source

The Git Tag "source" retrieves the latest git Tag matching a pattern.

condition

The Git Tag "condition" tests if git Tag matching a pattern exist.

target

The Git Tag "target" ensures a git Tag matching a pattern exist otherwise it creates it.

Parameter

The gittag resource is a resource designed to be used with the scmID

Name	Type	Description

password	string	“password” specifies the password when using the HTTP protocol `compatible: * source * condition * target`
path	string	Path contains the git repository path
sourcebranch	string	“sourcebranch” defines the branch name used as a source to create the new Git branch. compatible: target remark: sourcebranch is required when the scmid is not defined.
url	string	“url” specifies the git url to use for fetching Git Tags. `compatible: * source * condition * target example: * git@github.com:updatecli/updatecli.git * https://github.com/updatecli/updatecli.git remarks: when using the ssh protocol, the user must have the right to clone the repository based on its local ssh configuration`

kind	string	specifies the version kind such as semver, regex, or latest
pattern	string	specifies the version pattern according the version kind
strict	boolean	strict enforce strict versioning rule. Only used for semantic versioning at this time

scms:
  gitExample:
    kind: "git"

        branch: "main"

    kind: gittag
    scmid: githubExample
    spec:
      versionfilter:
        kind: regex
        pattern: "v0.*"

        pattern: "v0.1.2"
targets:
  github:
    sourceid: githubRegex
    name: Publish tag with -github
    scmid: githubExample
    kind: gittag
    transformers:
      - addsuffix: "-github"

VersionFilter

versionFilter allows to specify the kind of version retrieved from a resource and its version pattern. Default value is "latest" as we want to retrieve the newest version from a resource.

latest

If kind is set to latest then no need to specify the patter as we gonna retrieve the newest version from the resource.

Example

sources:
  kubectl:
    kind: githubRelease
    spec:
      owner: "kubernetes"
      repository: "kubectl"
      token: "{{ requiredEnv .github.token }}"
      username: "john"
      versionFilter:
        kind: latest
    transformers:
      - trimPrefix: "kubernetes-"

Return the latest Github release and remove "kubernetes-" from it.

regex

If versionFilter.kind is set to regex then we can use versionFilter.pattern to specify a regular expression to return the newest version returned from a resource matching the regex If no versionFilter.pattern is provided then it uses '.*' which return the newest version

sources:
  kubectl:
    kind: githubRelease
    spec:
      owner: "kubernetes"
      repository: "kubectl"
      token: "{{ requiredEnv .github.token }}"
      username: "john"
      versionFilter:
        kind: regex
        pattern: "kubernetes-1.(\\d*).(\\d*)$"
    transformers:
      - trimPrefix: "kubernetes-"

⇒ Return the newest kubectl version matching pattern "kubernetes-1.(\\d*).(\\d*)$" and remove "kubernetes-" from it

semver

If versionFilter.kind is set to semver then we can use versionFilter.pattern to specify version pattern as explained here. In the process we also sort. If no versionFilter.pattern is provided then it fallback to '*' which return the newest version. If a version doesn’t respect semantic versioning, then it’s not the value is just ignored.

Remark

In the process we drop any characters not respecting semantic version like in this version "v1.0.0", we drop the "v" but we can added it back using transformers.

example

  jenkins-wiki-exporter:
    kind: githubRelease
    spec:
      owner: "jenkins-infra"
      repository: "jenkins-wiki-exporter"
      token: "{{ requiredEnv .github.token }}"
      username: "john"
      versionFilter:
        kind: semver
        pattern: "~1.10"

⇒ Return the version "v1.10.3"
