Publishing

Actions are released as tags:

• one tag that reflects the exact version
• a major version tag that points to the last tag of that version

For example, when releasing the version v1.2.3, ensure the tag v1 points to that version as well. Check the code example bellow:

git fetch
git checkout main
git pull
git tag -d v1
git tag v1
git push origin :v1
git push origin v1

Releasing tao-release Docker image

1. Login as a user that has access and execute:

cd docker
docker build -f Dockerfile-tao-release . -t taotesting/tao-release:1.0

docker tag taotesting/tao-release:1.0 taotesting/tao-release:1.0
docker push taotesting/tao-release:1.0

docker tag taotesting/tao-release:1.0 taotesting/tao-release:latest
docker push taotesting/tao-release:latest

2. Check if the image is there

Access docker hub.

Creating and publishing a multi arch image

For Apple Silicon owners, and other ARM powered machine, here is how to build an publish the images.

Note: the image build will come together with the publication. This is needed to push directly to a repository if you want Docker Desktop to automatically manage the manifest list for you.

First you need to prepare the engine:

• enable the Experimental Features in Docker (from the config options in the desktop application)
• start the engine: docker buildx create --use

Build and publish a multi arch image:

docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64,linux/arm64 --push -t taotesting/tao-release:1.1 -f Dockerfile-tao-release .

Note: you will need to use the proper tag as it would be better to use a different version, like 1.2, 1.3, etc.

Tag the new image as the latest:

docker buildx imagetools create -t taotesting/tao-release:latest taotesting/tao-release:1.1
