Type of Enhancement

Server Backend

Describe the Feature/Enhancement

Add version tagging for docker releases, so users can choose to pull the latest minor version within a major version (e.g., 2.17). The Paperless-ngx project does this as seen here: Paperless-ngx Version Tags

Why would this be helpful?

Allows for more flexible version management and easier updates.

Future Implementation (Screenshot)

Example of Dockerfile or versioning script

VERSION=2.17.2
TAGS=2.17.2 2.17

Updated build script to include both tags

docker build -t myproject:$VERSION -t myproject:$TAGS .

Example of changes in documentation

To pull a specific minor version, use the tag format 2.17.2.
To pull the latest minor version within a major version, use the tag format 2.17.

Audiobookshelf Server Version

2.17.2
