# Creating GitHub Super-Linter Release
|
|
|
|
The Process to create a `Release` of the **GitHub/Super-Linter** is as follows:
|
|
|
|
- Every push to `master/main` triggers a build and deploy of the **GitHub/Super-linter**
|
|
- This creates the following images:
|
|
- `github/super-linter:latest`
|
|
- `github/super-linter:slim-latest`
|
|
- This also causes the `Release drafter` action to update a new draft Release
|
|
|
|
When an *Admin* wants to create a Release, the process is as follows:
|
|
- The *Admin* pushes an update to `master/main` and updates the `action.yml` to point to the next **Release** version
|
|
- Example: `image: 'docker://ghcr.io/github/super-linter:v4.6.2'` becomes: `image: 'docker://ghcr.io/github/super-linter:v4.6.3'`
|
|
- Then the *admin* can go to the Release page and update the current `draft Release`
|
|
- The *Admin* will set the correct version strings, and update any additional information in the current `draft Release`
|
|
- Once the *Admin* is ready, they will select **Publish Release**
|
|
- This triggers the **GitHub Actions** to take the current codebase, and build the containers, and deploy to their locations
|
|
- This creates the following images:
|
|
- `github/super-linter:latest`
|
|
- `github/super-linter:v4`
|
|
- `github/super-linter:v4.6.3`
|
|
- `github/super-linter:slim-latest`
|
|
- `github/super-linter:slim-v4`
|
|
- `github/super-linter:slim-v4.6.3`
|
|
- At this point, the Release is complete and images are available for general consumption
|
|
|
|
## Pitfalls and Issues
|
|
|
|
If the *Admin* Does not update the `action.yml` to the new version before the Release is published, then the Release will point back to the old version, and any Images will also be sent back to the previous version.
|
|
This is very much a chicken and the egg issue, but seems to be easily resolved by following the correct path.
