Possibility to tag image without building it

[thomsa]

Hi!

Is there a possibility to tag the latest image with a given tag without actually executing anything?

The scenario:

• We have main branch that is always built after every push and it ends up being a docker image: my-image:main
• Relases are just tags on main, the way we can upload them is to specify --input-str vx.x.x. and have the same vx.x.x. as an env variable so that baur can tag the new image with my-image:vx.x.x.

The problem with this approach is that the images are constantly rebuilt, while the latest tagged version from main is exactly the same as the newest release.

Is there a possibility to have the upload part executed without actually having to run the task in the task definition?

Hello @thomsa,

Is there a possibility to have the upload part executed without actually having to run the task in the task definition?

No that is currently not possible.

Does it maybe work to create a baur task that runs a custom bash script and the bash script does only the tagging/uploading?
