Container image and Helm chart versions update Action

Action to update container image and Helm versions. This action will use Container Image provider APIs (only compatible with hub.docker.com ghcr.io) and Helm repositories to get the newest version (using Semantic Versioning logic), without the need to pull the images or charts.

For now, it is not able to parse projects and update theirs files directly. Therefore, it needs a version file in YAML format like the following one:

container_image_version:
  postgresql/postgresql: '15.0'

helm_chart_repository:
  bitnami: https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
helm_chart_version:
  bitnami/postgresql: 10.0.1

Inputs

Name	Type	Description
versions-file	String	Path to the versions file
skip-container	Boolean	true if you want to update only Container images. Default: false
skip-helm	Boolean	true if you want to update only Helm charts. Default: false
version-type	String	Which maximun version change you expect to find. It can be: major, minor and patch. Default: minor

Note

For parsing ghcr.io container packages, the GITHUB_TOKEN is obligatory.
