I have a step in my Jenkinsfile that runs using a Dockerfile
agent. When jenkins creates the docker image it gives it a random long tag and I'd like to replace that with my own tag. I tried passing the tag using additionalBuildArgs
but that gives the docker image an additional tag.
agent {
dockerfile {
additionalBuildArgs '-t my-image:latest'
}
}
Is there a way to stop Jenkins from passing a tag?
The plugin that controls this action is pipeline-model-definition-plugin.
you can see at the plugin's code that the image name is a hash of the project name and the dockerfile path:
def hash = Utils.stringToSHA1("${runWrapper.fullProjectName}\n${script.readFile("${dockerfilePath}")}")
def imgName = "${hash}"
then it takes the additional args and adds them to the image name:
def additionalBuildArgs = describable.getAdditionalBuildArgs() ? " ${describable.additionalBuildArgs}" : ""
script.sh "docker build -t ${imgName}${additionalBuildArgs} -f \"${dockerfilePath}\" \"${describable.getActualDir()}\""
so by using the dockerfile step, it seems that the name would always be a hash.
