May 1, 2025May 2025: Implemented Buildah support for container image building in the CLI of janus-idp/backstage-plugins, enabling Buildah-based workflows. Key changes include introducing a --container-tool option, deprecating the --use-docker flag, and adding input validation to ensure valid container tool selections. This work reduces Docker daemon dependency, improves CI/CD flexibility, and enhances the CLI UX for container workflows. The change was delivered in a focused commit implementing Buildah support (cd7aa9e567d19994d61194f74c2c17f2284e380a).
