Questions
- Do you need virtualization to run docker build for a windows docker image? If so can you please share the docs?
- Does the Github hosted windows runner support virtualization? Or does it just have docker installed?
Any references to documentation would be much appreciated :)
Context
- I would like use a github action to build a windows image and push it to ecr
- I have successfully been able to do this using the Github hosted windows runner
- I would like to create a self hosted Github Runner for this action
- I know hyper v or some sort of virtualization capability is required for running a windows docker container, but I cannot find information on whether or not that is required for building a windows container
- info: it seems that at one point the windows github runner did not support any container actions but the runner now has docker installed: https://github.com/actions/runner/issues/904
- I am trying to determine what I need to provision for my self hosted windows github runner to be able to build a windows docker image.
