cloning a git repository inside a Docker image failed

Question

I'm going to create a Docker image based on ubuntu:18.04 image.

There are some python packages listed in a requirements.txt file which should be installed in the image.

reportlab==2.7
newrelic==2.98.0.81
pympler==0.4.3
unidecode
python-dateutil
git+ssh://[email protected]/myproject/myprojects-tools.git@master

The command to install them is:

pip install -r requirements.txt

In the last line when it tries to fetch files from the defined repository, it failes, because the key is not installed in the image.

Is it good idea to put the key inside the image or there are better ideas?

You basically have two alternatives: ssh keys or deploy/access tokens.
