on:
  push:
    branches:
      - staging
      
name: Deploy to AWS ECS
jobs:
  deploy:
    name: Deploy
    runs-on: ubuntu-18.04

    steps:
    - name: Checkout
      uses: actions/checkout@v2

    - name: Configure AWS credentials
      id: aws-config
      uses: aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v1
      with:
        aws-access-key-id: ${{ secrets['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID'] }}
        aws-secret-access-key: ${{ secrets['AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY'] }}
        aws-region: ${{ secrets['AWS_REGION'] }}

    - name: Inject slug and short variables
      uses: rlespinasse/github-slug-action@v3.x

    - name: Build and publish image
      id: build-image
      uses: fagiani/buildpacks-action@v0.3.0
      with:
        registry: ${{ steps['aws-config']['outputs']['aws-account-id'] }}.dkr.ecr.${{ secrets['AWS_REGION'] }}.amazonaws.com
        image: novonoticias-wordpress-${{ env['GITHUB_REF_SLUG'] }}
        tag: ${{ env['GITHUB_SHA_SHORT'] }}
        path: .
        builder: 'heroku/buildpacks:18'
        buildpacks: "heroku/nodejs-engine@0.7.3 buildpacks/nodejs-yarn-buildpack heroku/procfile@0.6.2"
        publish: true

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a repository with .github/workflow/deploy.yml
  2. Create a .secrets with this values:
    AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    AWS_REGION=us-east-1
    AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
    WP_DB_URL_STAGINGhttp://staging.myawesomesite.com
  3. Run act --bind -v
