All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
- Added json output file for image metadata after a build is complete. Writes to
build/jib-image.json
by default, configurable withjib.outputPaths.imageJson
. (#2227) - Added automatic update checks. Jib will now display a message if there is a new version of Jib available. See the privacy page for more details. (#2193)
- Removed

. (#1897) - HTTP redirection URLs are no longer sanitized in order to work around an issue with certain registries that do not conform to HTTP standards. This resolves an issue with using Red Hat OpenShift and Quay registries. (#2106, #1986)
- Requires Gradle 5.1 or newer (up from 4.9).
- The default base image cache location has been changed on MacOS and Windows. (#2216)
- MacOS (
$XDG_CACHE_HOME
defined): from$XDG_CACHE_HOME/google-cloud-tools-java/jib/
to$XDG_CACHE_HOME/Google/Jib/
- MacOS (
$XDG_CACHE_HOME
not defined): from$HOME/Library/Application Support/google-cloud-tools-java/jib/
to$HOME/Library/Caches/Google/Jib/
- Windows (
$XDG_CACHE_HOME
defined): from$XDG_CACHE_HOME\google-cloud-tools-java\jib\
to$XDG_CACHE_HOME\Google\Jib\Cache\
- Windows (
$XDG_CACHE_HOME
not defined): from%LOCALAPPDATA%\google-cloud-tools-java\jib\
to%LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Jib\Cache\
- Initial builds will be slower until the cache is repopulated, unless you manually move the cache from the old location to the new location
- MacOS (
jibBuildTar
withjib.container.format='OCI'
now builds a correctly formatted OCI archive. (#2124)- Now
jib.containerizingMode='packaged'
works as intended with Spring Boot projects that generate a fat JAR. (#2178) - Now automatically refreshes Docker registry authentication tokens when expired, fixing the issue that long-running builds may fail with "401 unauthorized." (#691)
- Requires Gradle 4.9 or newer (up from 4.6).
- Optimized building to a registry with local base images. (#1913)
- Fixed reporting parent build file when
skaffold init
is run on multi-module projects. (#2091) - Now correctly uses the
war
task if it is enabled and thebootWar
task is disabled for Spring WAR projects. (#2096) allowInsecureRegistries
and thesendCredentialsOverHttp
system property are now effective for authentication service server connections. (#2074)- Fixed inefficient communications when interacting with insecure registries and servers (when
allowInsecureRegistries
is set). (#946)
jib.outputPaths
object for configuration output file locations (#1561)jib.outputPaths.tar
configures output path ofjibBuildTar
(build/jib-image.tar
by default)jib.outputPaths.digest
configures the output path of the image digest (build/jib-image.digest
by default)jib.outputPaths.imageId
configures output path of the image id (build/jib-image.id
by default)
- Main class inference support for Java 13/14. (#2015)
- Local base image layers are now processed in parallel, speeding up builds using large local base images. (#1913)
- The base image manifest is no longer pulled from the registry if a digest is provided and the manifest is already cached. (#1881)
- Docker daemon base images are now cached more effectively, speeding up builds using
docker://
base images. (#1912)
- Fixed temporary directory cleanup during builds using local base images. (#2016)
- Fixed additional tags being ignored when building to a tarball. (#2043)
- Fixed
tar://
base image failing if tar does not contain explicit directory entries. (#2067)
- Fixed an issue with using custom base images in Java 12+ projects. (#1995)
- Support for local base images by prefixing
jib.from.image
withdocker://
to build from a docker daemon image, ortar://
to build from a tarball image. (#1468, #1905)
- To disable parallel execution, the property
jib.serialize
should be used instead ofjibSerialize
. (#1968) - For retrieving credentials from Docker config (
~/.docker/config.json
),credHelpers
now takes precedence overcredsStore
, followed byauths
. (#1958) - The legacy
credsStore
no longer requires defining empty registry entries inauths
to be used. This now means that ifcredsStore
is defined,auths
will be completely ignored. (#1958) jib.dockerClient
is now configurable on all tasks, not justjibDockerBuild
. (#1932)jibDockerBuild.dockerClient
is deprecated in favor ofjib.dockerClient
.
