Images

Tip

Use imageSelector to select the image to use for a container.

Images are defined in the following format:

image:

For additional images, you can define them in the following format:

nameImage:
  repository: ""
  tag: ""
  pullPolicy: IfNotPresent

Note

There isn’t anything special in the above format (nameImage), it’s just a convention. It’s also a format that some external tools can use for automatic image updates. For example, Renovate
