### Image Tiers
| Tier | Description | Inherits From |
|------|-------------|---------------|
| `minimal` | Minimal bootable base | - |
| `minimal-plus` | Shared base for Fedora image-based variants | minimal |
| `standard` | Full generic base image | minimal-plus |
| `iot` | IoT-specific variant | minimal-plus |
See the [README](README.md) for details on the different image tiers (minimal, minimal-plus, standard, iot).
### Renovate Automation
| Dependency | Schedule | Purpose |
|------------|----------|---------|
| `REPOS_IMAGE` | At any time | Updates compose image reference |
| `bootc-pipeline` | 2-5 AM UTC daily | Updates Tekton pipeline |
Both are auto-merged when tests pass.

This section describes how to add a new Fedora version or remove an EOL version from Konflux.
**Example scenario:** Fedora 42 is going EOL and needs to be removed. Rawhide is becoming Fedora 46, so we need to add Fedora 45 (the new branched release).
**Example scenario:** Fedora 42 is going EOL and needs to be removed. Rawhide (F45) is branching, so we need to add Fedora 44 as the new branched release.
### Adding a New Fedora Version to Konflux
When Rawhide branches to a new Fedora version (e.g., Rawhide → F46, creating F45 as branched), follow these steps:
#### Step 1: Add Release to compose-images Repo
#### Step 1: Create Tekton Pipelines (base-images repo)
**Repository:** https://gitlab.com/fedora/bootc/compose-images
Create 12 new pipeline files in `.tekton/` by copying from an existing version (e.g., F44):
Add the new release definition so that compose images are generated for the new version. This must be done first as base-images depends on these compose images.
1. Create new Tekton pipelines in `.tekton/` for the new version (copy from existing version)
2. Update `RELEASEVER`, `COMPOSE_BRANCHED`, and labels in the new pipelines
3. Add a package rule for the new version in `renovate.json`
See [MR !187](https://gitlab.com/fedora/bootc/compose-images/-/merge_requests/187) for reference (F44 addition).
#### Step 2: Create Tekton Pipelines (base-images repo)
**Repository:** https://gitlab.com/fedora/bootc/base-images
Copy the current release pipelines to the new version and update rawhide for the next version.
See the code snippets used for F44 in [MR !363 comment](https://gitlab.com/fedora/bootc/base-images/-/merge_requests/363#note_3071603283) for reference.
#### Step 3: Update Renovate Configuration (base-images repo)
Add package rules for the new version in `renovate.json`. See the existing rules for other versions as a template.
#### Step 4: Create Tenant Configuration (tenants-config repo)
**Repository:** https://gitlab.com/fedora/infrastructure/konflux/tenants-config
```bash
cd base-images/.tekton/
cd cluster/kfluxfedorap01/bootc-tenant/applications/fedora-bootc/
NEW_RELEASE=44
# For each tier (minimal, minimal-plus, standard, iot) and type (push, pull-request, renovate-push):
for tier in minimal minimal-plus standard iot; do
for type in push pull-request renovate-push; do
cp fedora-bootc-44-${tier}-${type}.yaml fedora-bootc-45-${tier}-${type}.yaml
done
done
# Copy from rawhide
cp -r rawhide $NEW_RELEASE
# Update version references
sed -i "s/rawhide/$NEW_RELEASE/g" $NEW_RELEASE/**/*.yaml
sed -i "s/compose-rawhide-id/compose-branched-id/" $NEW_RELEASE/releaseplans/release-to-quay-io/kustomization.yaml
```
Then update each file, replacing:
- `fedora-bootc-44``fedora-bootc-45`
- `appstudio.openshift.io/application: fedora-bootc-44``fedora-bootc-45`
- `appstudio.openshift.io/component: fedora-bootc-44-*``fedora-bootc-45-*`
- `REPOS_IMAGE=quay.io/bootc-devel/fedora-bootc-44-compose:...``fedora-bootc-45-compose:...`
- `output-image: .../fedora-bootc-44-*``fedora-bootc-45-*`
- `org.opencontainers.image.version=44``45`
#### Step 2: Update Renovate Configuration (base-images repo)
Add package rules for the new version in `renovate.json`:
```json
{
"matchManagers": ["tekton"],
"matchPackageNames": ["/quay.io/bootc-devel/tekton-catalog/"],