- Fixed the regression of slow network operations introduced at 1.5.0. (#1980)
- Fixed an issue where connection timeout sometimes fell back to attempting plain HTTP (non-HTTPS) requests when
allowInsecureRegistries
is set. (#1949)
- Fixed an issue interacting with certain registries due to changes to URL handling in the underlying Apache HttpClient library. (#1924)
- Can now set timestamps (last modified time) of the files in the built image with
jib.container.filesModificationTime
. The value should either beEPOCH_PLUS_SECOND
to set the timestamps to Epoch + 1 second (default behavior), or an ISO 8601 date time parsable withDateTimeFormatter.ISO_DATE_TIME
such as2019-07-15T10:15:30+09:00
or2011-12-03T22:42:05Z
. (#1818) - Can now set container creation timestamp with
jib.container.creationTime
. The value should beEPOCH
,USE_CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
, or an ISO 8601 date time. (#1609) - For Google Container Registry (gcr.io), Jib now tries Google Application Default Credentials (ADC) last when no credentials can be retrieved. ADC are available on many Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environments (such as Google Cloud Build, Google Compute Engine, Google Kubernetes Engine, and Google App Engine). Application Default Credentials can also be configured with
gcloud auth application-default login
locally or through theGOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS
environment variable. (#1902)
- When building to a registry, Jib now skips downloading and caching base image layers that already exist in the target registry. This feature will be particularly useful in CI/CD environments. However, if you want to force caching base image layers locally, set the system property
-Djib.alwaysCacheBaseImage=true
. (#1840) jib.container.useCurrentTimestamp
has been deprecated in favor ofjib.container.creationTime
withUSE_CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
. (#1609)
- Can now containerize a JAR artifact instead of putting individual
.class
and resource files withjib.containerizingMode = 'packaged'
. (#1760) - Now automatically supports WAR created by the Spring Boot Gradle Plugin via the
bootWar
task. (#1786) - Can now use
jib.from.image = 'scratch'
to use the scratch (empty) base image for builds. (#1794)
- Dependencies are now split into three layers: dependencies, snapshots dependencies, project dependencies. (#1724)
- Re-enabled cross-repository blob mounts. (#1793)
- Manifest lists referenced directly by sha256 are automatically parsed and the first
linux/amd64
manifest is used. (#1811)
- Docker credentials (
~/.docker/config.json
) are now given priority over registry-based inferred credential helpers. (#1704)
- Fixed an issue with
jibBuildTar
whereUP-TO-DATE
checks were incorrect. (#1757)
- Container configurations in the base image are now propagated when registry uses the old V2 image manifest, schema version 1 (such as Quay). (#1641)
- Can now prepend paths in the container to the computed classpath with
jib.container.extraClasspath
. (#1642) - Can now build in offline mode using
--offline
. (#718) - Now supports multiple extra directories with
jib.extraDirectories.{paths|.permissions}
. (#1020)
jib.extraDirectory({.path|.permissions})
are deprecated in favor of the newjib.extraDirectories.{paths|.permissions}
configurations. (#1671)
- Labels in the base image are now propagated. (#1643)
- Fixed an issue with using OCI base images. (#1683)
- Fixed an issue where automatically generated parent directories in a layer did not get their timestamp configured correctly to epoch + 1s. (#1648)
- Fixed an issue where the plugin creates wrong images by adding base image layers in reverse order when registry uses the old V2 image manifest, schema version 1 (such as Quay). (#1627)
os
andarchitecture
are taken from base image. (#1564)
- Fixed an issue where pushing to Docker Hub fails when the host part of an image reference is
docker.io
. (#1549)
- Java 9+ WAR projects are now supported and run on the distroless Jetty Java 11 image (https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/distroless) by default. Java 8 projects remain on the distroless Jetty Java 8 image. (#1510)
- Now supports authentication against Azure Container Registry using
docker-credential-acr-*
credential helpers. (#1490)
- Fixed an issue where setting
allowInsecureRegistries
may fail to try HTTP. (#1517) - Crash on talking to servers that do not set the
Content-Length
HTTP header or send an incorrect value. (#1512)
- Java 9+ projects are now supported and run on the distroless Java 11 image (https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/distroless) by default. Java 8 projects remain on the distroless Java 8 image. (#1279)
- Failure to infer main class when main method is defined using varargs (i.e.
public static void main(String... args)
). (#1456)
- Shortened progress bar display - make sure console window is at least 50 characters wide or progress bar display can be messy. (#1361)
- Setting proxy credentials (via system properties
http(s).proxyUser
andhttp(s).proxyPassword
) is now supported.
- Java 9+ projects using the default distroless Java 8 base image will now fail to build. (#1143)
