GitHub Actions Pricing Whiplash: Self-Hosted Actions Billing Change Postponed
GitHub postponed a new billing model for self-hosted Actions after developer pushback, but moved forward with hosted runner price cuts on January 1.
@codefresh-io/docker-reference
Advanced tools
A small package to parse and work with docker images references.
To use docker-reference you should start with creating a Reference instance:
const { Reference } = require('@codefresh-io/docker-reference');
const imageReference = new Reference({
domain: 'r.cfcr.io',
repository: 'codefresh/demochat',
tag: 'master',
digest: 'sha256:58fe87ff24d5a3ac35c887dcef82eb619565987c1083282f876c7c2657a5f94e'
});
console.log(imageReference.repositoryUrl); // r.cfcr.io/codefresh/demochat
console.log(imageReference.toString()); // r.cfcr.io/codefresh/demochat:master@sha256:58fe87ff24d5a3ac35c887dcef82eb619565987c1083282f876c7c2657a5f94e
You can also use parser to create your Reference instance:
const { parseQualifiedName } = require('@codefresh-io/docker-reference');
const imageReference = parseQualifiedName('r.cfcr.io/codefresh/demochat:master@sha256:58fe87ff24d5a3ac35c887dcef82eb619565987c1083282f876c7c2657a5f94e');
console.log(imageReference.domain); // r.cfcr.io
console.log(imageReference.repository); // codefresh/demochat
console.log(imageReference.tag); // master
console.log(imageReference.digest); // sha256:58fe87ff24d5a3ac35c887dcef82eb619565987c1083282f876c7c2657a5f94e
There are 3 parsers in the package:
parseQualifiedName:
This should be use when parsing a string representing a qualified image reference, meaning the string should contain at least the domain and the repository of the image.
parseFamiliarName:
This should be use when parsing a string representing a familiar image
reference, meaning the string might not contains the domain part and this
case the domain part would become docker.io. Also when the domain is
missing and the repository contains only one part the repository would be
prefixed with library/.
This parser would parse all qualified image reference the same as
parseQualifiedName parser
parseAll:
This should be use when parsing a string representing a familiar image reference or identifier.
This parser would parse all qualified image reference the same as
parseQualifiedName parser and parse every familiar image reference the
same as parseFamiliarName
