# Annotations
|
|
Several components of the specification, like [Image Manifests](manifest.md) and [Descriptors](descriptor.md), feature an optional annotations property, whose format is common and defined in this section.
|
|
|
|
This property contains arbitrary metadata.
|
|
|
|
## Rules
|
|
|
|
* Annotations MUST be a key-value map where both the key and value MUST be strings.
|
|
* While the value MUST be present, it MAY be an empty string.
|
|
* Keys MUST be unique within this map, and best practice is to namespace the keys.
|
|
* Keys SHOULD be named using a reverse domain notation - e.g. `com.example.myKey`.
|
|
* The prefix `org.opencontainers` is reserved for keys defined in Open Container Initiative (OCI) specifications and MUST NOT be used by other specifications and extensions.
|
|
* Keys using the `org.opencontainers.image` namespace are reserved for use in the OCI Image Specification and MUST NOT be used by other specifications and extensions, including other OCI specifications.
|
|
* If there are no annotations then this property MUST either be absent or be an empty map.
|
|
* Consumers MUST NOT generate an error if they encounter an unknown annotation key.
|
|
|
|
## Pre-Defined Annotation Keys
|
|
|
|
This specification defines the following annotation keys, intended for but not limited to [image index](image-index.md) and image [manifest](manifest.md) authors:
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.created** date and time on which the image was built (string, date-time as defined by [RFC 3339](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339#section-5.6)).
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.authors** contact details of the people or organization responsible for the image (freeform string)
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.url** URL to find more information on the image (string)
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.documentation** URL to get documentation on the image (string)
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.source** URL to get source code for building the image (string)
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.version** version of the packaged software
|
|
* The version MAY match a label or tag in the source code repository
|
|
* version MAY be [Semantic versioning-compatible](http://semver.org/)
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.revision** Source control revision identifier for the packaged software.
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.vendor** Name of the distributing entity, organization or individual.
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.licenses** License(s) under which contained software is distributed as an [SPDX License Expression][spdx-license-expression].
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.ref.name** Name of the reference for a target (string).
|
|
* SHOULD only be considered valid when on descriptors on `index.json` within [image layout](image-layout.md).
|
|
* Character set of the value SHOULD conform to alphanum of `A-Za-z0-9` and separator set of `-._:@/+`
|
|
* The reference must match the following [grammar](considerations.md#ebnf):
|
|
```
|
|
ref ::= component ("/" component)*
|
|
component ::= alphanum (separator alphanum)*
|
|
alphanum ::= [A-Za-z0-9]+
|
|
separator ::= [-._:@+] | "--"
|
|
```
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.title** Human-readable title of the image (string)
|
|
* **org.opencontainers.image.description** Human-readable description of the software packaged in the image (string)
|
|
|
|
## Back-compatibility with Label Schema
|
|
|
|
[Label Schema](https://label-schema.org) defined a number of conventional labels for container images, and these are now superceded by annotations with keys starting **org.opencontainers.image**.
|
|
|
|
While users are encouraged to use the **org.opencontainers.image** keys, tools MAY choose to support compatible annotations using the **org.label-schema** prefix as follows.
|
|
|
|
| `org.opencontainers.image` prefix | `org.label-schema prefix` | Compatibility notes |
