【原创】运维基础之Docker(7)关于docker latest tag

时间:2022-07-21 07:29:54

Docker images have a tag named latest which doesn’t work as you expect.
Latest is just a tag with a special name.
“Latest” simply means “the last build/tag that ran without a specific tag/version specified”.
Just version your tags. Every time.

docker image有一个tag叫做latest,latest通过最近一次没有指定版本的build或tag来生成

下面实验来看:

$ docker tag imagename localhost:5000/imagename
$ docker push localhost:5000/imagename

这样可以在repository上创建一个版本为latest的imagename,下一次更新操作如下:

1)先停止使用旧的image的container并删除,然后删除旧的image

$ docker stop $container_id
$ docker rm $container_id
$ docker rmi localhost:5000/imagename

2)同上

$ docker tag imagename localhost:5000/imagename
$ docker push localhost:5000/imagename

这种方式不会保留历史版本;

更好的做法是:

1)版本1

$ docker tag imagename localhost:5000/imagename:1
$ docker push localhost:5000/imagename:1
$ docker tag imagename localhost:5000/imagename
$ docker push localhost:5000/imagename

这时latest=1

2)版本2

$ docker tag imagename localhost:5000/imagename:2
$ docker push localhost:5000/imagename:2

$ docker stop $container_id
$ docker rm $container_id
$ docker rmi localhost:5000/imagename
$ docker tag imagename localhost:5000/imagename
$ docker push localhost:5000/imagename

这时latest=2
