Up to date binary distribution

[asieferlinger-enmacc]

Hey,

I'm trying to setup this currently on AWS Lambda.
It remains a bit unclear whats the official way to get a binary for this.

Documentation says to use a zip file from an S3 Bucket at grafanalabs-cf-templates/lambda-promtail/lambda-promtail.zip
This works, but the file is from April 2024, so very likely to be outdated.

Then there is also a docker image in the ECR public gallery at https://gallery.ecr.aws/grafana/lambda-promtail. The last push to this is from 8 months ago, and there have been plenty of commits to this repo since then.

Are there any other up to date and maintained releases / distributions of lambda-promtail?

Digging through the Actions Workflow I found another bucket s3://grafanalabs-dev-cf-templates/lambda-promtail/ that seems to contain latest builds, even when its probably not meant for distributing that.

Indeed. we'd love to see a tag in this repo and an updated image uplaoded to the ECR public gallery

We've just released a new binary https://github.com/grafana/lambda-promtail/releases/tag/v1.0.0

We do not plan to publish new Docker images anymore as the new templates use the binary.

Thank you, good to know. Maybe a note in a README or on the repo for that fact would be great :)

@asieferlinger-enmacc is this enough #117? Feel free to comment

For anyone else trying to use a container image with lambda, I built the image from the docs with the included Dockerfile and was getting handler errors. After reviewing the AWS docs I added --provenance=false when building and that seems to have solved the issue.
