added a git workflow for docker multiarch publish

[krasi-georgiev]

closes: #43

Only the alpine image is multiarch as the official java doesn't support multiarch for debian.

It will auto-publish for all branches and it is triggered by any push. I can also set it to be triggered by only changes to the dockerfiles, but that is error prone if you decide to refactor the folder structure at some point.

You can see an example of a successful push here

Why do you edit README.md?
Why do you use 4 spaces in YAML?

Why do you edit README.md?

because it is much easier to just mention that the images are constructed from the branch name instead of listing each one. less error prone. This way don't have to edit the readme every time you add a new docker image

Why do you use 4 spaces in YAML?

not sure what happened, I fixed it.

hi, I tried to deploy traccar/traccar:latest and also traccar/traccar:4.10-alpine to my pine64 running armbian buster.
But badly both versions wasn't running and the log shows this error:

standard_init_linux.go:211: exec user process caused "exec format error"

Can anyone help me to get it working? I think it also caused of arm compatibility? Is there anything to do to get your multiarch version running?

Thanks so much!
Tobi

Files changed=598 - what is it???
This is small dedicated repository for build app in docker and nothing more!

[krasi-georgiev]

is the team interested in this contribution or shall I close it?

[tananaev]

I'll defer to @magna-z to decide.

README.md is broken.
This is statically file with information about project. Why make a template out of it?

[magna-z]

Why not docker/build-push-action?

[krasi-georgiev]

yes I just found out about it as well. Will refactor.

I can leave as is, just thought that this way will reduce the manual work a bit. Can revert it if you prefer to keep these manual entries. Let me know

I am also interesting to run Traccar in docker on RPi 4 8GB.
Any estimate on when this PR can be done and merged?

[krasi-georgiev]

This needs to be updated with the official multiarch docker build docker/build-push-action , but haven't had the time to refactor it. @tedenda feel free to take over this PR to refactor.

[tedenda]

I don't have the skills to do that I'm afraid. I'm a docker user that still only use prebuilt containers. Would like to learn to build custom made containers some day.

Hopefully someone else can help this PR over the finish line. Thanks for your efforts with this PR!

As I said, this is not in my skillset, but maybe it is something like this?
