Configuring Containers

A container blueprint is available to create new projects that are used for container builds. It is highly recommended you use the container blueprint. For more information on blueprints check out the blueprints page.

See the migration guide for steps on migrating.

Image Settings/Build

Image name (including repository) and image tag are now configurable as project properties. Several new variables have also become available with project properties, including the stream name, stream attributes, and project version. Most of the functionality previously available should be achievable with these additions. See the Docker plugin guide for details.

Container Settings/Deploy

After building the image there are 3 options to consider for deployment. Deploying via kubectl or Helm to a Kubernetes node. Or running the docker container directly. Check out the plugin guides for more info on how to use these:

Image Scanning

FlexDeploy supports local image scanning out of the box with the Anchore plugin. See the Anchore plugin guide for configuration details.

Scans can also be executed as a Pre-deploy Workflow. This has the added benefit of creating approval tasks from the scan results.
