Was I supposed to clone the GitHub repository before trying to build the image?

I ask because I’ve just seen these errors

 => ERROR [2/4] COPY patches/ /tmp/patches/                                0.0s

And being as n00b as I am, I’m instantly trying to attribute the blame to me not doing something.

    Did you just download a Dockerfile? Link to the repo, but I suspect you are correct and you need to clone and build from the clone.

      I took the dockerfile from https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-headphones/blob/master/Dockerfile

      Updated it to look like

      # syntax=docker/dockerfile:1
      
      FROM ghcr.io/linuxserver/baseimage-alpine:3.20
      
      # set version label
      ARG BUILD_DATE
      ARG VERSION
      ARG HEADPHONES_COMMIT
      LABEL build_version="Linuxserver.io version:- ${VERSION} Build-date:- ${BUILD_DATE}"
      LABEL maintainer="aptalca"
      # hard set UTC in case the user does not define it
      ENV TZ="Etc/UTC"
      
      # copy patches folder
      COPY patches/ /tmp/patches/
      
      RUN \
        echo "**** install build packages ****" && \
        apk add --no-cache --virtual=build-dependencies \
          build-base && \
        echo "**** install runtime packages ****" && \
        apk add --no-cache \
          ffmpeg \
          flac \
          mc \
          python3 && \
        echo "**** compile shntool *** *" && \
        mkdir -p \
          /tmp/shntool && \
        tar xf /tmp/patches/shntool-3.0.10.tar.gz -C \
          /tmp/shntool --strip-components=1 && \
        cp /tmp/patches/config.* /tmp/shntool && \
        cd /tmp/shntool && \
        ./configure \
          --infodir=/usr/share/info \
          --localstatedir=/var \
          --mandir=/usr/share/man \
          --prefix=/usr \
          --sysconfdir=/etc && \
        make && \
        make install && \
        echo "**** install headphones ****" && \
        mkdir -p /app/headphones && \
        if [ -z ${HEADPHONES_COMMIT+x} ] ; then \
          HEADPHONES_COMMIT=$(curl -sX GET "https://api.github.com/repos/rembo10/headphones/commits/master" \
          | jq -r .sha); \
        fi && \
        curl -o \
          /tmp/headphones.tar.gz -sL \
          "https://github.com/rembo10/headphones/archive/${HEADPHONES_COMMIT}.tar.gz" && \
        tar xf \
          /tmp/headphones.tar.gz -C \
          /app/headphones --strip-components=1 && \
        echo ${HEADPHONES_COMMIT} > /app/headphones/version.txt && \
        echo "**** cleanup ****" && \
        apk del --purge \
          build-dependencies && \
        rm -rf \
          /tmp/* \
          /usr/lib/*.la
      
      # add local files
      COPY root/ /
      
      # ports and volumes
      EXPOSE 8181
      VOLUME /config
      

      Saved it and ran docker build -t headphones /headphones/

      And expected it to work 🫣

        Yup, youll need the patches and root folders alongside the dockerfile at a minimum. Those COPY lines expect them. Clone is the way to go.
