Tekton Triggers Releases

Release Frequency

Tekton Triggers follows the Tekton community release policy as follows:

• Versions are numbered according to semantic versioning: vX.Y.Z
• A new release is produced on a monthly basis, when enough content is available
• Four releases a year are chosen for long term support (LTS). All remaining releases are supported for approximately 1 month (until the next release is produced)
  • LTS releases take place in January, April, July and October every year
  • The first Tekton Triggers LTS release will be v0.22.0 in October 2022
  • Releases usually happen towards the middle of the month, but the exact date may vary, depending on week-ends and readiness

Tekton Triggers produces nightly builds, publicly available on gcr.io/tekton-nightly.

Transition Process

Before release v0.22 Tekton Triggers has worked on the basis of an undocumented support period of four months, which will be maintained for the release v0.21.

Release Process

Tekton Triggers releases are made of YAML manifests and container images. Manifests are published to cloud object-storage as well as GitHub. Container images are signed by Sigstore via Tekton Chains; signatures can be verified through the public key hosted by the Tekton Chains project.
