Clojure's official Docker images have some new releases for new versions of tools-deps, boot, and the JDK itself.
The following new Docker tags are now available (and all of the combinations you'd expect plus a few new ones I'll describe shortly): - tools-deps-1.10.1.469 - boot-2.8.3 - openjdk-13 - openjdk-14 These releases were more delayed than we would have ideally liked because there were quite a few upstream changes in the openjdk images we build from. One of the biggest changes to be aware of is that the upstream Alpine Linux OpenJDK images are generally deprecated and unsupported now (except for the JDK 14 early access, but even that is likely to go away when 14 is released), so our alpine-based images are deprecated except for the openjdk-14 ones (for now). They won't be deleted from Docker Hub right away, but they are unsupported and will not receive security nor version updates going forward. We apologize for the inconvenience, but the OpenJDK Project Portola needs volunteers to help test and maintain Alpine-based builds for these to become officially supported and trickle back down to Clojure images. See here for more information on that: https://openjdk.java.net/projects/portola/ We recommend migrating to the slim-buster images for now. And on that note, we have added new Debian release code name tags as well, to better reflect the upstream openjdk images. The following tags (and combinations with other tags) are now available: - openjdk-8-stretch: default; so you can omit -stretch if you want, but we recommend being explicit when possible - openjdk-8-slim-buster: newer but you have to request it explicitly - openjdk-11-stretch: default just like openjdk-8 - openjdk-11-slim-buster: newer but you have to request it explicitly - openjdk-13-slim-buster: default for openjdk-13 - openjdk-13-buster - openjdk-14-slim-buster: default for openjdk-14 - openjdk-14-buster - openjdk-14-alpine Another important change to be aware of is that, starting now and going forward, the default JDK version you'll get in tags that don't specify a particular version will be the latest LTS release, which is currently JDK 11. When the next LTS is released (currently planned to be JDK 17 in 2021), we will switch to that. If you want to stay on JDK 8, you'll need prefix whatever image tag you're using with "openjdk-8-". But we encourage everyone to test on and migrate to OpenJDK 11 soon, and to specify that in your tags too (i.e. "openjdk-11-[lein/boot/tools-deps]") so you can control when you move to the next LTS release down the road. This brings me to one more change I want to highlight: The "latest" tag (which is what you get when you don't specify a tag at all) is now moving to the latest LTS JDK release (currently 11) on the latest slim Debian release (currently slim-buster) with the latest leiningen release (currently 2.9.1). So as of now the images "clojure" and "clojure:latest" are equivalent to "clojure:openjdk-11-lein-2.9.1-slim-buster". One consequence of this is that you may have to install more system packages than you're used to due to the switch to slim-buster. See here for all of the new tags that are available now: https://hub.docker.com/_/clojure?tab=tags And in case you didn't know, the official clojure Docker images are built via a Clojure project which is hosted here: https://github.com/Quantisan/docker-clojure. If there are things you'd like to see added or changed, pitch in!
