The following environment variables are available to configure the Docker Scout
CLI commands, and the corresponding `docker/scout-cli` container image:
| Name | Format | Description |
| :-------------------------------------- | ------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_CACHE_FORMAT | String | Format of the local image cache; can be `oci` or `tar` (default: `oci`) |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_CACHE_DIR | String | Directory where the local SBOM cache is stored (default: `$HOME/.docker/scout`) |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_NO_CACHE | Boolean | When set to `true`, disables the use of local SBOM cache |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_OFFLINE | Boolean | Use [offline mode](#offline-mode) when indexing SBOM |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_REGISTRY_TOKEN | String | Token for authenticating to a registry when pulling images |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_REGISTRY_USER | String | Username for authenticating to a registry when pulling images |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_REGISTRY_PASSWORD | String | Password or personal access token for authenticating to a registry when pulling images |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_HUB_USER | String | Docker Hub username for authenticating to the Docker Scout backend |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_HUB_PASSWORD | String | Docker Hub password or personal access token for authenticating to the Docker Scout backend |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_NEW_VERSION_WARN | Boolean | Warn about new versions of the Docker Scout CLI |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_EXPERIMENTAL_WARN | Boolean | Warn about experimental features |
| DOCKER_SCOUT_EXPERIMENTAL_POLICY_OUTPUT | Boolean | Disable experimental output for policy evaluation |
## Offline mode
Under normal operation, Docker Scout cross-references external systems, such as
npm, NuGet, or proxy.golang.org, to retrieve additional information about
packages found in your image.
When `DOCKER_SCOUT_OFFLINE` is set to `true`, Docker Scout image analysis runs
in offline mode. Offline mode means Docker Scout doesn't make outbound requests
to external systems.
To use offline mode:
```console
$ export DOCKER_SCOUT_OFFLINE=true
```
