Our CI uses GitHub Registry to pull and push images to/from by default. Those variables are set automatically by GitHub Actions when you run Airflow workflows in your fork, so they should automatically use your own repository as GitHub Registry to build and keep the images as build image cache.
The variables are automatically set in GitHub actions
| Variable | Default | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| GITHUB_REPOSITORY | apache/airflow |
Prefix of the image. It indicates which registry from GitHub to use. |
| CONSTRAINTS_GITHUB_REPOSITORY | apache/airflow |
Repository where constraints are stored |
| GITHUB_USERNAME | Username to use to login to GitHub | |
| GITHUB_TOKEN | Token to use to login to GitHub. Only used when pushing images on CI. |
The Variables beginning with GITHUB_ cannot be overridden in GitHub
Actions by the workflow. Those variables are set by GitHub Actions
automatically and they are immutable. Therefore if you want to override
them in your own CI workflow and use breeze, you need to pass the
values by corresponding breeze flags --github-repository,
--github-token rather than by setting them as environment variables in
your workflow. Unless you want to keep your own copy of constraints in
orphaned constraints-* branches, the CONSTRAINTS_GITHUB_REPOSITORY
should remain apache/airflow, regardless in which repository the CI
job is run.
One of the variables you might want to override in your own GitHub
Actions workflow when using breeze is --github-repository - you
might want to force it to apache/airflow, because then the cache from
apache/airflow repository will be used and your builds will be much
faster.
Example command to build your CI image efficiently in your own CI workflow:
# GITHUB_REPOSITORY is set automatically in Github Actions so we need to override it with flag
#
breeze ci-image build --github-repository apache/airflow --python 3.10
