# Setup DB Action
A reusable Gitea Action that sets up the Trivy vulnerability database, restoring from cache if available.
The action runs Trivy inside **Docker** with a restricted container configuration so the Trivy runtime is isolated from the host while the database is downloaded into your cache directory.
**Docker-in-Docker:** If the job runs **in a container** and talks to a **DinD sidecar**, bind-mount sources must live on the volume **both** the job and the Docker daemon see. On GitHub-hosted-style setups that is typically under **`RUNNER_TEMP`** (e.g. `/home/runner/_work/_temp`). The default **`cache-dir`** is **`${{ runner.temp }}/trivy`** for that reason—see [this overview of DinD bind mounts](https://dev.to/devactivity/navigating-github-actions-dind-bind-mounts-insights-from-recent-github-reports-for-cicd-1c8). Configure your Gitea runner the same way, or set **`cache-dir`** to a path your platform documents as shared with DinD.
**Note:** This action only prepares the vulnerability database. If you run Trivy on the runner host for scans (for example `trivy fs .`), install Trivy separately (e.g. with a `setup-trivy` action or your own step).
## Usage
### Basic Usage
```yaml
- name: Setup DB
uses: https://gitea.t000-n.de/t.behrendt/trivy-actions/setup-db@0.0.1
```
### Complete Example
```yaml
name: Security Scan
on: [push, pull_request]
jobs:
security:
runs-on:
- ubuntu-latest
- linux_amd64
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
- name: Setup Trivy
uses: https://gitea.t000-n.de/t.behrendt/trivy-actions/setup-trivy@0.0.1
- name: Setup DB
uses: https://gitea.t000-n.de/t.behrendt/trivy-actions/setup-db@0.0.1
- name: Scan for vulnerabilities
run: trivy fs .
```
## Inputs
| Input | Description | Required | Default |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------- | ------- |
| `cache-dir` | Trivy cache directory (created if missing; bind-mounted for DB download) | No | `${{ runner.temp }}/trivy` |
| `trivy-version` | Docker image reference for Trivy (digest pin recommended) | No | Pinned `ghcr.io/aquasecurity/trivy` image in `action.yaml` |
**`trivy-version` is optional.** If you omit it, the action uses the default image (version and digest) from `action.yaml`. Set it only when you need a different Trivy image or your own digest pin.
