@rcdailey, I think I've found a pretty reliable and cheap way of fetching digests. Just wanted to check with you whether this output looks informative enough for your use-case?

Debug logs show which tags have 0 associated digests, and which SHAs are kept because of found associations, while we use info logs to show the aggregate counts for the tags with associated digests. I feel like this should give a good macro view of what's going on for info-logging, while debug offers enough details to understand the rest.
Any suggestions for improvements?
Thank you for getting back with me so quickly. I have a couple of follow up notes/questions, just to make sure I understand the logs correctly.
Regarding the log Found 0 associated digests
: Does this mean that the specified docker tag does not identify a multi-platform image? Maybe my understanding of how manifests work is wrong, but isn't there some image present (with some digest)? The fact that there are 0 digests is what confuses me I guess.
The Skipping deletion of
output I find especially interesting for my case, because it addresses one of the main concerns: Will this action delete multi-platform images associated with tags matching a specific pattern? I'm not sure if you've added the ability to specify a tag pattern to assist in excluding deletion of images that are associated with those tags, but the log message at least seems helpful.
I still see this: dry-run: Would have deleted container-retention-policy:<untagged>
which again leaves me wondering what image it is talking about. And the fact that "untagged" just doesn't help me at all. As I pointed out earlier, all multi-platform images are untagged technically, so the bigger question is, is this image mentioned in any manifest? And if so, what tag does that manifest belong? I think the new log messages I'm seeing are doing a better job of identifying that, so I'm not sure why these "untagged" log messages are still there.
I hope that helps.

Multi-platform images seem to be of the media type application/vnd.oci.image.manifest.v1+json
which have their associated manifests declared under the manifests
key, while a "regular" application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2+json
image does not. Maybe we could reword the logger to make this clearer?

I'm not sure if you've added the ability to specify a tag pattern to assist in excluding deletion of images that are associated with those tags, but the log message at least seems helpful.
Since we do fetch every single package version available for selected packages, we could exhaustively fetch the manifest for every single package version with a tag, and then use the information there to filter out other package versions that are found to be associated with those manifests.
Then I guess it's important that we:
filter-tags
inputfilter-tags
input, when selectedDoes that seem right to you? I think we could then get away with just using filter-tags
for the filtering logic.

If we do the cataloguing of all tags and associated images, then I think it would be possible to add more information about which image belongs to which multi-platform image to this output 👍
Maybe we could do something like this?

Your explanation helps a lot; thank you. This confirms that I had the right understanding. I've sadly been unware of how multi-platform images (and even "regular" images) are represented internally; so these conversations have helped a lot!
Then I guess it's important that we:
- Don't delete any image that belongs to a multi-platform image for a tag that isn't selected in the
filter-tags
input- Only delete entire multi-platform image collections for tags that are selected from the
filter-tags
input, when selectedDoes that seem right to you? I think we could then get away with just using
filter-tags
for the filtering logic.
I think this 100% represents what I am expecting. I think this also 100% addresses my concerns with unwanted behavior by using the retention action.

I think this looks much much better. I think even in the distribution-mamnifest
case, we could have associated_tag=foo
-- Because that image is part of a manifest associated with a tag. Assuming I am correctly understanding each of the media_type
:
oci-image-index
: A "normal" docker image; not multi-platformdistribution-manifest
: A multi-platform docker image, which is really just a JSON file pointing to 1 or more other images that by themselves are untagged.I think all roads should lead to a tag, except if that image is truly orphaned (not mentioned by any manifest you're able to obtain for any known tag). I think we probably need a media_type
scenario for that; maybe media_type=orphaned
? Because it technically wouldn't even have a media type if it doesn't get mentioned in any manifest JSON, right?
