ImageStreamTag [image.openshift.io/v1]

Description
ImageStreamTag represents an Image that is retrieved by tag name from an ImageStream. Use this resource to interact with the tags and images in an image stream by tag, or to see the image details for a particular tag. The image associated with this resource is the most recently successfully tagged, imported, or pushed image (as described in the image stream status.tags.items list for this tag). If an import is in progress or has failed the previous image will be shown. Deleting an image stream tag clears both the status and spec fields of an image stream. If no image can be retrieved for a given tag, a not found error will be returned. Compatibility level 1: Stable within a major release for a minimum of 12 months or 3 minor releases (whichever is longer).

Specification​

PropertyTypeDescription
apiVersionstringAPIVersion defines the versioned schema of this representation of an object. Servers should convert recognized schemas to the latest internal value, and may reject unrecognized values. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#resources
conditionsarrayconditions is an array of conditions that apply to the image stream tag.
conditions[]objectTagEventCondition contains condition information for a tag event.
generationintegergeneration is the current generation of the tagged image - if tag is provided and this value is not equal to the tag generation, a user has requested an import that has not completed, or conditions will be filled out indicating any error.
imageobjectImage is an immutable representation of a container image and its metadata at a point in time. Images are named by taking a hash of their contents (metadata and content) and any change in format, content, or metadata results in a new name. The images resource is primarily for use by cluster administrators and integrations like the cluster image registry - end users, instead, access images via the imagestreamtags or imagestreamimages resources. While image metadata is stored in the API, any integration that implements the container image registry API must provide its own storage for the raw manifest data, image config, and layer contents.
Compatibility level 1: Stable within a major release for a minimum of 12 months or 3 minor releases (whichever is longer).
kindstringKind is a string value representing the REST resource this object represents. Servers may infer this from the endpoint the client submits requests to. Cannot be updated. In CamelCase. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#types-kinds
lookupPolicyobjectImageLookupPolicy describes how an image stream can be used to override the image references used by pods, builds, and other resources in a namespace.
metadataObjectMetametadata is the standard object’s metadata. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#metadata
tagobjectTagReference specifies optional annotations for images using this tag and an optional reference to an ImageStreamTag, ImageStreamImage, or DockerImage this tag should track.

Type
`object`
Required
  • local
PropertyTypeDescription
localbooleanlocal will change the docker short image references (like "mysql" or "php:latest") on objects in this namespace to the image ID whenever they match this image stream, instead of reaching out to a remote registry. The name will be fully qualified to an image ID if found. The tag’s referencePolicy is taken into account on the replaced value. Only works within the current namespace.

.tag​

Description
TagReference specifies optional annotations for images using this tag and an optional reference to an ImageStreamTag, ImageStreamImage, or DockerImage this tag should track.
Type
`object`
Required
  • name
PropertyTypeDescription
annotationsobject (string)Optional; if specified, annotations that are applied to images retrieved via ImageStreamTags.
fromObjectReferenceOptional; if specified, a reference to another image that this tag should point to. Valid values are ImageStreamTag, ImageStreamImage, and DockerImage. ImageStreamTag references can only reference a tag within this same ImageStream.
generationintegergeneration is a counter that tracks mutations to the spec tag (user intent). When a tag reference is changed the generation is set to match the current stream generation (which is incremented every time spec is changed). Other processes in the system like the image importer observe that the generation of spec tag is newer than the generation recorded in the status and use that as a trigger to import the newest remote tag. To trigger a new import, clients may set this value to zero which will reset the generation to the latest stream generation. Legacy clients will send this value as nil which will be merged with the current tag generation.
importPolicyobjectTagImportPolicy controls how images related to this tag will be imported.
namestringname of the tag
referencebooleanreference states if the tag will be imported. Default value is false, which means the tag will be imported.
referencePolicyobjectTagReferencePolicy describes how pull-specs for images in this image stream tag are generated when image change triggers in deployment configs or builds are resolved. This allows the image stream author to control how images are accessed.

Type
`object`
PropertyTypeDescription

.tag.referencePolicy​

Description
TagReferencePolicy describes how pull-specs for images in this image stream tag are generated when image change triggers in deployment configs or builds are resolved. This allows the image stream author to control how images are accessed.
Type
`object`
Required
  • type
PropertyTypeDescription
typestringtype determines how the image pull spec should be transformed when the image stream tag is used in deployment config triggers or new builds. The default value is Source, indicating the original location of the image should be used (if imported). The user may also specify Local, indicating that the pull spec should point to the integrated container image registry and leverage the registry’s ability to proxy the pull to an upstream registry. Local allows the credentials used to pull this image to be managed from the image stream’s namespace, so others on the platform can access a remote image but have no access to the remote secret. It also allows the image layers to be mirrored into the local registry which the images can still be pulled even if the upstream registry is unavailable.

Valid values are: - Ignore: This will ignore any unknown fields that are silently dropped from the object, and will ignore all but the last duplicate field that the decoder encounters. This is the default behavior prior to v1.23. - Warn: This will send a warning via the standard warning response header for each unknown field that is dropped from the object, and for each duplicate field that is encountered. The request will still succeed if there are no other errors, and will only persist the last of any duplicate fields.
