# Generate semver tags for docker images

Semver is nice. The somewhat tricky part is allowing a service to be pinned to a specific MAJOR version
and then tagging your released docker images accordingly.

Given we have the following tags in our repo:
* `0.1.0`
* `0.2.0`
* `0.3.0`

And we then build `0.2.1` - what tags should be applied?

This tools tries to generate those tags. It'll spit out:
`0.2` and `0.2.1`. It will not touch the `0` tag as this should still point to `0.3.0`.

So, in your kubernetes defintions you might then deploy $ARTFACT:0.2 and you'll get updates for the 0.2
branch.

Handling of `latest` is so simple that you don't need any tooling. The tricky bits are sticking on a MAJOR
or MINOR version.

The regular expression used is taken from semver.org.

## Usage
Find a way to get a hold of your current tags.

```shell script
$ cat EXISTING_TAGS | python3 semver-tag.py 0.2.1
```
Complete:
```
echo "0.1.0
0.2.0
0.3.0" | python3 semver-tag.py 0.2.1
0.2.1 0.2
```
I'm using this to in the scripts that apply tags.

You'll need to integrate this with your registry somehow.

Note that this tool hasn't been given much testing. However, as I found nothing like it I thought it might make
sense to publish it. File and issue if you have any comments.

### Bugs and weird stuff:

Ironically there is no versioning of this script. I suggest you copy and adapt.
