Support for "--platform" tag to prevent multi-arch FROM image architecture mismatch about builder

[frenck]

Actually it seems to work great for local builds (I've tested on armv7, aarch64 & amd64), but the github action workflow script fails to provide the right arch.

But will go south on armhf/armv6 for example.

I take this opportunity of having your ear to say that I am a big fan of your work. Thanks so much for everything you've developed and your continued support.

how can we upgrade from locally build addons to image based addons?

When the image tag is present in the add-on configuration, it is picked up.

the supervisor seems to still try to build locally according to its log.

I'm not aware of such an issue, maybe file a report @ Supervisor instead?

addons builds succeed when building from multi-arch base images

We don't publish multi-arch base images?

The problem with using multi-arch images, is that is will still go south in a bunch of cases. I would recommend not using a single image that contains multi-arch for that reason. I will lead to troubles (I've painfully learned that as well).

Thanks very much for your quick answer. To facilitate my addons updates, I usually base myself on pre-existing images from Dockerhub, then add through my Dockerfile the Bashio & Tempio scripts to allow more relevant HA scripts. This means the majority are not based on your excellent single-arch base images, but either on single-arch images from Linuxserver, or on multi-arch images from other providers...

I understand though that it is not an optimal way of working... Just the only one at my disposal as I've got a full time job and am maintaining my addons + supporting their on the side so I was trying to base my work on preexisting images as much as possible...

Indeed, I've removed armhf from my builds... Well then thanks I'll close the issue then and keep as is :)

BTW I know it's not good manners to ask another question in a same thread but as it will be closed soon :) how can we upgrade from locally build addons to image based addons? Even for my addons based on HA bas arch images, if I try to update in HA os a locally built addon (for example, a v 1.0 which has no image tag I pn it's config.json) with a new imaged-based version (for example if v2.0 that has the image tag in its config.json), the supervisor seems to still try to build locally according to its log. When the local build is completed, the addon however doesn't start and fails with an "image not found" with the name of the image in the config.json. My understanding is that the addon doesn't see at update that the new version is based on an image so it doesn't download it. When I uninstall completely the addon and reinstall It completely, it installs and runs fine showing that the issue with not with the image itself. Or am I missing something? Thanks again very much :)

Thanks! I'll double check then file on supervisor with logs. Have a great day
