The kraken-base-image provides a Docker image for AMD64 and ARM64 platforms that comes pre-bundled with
a lot of different common programming language runtimes and toolchains, intended to be used as a runtime
image for continuous integration pipelines. The image is currently base on ubuntu:20.04.
$ docker pull ghcr.io/kraken-build/kraken-base-image:develop
Aside from the develop tag, exact image versions can be pinned based on git tag --describe. The Kraken base image
is built from various Ubuntu starting images. We use semantic versioning in the form of x.y.z and x.y tags.
| Starting Image | Kraken base image tags | Notes |
|---|---|---|
ubuntu:20.04 |
develop-ubuntu_20.04, x.y.z-ubuntu_20.04, x.y-ubuntu_20.04 |
|
ubuntu:22.04 |
develop, x.y.z, x.y, develop-ubuntu_22.04, x.y.z-ubuntu_22.04, x.y-ubuntu_22.04 |
New versions of the base image must adhere to the Semantic Versioning scheme. Any upgraded software that is no longer backwards compatible must be released as a minor version upgrade (we use major version 0). This is to prevent (non backwards-compatible) software ugprades from blocking the release of backwards compatible upgrades or hotfixes.
Only when absolutely necessary, we introduce a branch for hot fixing older versions,. such as 0.17.x to release versions of
the base image in that minor version range besides a higher minor having already been released.
