Summary
Inquiring about the backward compatibility of Docker images with Airbyte 1.0
Question
Hi,
I have several docker image working fine with older version of Airbyte(Before 1.0). When I add them to Airbyte 1.0, it can’t be added in the UI and hangs. Is Airbyte 1.0 backward compatible?
Thanks!

I haven’t noticed any issues with custom connectors I created 5 months ago. They work just fine on Airbyte 1.0.0. Maybe you need to debug your setup.
follow-up question, if i will push the image to artifact registry
what will be the difference
how did you add the image to airbyte 1.0? did you store the image to a repository then just add them in the ui of airbye 1.0?
it depends on deployment,
for EKS + helm chart, I store Docker image in ECR
for abctl, I load Docker image into kind cluster
in both cases I go to Settings → Sources (or Destinations) → New connector → Add a new Docker connector
the docker image is at this directory…airbyte/connector-name
this is local installation
you have to build Docker image for your connector if you are using custom one, then load into kind cluster
https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/using-custom-connectors/#loading-connector-docker-containers-into-kind
in your case:
kind load docker-image airbyte/source-dot-fmcsa:dev -n airbyte-abctl
after that you can configure connector in UI
i don’t know that new step
