Info on hub.docker.com still outdated

[Tekki]

My comment in #15 didn't get noticed, I open a new issue.
Your repo on Docker Hub is not an automated build, you have to update the README manually.
Here you find more infos about automated builds. Seems it isn't possible to convert an existing repo, there is an open issue on Docker: docker/hub-feedback#794

I don't want to be the one who always complains, so I'll propose some changes to the README.

Sounds like one needs to create a PR updating https://github.com/docker-library/docs/tree/master/rakudo-star

This can be semi-automated via adding an update.sh in this repo and letting @docker-library-bot commit here, cf Perl/docker-perl#24 (comment)

Now that 2019.03 is on Dockerhub, why is the README still not updated?

[tianon]

That'd be because nobody has made a PR to https://github.com/docker-library/docs/tree/master/rakudo-star 😄

To be clear, giving @docker-library-bot commit bits here would not do anything with README.md -- the format in https://github.com/docker-library/docs/tree/master/rakudo-star is different (and templated so that all official images have a consistent image description format).

The approach we take with images maintained under https://github.com/docker-library is to make the README.md inside the repository just a stub that points to Docker Hub as the canonical source (see https://github.com/docker-library/golang#readme, for example), which helps us avoid duplicated documentation effort.

Some other images prefer to keep the documentation on Docker Hub explicitly slim and link elsewhere for documentation (either to a markdown file in GitHub or better yet to actual upstream documentation content so the documentation for the image lives within the proper upstream documentation directly).

Let's see if I can take care of this... But I don't have the permissions in Docker Hub, so it might be for nothing...

[Tekki]

I have permission, and it's not required. But I think that an official maintainer has to make this PR.

[tianon]

It doesn't require any permissions of any kind -- we just need someone to take a look at https://github.com/docker-library/docs/blob/master/rakudo-star/content.md and provide a PR to that repository updating it as desired (which we then typically ask one of the image maintainers to sign-off on whether they approve of the changes).

[JJ]

Even more outdated now...

I've updated the info that I could find how to update. If stuff's still wrong, please open a merge request against docker-library/docs.
