Immich docker containers do not contain correct labels for renovate to show changelogs / release notes

[chrishoage]

Currently the images published do not have the correct labels for renovate to show release notes

The package link points to https://github.com/immich-app/base-images

If this could get addressed that would be great!

The Renovate docs outline the following to support pulling release notes from a docker version bump:

This datasource identifies an image's source repository according to the pre-defined annotation keys of the OCI Image Format Specification.

This datasource looks for the metadata of the latest stable image found on the Docker registry and uses the value of the label org.opencontainers.image.source and org.label-schema.vcs-url as the sourceUrl. Additionally, it uses the value of the label org.opencontainers.image.revision as the gitRef.

The Label Schema is superseded by OCI annotations, use the org.opencontainers.image.source label if possible.

If you maintain a Docker image and want Renovate to find your changelogs, add a org.opencontainers.image.source field to your Dockerfile. The link must point to your GitHub or GitLab repository. Here's an example from our renovate/renovate Dockerfile:

LABEL org.opencontainers.image.source="https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate"

The current immich docker images have the following labels:

                "org.opencontainers.image.created": "2025-03-25T11:18:49.059Z",
                "org.opencontainers.image.description": "Base images for Immich containers",
                "org.opencontainers.image.licenses": "AGPL-3.0",
                "org.opencontainers.image.revision": "4faae948b472d3a10a338389fea7467a420524b3",
                "org.opencontainers.image.source": "https://github.com/immich-app/base-images",
                "org.opencontainers.image.title": "base-images",
                "org.opencontainers.image.url": "https://github.com/immich-app/base-images",
                "org.opencontainers.image.version": "202503251114"

Note:

• image.source does not point to https://github.com/immich-app/immich
• image.revision does not point to 43f8f473e95438cabef3626f149389213a353004

It does appear the env of the build does contain the correct information, but they don't make it to the labels applied to the final image.

I took a look through the workflows and it's not immediately clear why the labels are wrong. Here is the job which created the image - but the labels appear correct here https://github.com/immich-app/immich/actions/runs/14069817240/job/39401444825

In any case, the labels do not get applied.

here is the full JSON output from `docker image inspect`
