Docker build failures
COPY failed: file not found in build context
This usually happens when trying to build the binary again from source code in the Docker image build process.
The way GoReleaser works, the correct binary for the platform you're building
should be already available, so you don't need to build it again and can still
reuse the Dockefile.
Another common misconception is trying to copy the binary as if the context is
the repository root.
It's not.
It's always a new temporary build context with the artifacts you can use in
its root, so you can just COPY binaryname /bin/binaryname and etc.
Below you can find some don'ts as well as what you should do.
expected to find X artifacts for ids [id1 id2], found Y
The ids property in the Dockers configuration tells GoReleaser which build IDs
to include.
You need to remove IDs that don't exist and/or don't build for the architecture
of the image being built.
Leaving it empty is also fine if you don't need any binaries.
use docker --context=default buildx to switch to context "default"
The "default" context is a built-in context in "docker buildx", and it is automatically created. This context typically points to the local Docker environment and is used by default for building images. It has to be active for goreleaser to build images with "buildx".
You can switch to the default context using docker context use default.
This change should be persistent.
Don't
Build the binary again.

Don't
Copy from the dist directory.

Do
Copy the clean file names from the root.

!!! tip
If you still want your users to be able to `docker build` without an extra
step, you can have a `Dockerfile` just for GoReleaser, for example, a
`goreleaser.dockerfile`.
