NAME
buildah-manifest-annotate - Add and update information about an image or
artifact to a manifest list or image index.
SYNOPSIS
buildah manifest annotate [options...] listNameOrIndexName imageMani-
festDigestOrImageOrArtifactName
DESCRIPTION
Adds or updates information about an image or artifact included in a
manifest list or image index.
RETURN VALUE
The list image's ID and the digest of the image's manifest.
OPTIONS
--annotation annotation=value
Set an annotation on the entry for the specified image or artifact. If
--index is also specified, sets the annotation on the entire image in-
dex.
--arch
Override the architecture which the list or index records as a require-
ment for the image. This is usually automatically retrieved from the
image's configuration information, so it is rarely necessary to use this
option.
--features
Specify the features list which the list or index records as require-
ments for the image. This option is rarely used.
--index
Treats arguments to the --annotation option as annotation values to be
set on the image index itself rather than on an entry in the image in-
dex. Implied for --subject.
--os
Override the OS which the list or index records as a requirement for the
image. This is usually automatically retrieved from the image's config-
uration information, so it is rarely necessary to use this option.
--os-features
Specify the OS features list which the list or index records as require-
ments for the image. This option is rarely used.
--os-version
Specify the OS version which the list or index records as a requirement
for the image. This option is rarely used.
--subject imageName
Set the subject field in the image index to mark the image index as be-
ing associated with the specified image in some way. An image index can
only be associated with, at most, one subject.
--variant
Specify the variant which the list or index records for the image. This
option is typically used to distinguish between multiple entries which
share the same architecture value, but which expect different versions
of its instruction set.
