Core-Geth / Docker Build Tag Formatting: Pattern Change and Deprecation Notice

January 31, 2023

🛈 This is a deprecation notice about tag formatting for Docker builds in the Docker Hub registry.

TL;DR: For Docker builds, use etclabscore/core-geth:v1.12.9 instead of etclabscore/core-geth:version-1.12.9.


Core-Geth has automated builds in the Docker Hub registry at hub.docker.com/r/etclabscore/core-geth.

Currently, the builds for tagged releases are labeled as version-1.12.9.\ Onward, these tagged builds will be labeled instead as v1.12.9.

Similarly, builds for the alltools images will move to alltools-v1.12.9, rather than alltools.version-1.12.9.

Rationale

  1. The label formatting before was kind of weird.
  2. This change moves the label formatting

Schedule

From v1.12.9..v1.12.11, builds for both patterns will exist.\ From v1.12.12 and beyond, only builds labeled vX.Y.Z will exist.
