pass Github secrets to a docker github action - docker

Question

Hi my devoted and beloved developers!
Today I face trouble trying to transmit GitHub secrets to a docker GitHub action in order to use this variable in the container. I already have defined for the project the secret what_a_secret for the key CHUT.
Here is what I currently have:
name: Continious Delivery
on: [push]
jobs:
myjob:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout#v2
with:
fetch-depth: 0
- name: Docker Run Action
uses: addnab/docker-run-action#v3
env:
CHUT: ${{ secrets.CHUT }}
with:
image: amazon/aws-glue-libs:glue_libs_1.0.0_image_01
options:
--env CHUT=$CHUT
-v ${{ github.workspace }}:/workspace
run:
echo CHUT=$CHUT
This just print CHUT=$CHUT instead of CHUT=what_a_secret.
I also tried to do something like this:
--env CHUT=${{ secrets.CHUT }}
And this:
run:
echo CHUT=${{ secrets.CHUT }}
But the lasts solution returns nothing at all.
Your help would be warmly welcomed
EDIT: the documentation "Configure GitHub Actions" do not work to pass environment variables to a container.

The final anwswer is: I made my code cleaner and did this :
name: Continious Delivery
on: [push]
jobs:
myjob:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout#v2
with:
fetch-depth: 0
- name: Docker Run Action
uses: addnab/docker-run-action#v3
with:
image: amazon/aws-glue-libs:glue_libs_1.0.0_image_01
options:
--e CHUT=${{ secrets.CHUT }}
-v ${{ github.workspace }}:/workspace
run:
echo "CHUT=$CHUT"
output is CHUT=*** because Github is smart enough to not print a secret in the terminal. But the docker read the secret correctly.
