tagwatch

Tagwatch

Watches container registries for new and changed tags and creates an RSS feed for detected changes.

Configuration

Tagwatch is configured through the ./tagwatch.yml file which is read from the current working directory. Alternatively, the config can be read from the path configured in the TAGWATCH_CONF environment variable.

Installation

From Docker Hub

Checks configured tags every 12 hours and serves the generated feed on http://container.ip:8080/feed.xml

docker run -v $PWD/tagwatch.yml:/tagwatch.yml woefe/tagwatch:latest

Manually

# Clone and build tagwatch
git clone https://github.com/woefe/tagwatch
cd tagwatch
go build

# Show help
./tagwatch help

# Print the generated feed for the example config once
TAGWATCH_CONF=tagwatch.example.yml ./tagwatch run

Limitations

Every checked tag counts as a pull according to the rate limitation mechanism employed at the Docker Hub. Hence, be careful which tag patterns you watch with tagwatch. A simple .* pattern will instantly consume all pulls of the free tier in many cases!

As of now, tagwatch is only tested with the Docker Hub registry.
