Local Docker

Runs the build workflow inside a Docker container on the local machine. No cloud account required.

Requirements​

  • Docker installed and running on the build machine.

Example Workflow​

GitHub Actions (self-hosted runner)​

- uses: game-ci/unity-builder@v4
  with:
    providerStrategy: local-docker
    targetPlatform: StandaloneLinux64
    gitPrivateToken: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

Command Line​

yarn run cli -m cli-build \
  --providerStrategy local-docker \
  --projectPath /path/to/your/project \
  --targetPlatform StandaloneLinux64

Config File Injection​

Inject config files into the Docker container workspace using configFiles. Files are written to game-ci-config/ in the workspace before the container starts:

- uses: game-ci/unity-builder@v4
  with:
    providerStrategy: local-docker
    configFiles: |
      {"settings.json": "{\"quality\": \"high\"}"}

When to Use​

  • You have a self-hosted runner with Docker installed
  • You want container isolation without cloud infrastructure
  • Testing builds locally before deploying to AWS or Kubernetes
