Repository Secrets

To use this workflow you will need to add several repository secrets

env:
  EC2_IP_ADDRESS: ${{ secrets.EC2_IP_ADDRESS }}
  EC2_USERNAME: ${{ secrets.EC2_USERNAME }}
  EC2_PEM_KEY: ${{ secrets.EC2_PEM_KEY }}

  DOCKER_USERNAME: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_USERNAME }}
  DOCKER_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_PASSWORD }}
  DOCKER_COMPOSE: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_COMPOSE }}

Environment Variables in Docker

To keep your environment variables safe during the build step you will need to create a DOCKER_COMPOSE secret which should be formatted as below.
