---------------------- In your Garden configuration, you can target a specific image from a multi-stage Dockerfile using the

spec.targetStage

field. This field allows you to specify which image/stage to build. For example, if you want to target the

test-stage

in your Dockerfile, you can do so as follows:

yaml
spec:
  targetStage: "test-stage"

Similarly, for the

release-stage

, you can do:

yaml
spec:
  targetStage: "release-stage"

Please note that the

spec.targetStage

field is not required and its type is

string

. For more details, you can refer to the Garden's documentation on

spec.targetStage

() field. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

---------------------- I'm sorry for the confusion. The

targetStage

key is not recognized because it's not a valid key for the

spec

field in the Garden configuration. The

spec

field in the Garden configuration is an object and it's not required. However, the specific keys that can be used within the

spec

object depend on the action type. For example, in the case of the

build

action type, the

spec

field does not recognize the

targetStage

key. You can refer to the Garden's documentation on the

spec

field for the

build

action type () and the

spec

field for the

deploy

action type () for more details. If you're trying to specify a target stage for a multi-stage Dockerfile, you might be misunderstanding the usage of the

targetStage

key. This key is used to specify which image/stage to build in a multi-stage Dockerfile, but it's not a valid key for the

spec

field in the Garden configuration. If you're still having trouble, I recommend checking the Garden's documentation or reaching out to the Garden community for further assistance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

---------------------- I apologize for the confusion earlier. To use a specific stage from a multi-stage Dockerfile in Garden, you would typically create separate actions for each stage. However, Garden's current documentation does not provide a direct method to target a specific stage in a multi-stage Dockerfile. For testing, Garden treats tests as a first-class citizen and has a dedicated

Test

action kind. Here's an example of how you can define a test action:

yaml
kind: Test
name: integ
type: container
dependencies: [deploy.web]
spec:
  image: ${actions.build.web.outputs.deploymentImageId}
  command: [npm, run, test:integ]

This action depends on the web service being deployed and will basically sit at the edge of the graph. You can run the test from the dashboard, and Garden's caching mechanism ensures that only the tests for the parts of the system that actually changed need to be re-run. However, this does not directly address your question about targeting a specific stage in a multi-stage Dockerfile. I recommend reaching out to the Garden community or their support for more specific guidance on this topic. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
