get docker image details like date

[Mohan Kona]

I have defined a docker image in the the definitions, and in later in the steps, i want to verify the image(if its the latest one) using the creation date of the image.

definitions:

  services:

    frontend:

       image:

          name: my-image:latest

Hi Mohan,

You would need to pull the image during the step and then use the docker inspect command, something like the following:

pipelines:
  default:
    - step:
        services:
          - docker
          - frontend
        script:
          - docker pull my-image:latest
          - docker inspect my-image:latest | grep -i created

definitions:
  services:
    frontend:
      image:
        name: my-image:latest

Please keep in mind though that if a newer version of that image is pushed between the time that the service's image is pulled when the step starts and the time that you pull the image during the step's script, then you'll get the creation date for the newer image and not the one Pipelines used in this step.

Kind regards,
Theodora
