Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When using internal CD pipelines to deploy promtail
to constrained systems with no unzip
available, the workflow for deploying the promtail
binary (preferably directly, without intermediate files) is needlessly and significantly complicated by having the archives in a "non-native" format.
Describe the solution you'd like
Use the standard archive formats for respective OS targets (i.e. tar.gz
(tgz
) on linux).
As a bonus the binaries (in the archives) should have the x
bit set, so be mode 0550
or 0750
.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Re-archiving on deployment host on-the-fly, but this is impractical since there is no simple one-line-pipe/one-step alternative for zip
to tgz
conversion without further dependecies.
