Description

When using azurerm_container_registry_task I would like these to be supported:
A) Point to a Dockerfile, for example in a git repo, and run the build right away.
B) Run a build right away, where I'm pointing to a Dockerfile in my Terraform project directory, together with my tf files.

New or Affected Resource(s)

• azurerm_container_registry_task

Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "azurerm_container_registry_task" "example" {
  name                  = "Example"
  container_registry_id = azurerm_container_registry.example.id


  platform {
    os           = "Linux"
    architecture = "amd64"
  }

  docker_step {
    dockerfile_path      = "Dockerfile"
    context_path         = "https://dev.azure.com/<org>/<project>/_git/<repo>"
    context_access_token = "<PAT>"
    image_names          = ["image:latest"]

    # Something like this could be added
    # Terraform task should not finish before the build is finished
    trigger_onetime_run = true
  }

  # And also be able to add the source_trigger as well for future updates
  source_trigger {
    name           = "newcommits"
    events         = ["commit"]
    repository_url = "https://dev.azure.com/<org>/<project>/_git/<repo>"
    source_type    = "VisualStudioTeamService"
    authentication {
      token      = "<PAT>"
      token_type = "PAT"
    }
  }
}

hi @tlfzhylj

Thanks for opening this issue.

This forum is intended to be used for feature enhancements and bugs in the Azure Provider - so that we can keep this forum focused on that we instead ask that broader questions are raised on the Community Discuss forum.

Thanks!

[tlfzhylj]

Thanks for your answer.

What I can find out what I'm asking isn't possible, so if the issue can be open and labeled enhancement I think that would be correct.

I can rewrite the title and description a bit to make it more clear that it is a feature request.

If this one doesn't get opened again, I asked in the community forum as advised: https://discuss.hashicorp.com/t/azure-container-registry-task-possible-to-run-the-task-right-away/34739

[tombuildsstuff]

@tlfzhylj from what I can see this isn't supported in the API right now - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/containerregistry/tasks - so (unless your aware of another API) I don't believe this is possible at this time. As such I think this maybe a Feature Request for Microsoft here, since there would need to be a means of triggering the task one-time (and retrieving the status of it) to be able to be able to achieve this - so in lieu of an API being available I'd recommend opening an issue on the Azure Rest API Specs repository where someone from the Service Team should be able to take a look.

@tombuildsstuff I've looked into this issue and submit a PR for it. The API actually resides in: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/containerregistry/registries%20(tasks)/schedule-run instead.

@magodo oh nice find - thanks :)

Hello, any news on this?

[piizei]

would be great to get this working, but meanwhile I'm using this as a workaround:

resource "azapi_resource" "run_acr_task" {
  name = azurerm_container_registry.acr.name 
  location = var.location
  parent_id = azurerm_container_registry.acr.id
  type = "Microsoft.ContainerRegistry/registries/taskRuns@2019-06-01-preview"
  body = jsonencode({
    properties = {
       runRequest = {
         type = "DockerBuildRequest"
         sourceLocation = "https://github.com/Azure-Samples/aci-helloworld.git#master"
         dockerFilePath = "Dockerfile"
         platform = {
           os = "Linux"
          }
         imageNames = ["helloworld:{{.Run.ID}}", "helloworld:latest"]
       }
    }
  })
  ignore_missing_property = true
}
