Consider automation of WDQS Front-end and QuickStatements releases
Open, LowPublicSpike

Description

Evaluate the feasibility and desirability of automated WDQS Frontend and Quickstatements image updates:

  • What would trigger releases for each product, and how reliable is that trigger?
  • Are the upstream updates stable enough that we know we would want to release them automatically?
  • Even if feasible is this undesirable for any reason (e.g. possible in-stability of our releases, etc)?

This is a spike to better understand what possible engineering actions we may want to take. Any actual implementation should track and likely work the same as the results of: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T393548

Leif_WMDE moved this task from Inbox to Engineering Backlog on the Wikibase Suite Team board.

Work was recently completed as an implicit part of the new WBS 8 development/test/release tooling. To check and update dependencies for all images, including Wikibase, WDQS, WDQS Frontend, and QuickStatemetns run development/wbs-dev update for a guided update procedure.
