This repo contains the code needed to run Gaffer using Docker or Kubernetes. There are two main sub-folders, 'docker' and 'kubernetes', which contain the project files you need for starting Gaffer using those services.

For information on how to run Gaffer using Docker containers please see the documentation: Gaffer Docker Docs

We also provide some example deployments with different store backings to help you get started learning and testing Gaffer. Please see the example deployments directory for more details.

For information on how to run Gaffer using Kubernetes, please see the documentation: Gaffer Kubernetes Docs

Each of the released images will be tagged with the version of the software they represent. Every release we update the latest tag for each image and add a new release which has the corresponding version tag.

If we release Gaffer version 2.1.2, the following images would be uploaded:

• gchq/gaffer:latest
• gchq/gaffer:2
• gchq/gaffer:2.1
• gchq/gaffer:2.1.2
• gchq/gaffer:2.1.2-accumulo-2.0.1

We maintain mutable versions of latest, as well as the major, minor and bugfix versions of Gaffer. For reproducibility make sure to use the full version in your build metadata. For gaffer/gaffer-rest images, we also create a tag including the accumulo version, this allows for compatibility with Accumulo 1.9.3 in our tests. The -accumulo-1.9.3 tagged images are not published but can be built locally if required.

The release process is automated by GitHub actions.
