Recently, pyaction passed 1 million pulls from the GitHub Container Registry. It is a Docker container with Python, git, and the GitHub CLI.
Several GitHub container actions use pyaction as the base image, and specifically pull it from the GitHub Container Registry. So this likely represents over 1 million runs of those dependent Actions. It is also available from Docker Hub.

Summary
This Docker image is designed to support implementing Github Actions with Python. As of version 4.0.0., it starts with the official python docker image as the base which is a Debian OS. It specifically uses python:3-slim to keep the image size down for faster loading of Github Actions that use pyaction. On top of the base, we've installed curl gpg, git, and the GitHub CLI. We added curl and gpg because they are needed to install the GitHub CLI, and they may come in handy anyway (especially curl) when implementing a GitHub Action.
