Add a 1 tag to always point to the latest 1.Y.Z version

The idea is:

I would like the n8nio/n8n Docker image to include a 1 tag that always points to the latest available 1.Y.Z version.

My use case:

Currently, there is no way to pull the latest 1.Y.Z version automatically. The latest tag always points to the newest major release, including v2 and beyond. This makes it difficult to ensure that we are always running the most up-to-date version of n8n while staying within major version 1.

Adding a 1 tag (similar to node:18, python:3.10, etc.) would allow users to stay on version 1 without having to manually update their docker-compose.yml or deployment scripts every time a minor update is released.

I think it would be beneficial to add this because:

This would make it easier for teams that want to stay on v1 but still receive bug fixes and security updates.

Proposed solution

  • Maintain a 1 tag that always points to the latest stable 1.Y.Z release.
  • Ensure this tag is updated whenever a new 1.Y.Z version is published.

Would this be possible? Thanks for considering it! :blush:
