Hi all. I’m using Pulumi Crosswalk for AWS to build & push a Docker image to ECR. This works fine locally, but fails in GitLab CI (presumably because the

pulumi-nodejs

image I’m using doesn’t contain the docker binary). What’s the best practice for dealing with this setup? I’d like to use the

pulumi-nodejs

image if possible, so should I manually install docker in the CI script? Or is it better to use the

docker

image and install Pulumi?

Some more details:

// index.ts

const repository = new awsx.ecr.Repository(...)
repository.buildAndPushImage({
  context: sourcePath,
  extraOptions: ["--platform=linux/amd64"],
})

In the CI pipeline:

error: Error: ' docker build --platform=linux/amd64 ../app -t d2f5d933-container' failed with exit code 1

The GitLab Runner is using the docker executor on a container using the

docker:20.10.8

image, running in privileged mode (following advice in GitLab docs for building Docker images inside Docker).
