Upgrade Notes:

All docker images have been re-located to a new Docker Hub organization created specifically for use with Warden. All built-in environment types having been updated to reference the images on docker.io/wardenenv rather than quay.io/warden. Images currently on Quay will remain available (for at least the next 90-days) in order to preserve functionality of Warden prior to the 0.5.1 release, but these will no longer be updated and are considered deprecated immediately. Where references to quay.io/warden exist in per-project configuration within the .warden directory, it is strongly recommended these references be updated to use images from docker.io/wardenenv. You can quickly check an environment's configuration for references to images on Quay via the following command:

warden env config | grep quay.io

The backstory, and reason for moving the images, is that in Warden 0.2.0 (circa January 2020) images were relocated from a single Docker Hub repository to individual repositories on Quay.io both as a means of breaking down a mon-repo and also to leverage images scanning of Quay.io. Since that time, Quay.io has had multiple outages, including a recent one which lasted for 19 hours with intermittent inability to pull images as even read-only operations were failing as the service failed to be scaled. This morning Quay.io is down yet again, prompting all-out inability to pull images. Given the saddening instability of Quay.io and the inability to setup a local mirror as you can with Docker Hub it has become painstakingly obvious that the images must be moved back to Docker Hub for a long-term and stable home, with the added benefit that you will now be able to use a local registry service as a pass-through mirror for reducing network bandwidth and/or ensuring you have a copy of all images local to your network should at any time Docker Hub encounter issues in the future.

The new long-term home for Warden docker images can be found here at https://hub.docker.com/u/wardenenv.

Change Summary:

  • Updated images to reside in the docker.io/wardenenv registry on Docker Hub
  • Removed usages of images previously on quay.io/warden
  • Deprecated images on quay.io/warden for planned removal at some point in the future (to be not less than 90-days from today)
