Hello dear community, I hope it's not too much of a trivial question but can you explain why you choose a tagging schema like this for your Docker images?: 3.2.0-alpine vs 3.2.0-3-alpine for example? I am asking this because we are using Renovate in our project, yet have to implement a special rule for wiremock (and keycloak) because Renovate interprets 3.2.0-3-alpine in terms of "compatibility" like this: version = 3.2.0 an compatibility = 3 (because the 3 is the first thing after the dash). By this we lose actually the "alpine" information and the update does not work properly without a special rule. So my question is: what's the difference between 3.2.0-alpine and 3.2.0-3-alpine? Is it generally more favorable to use 3.2.0-3-alpine vs. 3.2.0-alpine? Thanks and sorry for the maybe stupid question. Also thanks for the amazing work you are doing! \Phillip Möller

Essentially it’s because the 3.2.0 bit is the actual WireMock core version and the -3 is the Docker build version. If we were to drop the -3 it would mean we’d need to either only ever produce one Docker image per WireMock core build or start bumping the WireMock core patch version just to get new Docker images.

Thanks Tom. Also, I realized that it is usually desirable to have the latest build because then I can get also an updated version of the base image for example. This will usually increase security.

Yes, four digit versions are deliberate.

3.2.0

indeed means

3.2.0-latest
