can this be used with GitHub package registry?

Hi,

I’m currently trying to figure out if this action can be used with GitHub package registry. So this was my attempt:

      with:
        username: ${{ env.GITHUB_ACTOR }}
        password: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
        registry: docker.pkg.github.com
        ...

However, this nonetheless fails with

Error: both username and password must be set to login

I suspect the username is the problem, however this is how this docker action is authenticating: https://github.com/matootie/github-docker/blob/master/index.js#L39

I do not want to add a personal access token so I could publish this with my username and my personal access token, although that would probably work.

Does anyone know how to make this work with the injected GITHUB_TOKEN?

Hi @leoschweizer thanks for your feedback. I’ll look into this as it should “just work”.

Have you tried using the github context vars instead of env and secrets? https://help.github.com/en/actions/reference/context-and-expression-syntax-for-github-actions#github-context

E.g.

username: ${{ github.actor }}
password: ${{ github.token }}

Thanks for checking. I’ll add an example to the readme for others to use
