I hope you might solved this issue. ANyhow my reply is to help others for reference. I too faced the same problem and solved by the following changes made in workflow.yml. You need to mention the docker packages and docker file directory in workflow by cd
workflow at the time of error
run: docker build . --file Dockerfile --tag nodejs:$(date +%s)
Fix:
run: |
cd app
docker build . --file Dockerfile --tag nodejs:$(date +%s)
