Releasing loki-build-image
The loki-build-image
is the Docker image used to run tests and build Grafana Loki binaries in CI.
The build and publish process of the image is triggered upon a merge to main
if there were made any changes in the folder ./loki-build-image/
.
Building and using the loki-build-image
is a two-step process.
As a first step to build the new image, you need to create a pull
request with the desired changes to the Dockerfile. To increase the version of
the image, you also need to update the version tag of the loki-build-image
pipeline defined in .drone/drone.jsonnet
(search for
pipeline('loki-build-image')
) and run BUILD_IN_CONTAINER=false make drone
and commit the changes to the same pull request.
Once approved and merged to main
, the image with the new version is built.
The new image can only be used after updating the BUILD_IMAGE_VERSION
in the
Makefile
a second step. After changing the version in the Makefile and
updating it in all other places where the image is used:
- Dockerfiles in
cmd
directory .circleci/config.yml
run BUILD_IN_CONTAINER=false make drone
again and submit a PR with the
generated changes.
