lifecycle v0.4.0

This is the fourth beta release of the Cloud Native Buildpack Lifecycle. This implementation should be relatively stable and reliable, but breaking changes in the underlying specification may be implemented without notice.

NOTICE: This release contains breaking changes for buildpacks. See below.

Prerequisites

The lifecycle runs as a normal user in a series of unprivileged Linux containers. To export images and cache image layers, it requires access to a Docker daemon or Docker registry.

Install

Extract the .tgz file and copy the lifecycle binaries into a build stack base image. The build image can then be orchestrated by a platform implementation such as the pack CLI or knative.

Notice of Breaking Changes

This release contains breaking changes for buildpacks. While the latest version of the pack CLI remains compatible with this release, any buildpacks that ship with the release will need to be updated to match the following specification changes:
buildpacks/spec#55
buildpacks/spec#53
buildpacks/spec#52
buildpacks/spec#51

Additional context in these RFCs:
buildpacks/rfcs#20
buildpacks/rfcs#19
buildpacks/rfcs#15
buildpacks/rfcs#14
buildpacks/rfcs#12
buildpacks/rfcs#11
