Aad-pod-identity: next release

[bnookala]

I'm working on a project that would only like to use releases of the aad-pod-identity project. We noted that the last release was in January (https://github.com/Azure/aad-pod-identity/releases/tag/1.3.0-mic-1.4.0-nmi), but there have been a number of commits to the project since. Just wondering if this next milestone reflects the progress towards the next release? https://github.com/Azure/aad-pod-identity/milestone/1

We are also currently blocked by this issue, because current aad-pod-identity only works in Azure Public Cloud (https://github.com/Azure/aad-pod-identity/issues/224). We have an immediate need to move to USGov and China.

I see that fix has already been checked into master on May 22.

Is there a guide on how to build a custom image from master branch and use it until new release is out?

@bnookala , @sukhong - Thank you for the issue and interest in aad-pod-identity. We are planning for a release around July end/early August as we wrap up the project items in https://github.com/Azure/aad-pod-identity/milestone/1. We are planning to release an RC version from the current code next week. Will update this thread with the information on running those images next week.

@sukhong -
for custom image building you can use the the following steps:
make build
make image
make push
Please note that the variable values for REGISTRY, MIC_IMAGE, NMI_IMAGE, IDENTITY_VALIDATOR_IMAGE, DEMO_IMAGE, MIC_VERSION, NMI_VERSION, IDENTITY_VALIDATOR_VERSION, DEMO_VERSION should be set as per the required image names and version.

For example, if the repo name is 'test.azurecr.io', then the
export REGISTRY=test.azurecr.io
after setting the USE_VERSION variable to custom version update, export the following for getting the mic image.
export MIC_IMAGE=mic:$USE_VERSION
export MIC_VERSION=$USE_VERSION

Please set the rest of variables for other images. Also, please note that the deployment files should be changed to use the new images in the corresponding acr.

Hope that helps.
