml
services:
build-tester:
container_name: build-tester
image: build-tester
build:
context: build_files
dockerfile: Dockerfile
ssh:
- default
If I remove ...
ssh:
- default
... the docker-compose up
command builds the image OK but obviously doesn't run as app.py doesn't have the required packages installed from pip.
I'd really like to be able to get this working in this way if possible so any advice would be much appreciated.
Solution
OK - so ended up being a very simple fix... Just needed to ensure docker-compose was updated to version 2.6 on my Mac.
For some reason brew wasn't updating my docker cask properly so was still running a package from early Jan 2022. Seems --ssh compatibility was added sometime between then and now.
