Documentation regarding warning on unused build args is no longer accurate with BuildKit
Is this a docs issue?
- [X] My issue is about the documentation content or website
Type of issue
Information is incorrect
Description
The documentation for Dockerfiles and ARGs state:
If you specify a build argument that wasn't defined in the Dockerfile, the build outputs a warning.
"[Warning] One or more build-args [foo] were not consumed."
This didn't work for me and I was pulling my hair until I found this: https://github.com/moby/buildkit/issues/2128
It does however work if I disable BuildKit using: DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0
Location
https://docs.docker.com/reference/dockerfile/
Suggestion
While the simple solution would be to remove the information all together I would like it to temporarily note that it works for the old builder. The error was useful and if it is removed now I fear that it will not be added again if fixed in BuildKit.
