enricobuehler 6c46ca98a7 ci: switch buildx cache-to to mode=min
mode=max was re-uploading the bun install cache mount (~40–60s per
build, ~90s combined for api-core + web) to the Gitea OCI registry
on every push, even when source hadn't changed. That single export
accounts for most of the delta between 1-minute and 3-minute deploys.

mode=min only exports the final stage's layers. The trade-off is a
few-second tax on cold buildkitd starts (the installer stage no
longer warms from registry cache), but the per-push savings dwarf it.

played/workflows

Reusable Gitea Actions workflows for the played ecosystem.

build-deploy-game.yml

Drives the standard four-stage build-api-core → deploy-api-core → build-web → deploy-web pipeline for a played game.

Usage

Each game's .gitea/workflows/deploy.yml:

name: Build & Deploy <Game>
run-name: ${{ gitea.actor }} is deploying <game-id>

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
  workflow_dispatch:

jobs:
  build-deploy:
    uses: played/workflows/.gitea/workflows/build-deploy-game.yml@main
    with:
      game-id: <game-id>
    secrets: inherit

Required caller secrets

secrets: inherit makes all the calling repo's secrets available. The workflow reads:

Secret Purpose
BUILD_ENV Full prod .env contents. Used as a Docker build secret (secret-files: env=...) AND written to ~/<game-id>-secrets/.env on the deploy VM.
NPMRC ~/.npmrc content with @played:registry=... + auth tokens.
REGISTRY_USER / REGISTRY_TOKEN Gitea container registry creds.
PLAYED_HOST / PLAYED_USER / PLAYED_PORT / PLAYED_SSH_KEY Deploy target SSH.
STEP_CA_PROVISIONER_PASSWORD For the cert-init container in compose.production.yml.

Assumptions

  • The repo lives at git.unom.io/played/<game-id> (matches ${{ gitea.repository }}).
  • The VM working dir is ~/<game-id> (the deploy step cds there).
  • Secrets dir is ~/<game-id>-secrets/.
  • compose.production.yml defines api-core and web services, both with --env-file ~/<game-id>-secrets/.env.
