What Docker Registry is?

Docker Registry is a stateless, highly scalable server side application that stores and lets you distribute Docker images. The Registry is open-source, under the permissive Apache license.

Why use it

You should use the Registry if you want to:

  • tightly control where your images are being stored
  • fully own your images distribution pipeline
  • integrate image storage and distribution tightly into your in-house development workflow

Install Docker Registry and WEB UI

Install Docker Registry

Run under command:

docker run -d -p 5000:5000 --restart=always --name registry-srv registry:2

Explain:

  • registry-srv ->  container name
  • -p 5000:5000 -> map port 5000 of host and container
  • –restart=always -> alway start container
  • registry:2 ->  image name

Install  Web UI for Registry

Make config file:

mkdir -p /opt/conf

cd  /opt/conf

nano config.yml

File content:

registry:
   # Docker registry url
   url: http://registry-srv:5000/v2
   # Docker registry fqdn
   name: localhost:5000
   # To allow image delete, should be false
   readonly: false
   auth:
   # Disable authentication
   enabled: false

Explain:

  • readonly: false -> can delete image
  • enabled: false -> Disable authentication

Install Web UI for Registry :

docker run -it -p 8080:8080 --restart=always --name registry-web --link registry-srv -v $(pwd)/config.yml:/conf/config.yml:ro hyper/docker-registry-web

Explain:

  • registry-web -> container name
  • -p 8080:8080 -> map port 8080 of host and container
  • –restart=always -> alway start container
  • hyper/docker-registry-web -> image name

Access http://IP:8080

How to Fix?

  • For docker-io edit file /etc/docker/daemon.json and add { “insecure-registries”:[“192.168.1.93:5000”] }
  • For docker ce: edit file /usr/lib/systemd/system/docker.service. Find ExecStart=/usr/bin/dockerd
    and replace ExecStart=/usr/bin/dockerd –insecure-registry 192.168.1.93:5000 -H tcp://0.0.0.0:2375 -H unix:///var/run/docker.sock
  • Restart service by command: systemctl daemon-reload and systemctl restart docker
