Updating and publishing Docker images

Docker images are updated by changing the appropriate Dockerfiles in each subdirectory. For Miniconda (miniconda3) and Anaconda Distribution (anaconda3) this is automatically done by renovate.

To publish a Docker image, a release has to be created. The scheme for the release tag name is specified in each workflow file, for example:

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
    tags:
      - 'anaconda3-*'

If an image with the same version needs to be republished, the version number should be amended with .postN where N is an integer.

Automatic updates using renovate

Docker images using the Miniconda or Anaconda Distribution installers can be updated using renovate.

Updates with sha256 checks

To update Dockerfiles that contain sha256 checks, the full URL and sha256 sums need to be provided for each installer:

# renovate datasource=custom.miniconda
ARG INSTALLER_URL="<URL to installer file>"
ARG SHA256SUM="<installer checksum>"

The sha variable must be in the line beneath the installer URL. For Anaconda Distribution, the datasource must be changed to custom.anaconda.

The variable names can have suffixes if there are multiple installers in one file, for example:

# renovate datasource=custom.miniconda
ARG INSTALLER_URL_LINUX64="<URL to linux-64 installer file>"
ARG SHA256SUM_LINUX64="<linux-64 installer checksum>"
# renovate datasource=custom.miniconda
ARG INSTALLER_URL_AARCH64="<URL to linux-aarch64 installer file>"
ARG SHA256SUM_AARCH64="<linux-aarch64 installer checksum>"

Simple version number updates

If not checksums are needed, the Dockerfile can be simplified:

# renovate: datasource=custom.miniconda depName=Linux-x86_64.sh
ARG INSTALLER_VERSION=<installer version>

Linux-x86_64.sh can be replaced by any installer suffix supported in the latest release.
