lifecycle v0.18.0-rc.1

lifecycle v0.18.0-rc.1

Welcome to v0.18.0-rc.1, a pre-release of the Cloud Native Buildpacks Lifecycle.

Prerequisites

The lifecycle runs as a normal user in a series of unprivileged containers. To export images and cache image layers, it requires access to a Docker (compatible) daemon or an OCI registry.

Install

Extract the .tgz file and copy the lifecycle binaries into a build image. The build image can then be orchestrated by a platform implementation such as the pack CLI or tekton.

Lifecycle Image

An OCI image containing the lifecycle binaries is available at buildpacksio/lifecycle:0.18.0-rc.1.
