feat(ci): publish releases to Red Hat hosted registry alongside docker.io - #706
Merged
Conversation
…r.io The first certification run after the preflight fixes cleared every check but died at submission: "The container.registry field is immutable for projects with hosted registry". The certification project is a hosted-registry project - Pyxis requires the certified image in quay.io/redhat-isv-containers/<project-id>, from where Red Hat serves customers via registry.connect.redhat.com. Nothing had ever pushed there: ci.yml publishes only docker.io/labsai/eddi, and the old quay.io option targeted the generic quay.io/labsai/eddi, satisfying neither model. EDDI now distributes on both registries. Docker Hub stays primary, published by ci.yml on the release tag, unchanged. redhat-certify.yml becomes the Red Hat publication path: pull the released docker.io/labsai/eddi:<version>, retag into the hosted repo as <version> and <version>-<release>, push only those two, assert at the registry that the pushed digest equals the released digest, then run preflight --submit against the hosted coordinate. All invariants from the previous rewrite carry over: no rebuild ever, inputs reach the shell only via env:, version/release format-validated, digests read via buildx imagetools, preflight pinned at 1.20.0 by version and SHA256. The registry dispatch input is gone - source is always docker.io, destination always the hosted repo. Requires two new secrets from the certification project Registry key page: REDHAT_REGISTRY_USERNAME and REDHAT_REGISTRY_KEY. Docs updated.

redhat-certify.yml gains a workflow_call trigger, and ci.yml gains a redhat-publish job that calls it after the smoke test on every stable release tag (X.Y.Z only - the is-stable output the docker job already computed is now exposed and gates it, so RCs never reach the catalog). version comes from the tag, release is 1; re-submissions stay manual via workflow_dispatch with a bumped release number. Also removes a guaranteed-red trap: Preflight Verify (Pushed Image) submitted to Pyxis on every release tag against the docker.io image - which, against a hosted-registry project, is exactly the 400 the certify run hit. Left alone, every future release tag would have gone red at that step even with the certify workflow fixed. It is now verification-only; submission lives solely in redhat-certify.yml against the hosted copy.

The first certification run after #705 cleared every preflight check but died at submission:
Our certification project is a hosted registry project: Pyxis requires the certified image to live in
quay.io/redhat-isv-containers/<project-id>, from where Red Hat serves customers viaregistry.connect.redhat.com. Nothing in this repo has ever pushed there -ci.ymlpublishes onlydocker.io/labsai/eddi, and this workflow's oldquay.iooption targeted the genericquay.io/labsai/eddi, which satisfies neither model.The two-registry model
Per the maintainer's decision, EDDI distributes on both registries going forward:
docker.io/labsai/eddici.ymlquay.io/redhat-isv-containers/<pid>->registry.connect.redhat.comredhat-certify.ymlWhat the workflow does now
docker.io/labsai/eddi:<version>and records its registry digest/licensesinside the pulled image<version>(customer-facing) and<version>-<release>(this attempt's coordinate) and pushes only those two - a retag reuses the manifest, so the hosted tags carry the same digest as the release, asserted after pushing<version>-<release>with--submitAll invariants from #705 carry over: no rebuild ever, inputs reach the shell only via
env:, version/release format-validated, digests read viabuildx imagetools(registry-side), preflight pinned by version + SHA256. Theregistrydispatch input is removed - the source is always docker.io and the destination is always the hosted repo, so a choice there could only misdirect.Before the first run: two new secrets

Re-submissions stay manual via dispatch with a bumped release number. Secrets flow viasecrets: inherit.Preflight Verify (Pushed Image)submitted to Pyxis on every release tag against the docker.io image - exactly the hosted-registry 400. Left alone, every future release tag would have failed at that step even with this PR's certify workflow. It is now verification-only; submission lives solely in the hosted-path workflow.With this, the full per-release flow is: tag push -> ci.yml builds, tests, pushes docker.io tags, signs, attests, smoke-tests ->
redhat-publishretags the same digest intoquay.io/redhat-isv-containers/<pid>and submits certification. Both registries, one digest, zero manual steps after the tag.
