Why is the latest official GitLab CE docker image 7 months old[1]? Is that no longer a recommended install method?
[1] https://hub.docker.com/r/gitlab/gitlab-ce/builds/ https://hub.docker.com/r/gitlab/gitlab-ce/builds/
EDIT: Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place? The "latest builds" page shows activity from 7 months ago, but the "tags" page is showing "latest" updated 6 days ago. Does that just refer to the source repo tag, or a successful build that (for some reason) doesn't show in the builds page?
- jarfil 10y agoThe "latest builds" page shows automated builds created by docker hub, but repo owners can also manually push builds created by themselves, which seems to be the case.
- dperfect 10y agoAh, that makes sense - thanks. Looks like many (most?) of the most popular images on Docker Hub are as you say - manually-pushed builds. A part of me wishes that more of them were automated, just to have more visibility into what exactly goes into each image. I guess that's off-topic though.
- michaelmior 10y agoThe Dockerfile is displayed for the manual builds. What other visibility are you missing?
- dperfect 10y agoFrom what I understand, the source often contains other files/scripts that are invoked by the Dockerfile, so that would be one example of potentially missing visibility.
- michaelmior 10y agoTrue, but even if the build is automated, you won't necessarily have access to the full source.
- sytse 10y agoUnfortunately automated builds on Docker Hub don't yet support GitLab.com, that is why we use a manual build.