"matchFileNames": [".tekton/fedora-bootc-45-*"],
"groupName": "Fedora 45 bootc-pipeline",
"groupSlug": "fedora-45-bootc-pipeline",
"branchPrefix": "renovate/fedora-45/",
"commitMessageTopic": "Fedora 45 bootc build pipeline",
"schedule": ["after 2am and before 5am"],
"timezone": "UTC",
"recreateWhen": "always",
"rebaseWhen": "always",
"additionalBranchPrefix": "",
"automerge": true
},
{
"matchManagers": ["custom.regex"],
"matchPackageNames": ["/quay.io/bootc-devel/fedora-bootc-45-compose/"],
"matchFileNames": [".tekton/fedora-bootc-45-*"],
"groupName": "Fedora 45 REPOS_IMAGE",
"groupSlug": "fedora-45-repos-image",
"branchPrefix": "renovate/fedora-45/",
"commitMessageTopic": "Fedora 45 REPOS_IMAGE",
"schedule": ["at any time"],
"recreateWhen": "always",
"rebaseWhen": "never",
"additionalBranchPrefix": "",
"automerge": true
}
```
#### Step 3: Create Tenant Configuration (tenants-config repo)
Create the new version directory structure:
```bash
cd tenants-config/cluster/kfluxfedorap01/bootc-tenant/applications/fedora-bootc/
# Copy from existing version
cp -r 44 45
```
Update files in the new `45/` directory:
1. **`releaseplans/release-to-quay-io/kustomization.yaml`** - Update component names:
```yaml
value:
- name: fedora-bootc-45-compose
repository: quay.io/bootc-devel/fedora-bootc-45-compose
tags:
- "{{ labels.compose-branched-id }}"
- name: fedora-bootc-45-minimal
repository: quay.io/bootc-devel/fedora-bootc-45-minimal
# ... etc
```
2. **All kustomization files** - Ensure paths reference the correct version
#### Step 4: Register the New Version (tenants-config repo)
#### Step 5: Register the New Version (tenants-config repo)
Add the new version to `fedora-bootc/kustomization.yaml`:
@ -343,66 +254,52 @@ apiVersion: kustomize.config.k8s.io/v1beta1

resources:
- "rawhide"
- "45" # <-- Add new version
- "44"
- "44" # <-- Add new version

```
#### Step 5: Initial REPOS_IMAGE
The new pipelines need a valid `REPOS_IMAGE`. Either:
- Wait for Renovate to detect and update it automatically
- Manually set an initial compose image reference in the tekton files
### Removing an EOL Fedora Version from Konflux
When a Fedora version reaches EOL (e.g., F42), follow these steps:
#### Step 1: Remove Tekton Pipelines (base-images repo)
Delete the pipeline files for the EOL version:
**Repository:** https://gitlab.com/fedora/bootc/base-images
```bash
cd base-images/.tekton/
rm fedora-bootc-42-*.yaml
cd .tekton/
git rm fedora-bootc-42-*.yaml
```
#### Step 2: Remove Renovate Rules (base-images repo)
Remove the package rules for F42 from `renovate.json`:
```json
// Remove these two blocks:
{
"matchManagers": ["tekton"],
"matchFileNames": [".tekton/fedora-bootc-42-*"],
...
},
{
"matchManagers": ["custom.regex"],
"matchPackageNames": ["/quay.io/bootc-devel/fedora-bootc-42-compose/"],
...
}
```
Remove the package rules for F42 from `renovate.json` (the two blocks matching `fedora-bootc-42-*`).
#### Step 3: Remove Tenant Configuration (tenants-config repo)
Remove the version from `fedora-bootc/kustomization.yaml`:
**Repository:** https://gitlab.com/fedora/infrastructure/konflux/tenants-config
```yaml
apiVersion: kustomize.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Kustomization
resources:
- "rawhide"
- "45"
- "44"
- "43"
# - "42" <-- Remove this line
```
Then delete the version directory:
Remove the version from `fedora-bootc/kustomization.yaml` and delete the directory:
```bash
cd tenants-config/cluster/kfluxfedorap01/bootc-tenant/applications/fedora-bootc/
cd cluster/kfluxfedorap01/bootc-tenant/applications/fedora-bootc/
# Edit kustomization.yaml to remove "42" from resources
# Delete the version directory
rm -rf 42/
```
#### Step 4: Remove from compose-images Repo
**Repository:** https://gitlab.com/fedora/bootc/compose-images
Remove the EOL release pipelines and renovate rules:
```bash
cd .tekton/
git rm fedora-bootc-42-compose-*.yaml
```
Also remove the package rule for F42 from `renovate.json` (the block matching `fedora-42-.*-compose`).
