# Docker Images `master-omnibus` vs `latest`
|
|
|
|
> TL;DR; The `master-omnibus` and `latest` tags are almost semantically identical, as I follow a `golden master`
|
|
development process. However if you want to ensure you're only using the latest release, you can change to `latest`
|
|
|
|
The CI script used to orchestrate the docker image builds can be found here: https://github.com/AnalogJ/scrutiny/blob/master/.github/workflows/docker-build.yaml#L166-L184
|
|
|
|
In general Scrutiny follows a `golden master` development process, which means that the `master` branch is not directly updated (unless its for documentation changes),
|
|
instead development is done in a feature branch, or committed to the `beta` branch.
|
|
|
|
As development progresses, and we're satisfied that a feature is complete, and the quality is acceptable,
|
|
I merge the changes to `master` and trigger the creation of a new release -- ie, when master is updated, a new release
|
|
is almost immediately created (and tagged with `latest`)
|
|
|
|
So changing from `master-omnibus -> latest` will be the same thing for all intents and purposes.
|
|
|
|
Having said that -- the one key difference is the `automated cron builds` that run on the `master` and `beta` branches.
|
|
They trigger a `nightly` build, even if nothing has changed on the branch. This has a couple of benefits, but one is to
|
|
ensure that there's no broken external dependencies in our (unchanged) code.
|
|
|
|
However, as everyone unfortunately found out recently, I had an error in my CI script, which caused failures to be
|
|
ignored -- https://github.com/AnalogJ/scrutiny/issues/287. That has since been fixed.
|
|
|
|
Hope that gives you an understanding for how everything is wired up.
