Docker Hub repositories allow you share container images with your team,
|
|
customers, or the Docker community at large.
|
|
|
|
Docker images are pushed to Docker Hub through the [`docker push`](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/push/)
|
|
command. A single Docker Hub repository can hold many Docker images (stored as
|
|
**tags**).
|
|
|
|
## Creating repositories
|
|
|
|
To create a repository, sign into Docker Hub, click on **Repositories** then
|
|
**Create Repository**:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
When creating a new repository:
|
|
|
|
* You can choose to put it in your Docker ID namespace, or in any
|
|
[organization](orgs.md) where you are an [_owner_](orgs.md#the-owners-team).
|
|
* The repository name needs to be unique in that namespace, can be two
|
|
to 255 characters, and can only contain lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens (`-`),
|
|
and underscores (`_`).
|
|
* The description can be up to 100 characters and is used in the search result.
|
|
* You can link a GitHub or Bitbucket account now, or choose to do it later in
|
|
the repository settings.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
After you hit the **Create** button, you can start using `docker push` to push
|
|
images to this repository.
|
|
|
|
## Pushing a Docker container image to Docker Hub
|
|
|
|
To push an image to Docker Hub, you must first name your local image using your
|
|
Docker Hub username and the repository name that you created through Docker Hub
|
|
on the web.
|
|
|
|
You can add multiple images to a repository by adding a specific `:<tag>` to
|
|
them (for example `docs/base:testing`). If it's not specified, the tag defaults
|
|
to `latest`.
|
|
|
|
Name your local images using one of these methods:
|
|
|
|
* When you build them, using `docker build -t <hub-user>/<repo-name>[:<tag>]`
|
|
* By re-tagging an existing local image `docker tag <existing-image> <hub-user>/<repo-name>[:<tag>]`
|
|
* By using `docker commit <existing-container> <hub-user>/<repo-name>[:<tag>]`
|
|
to commit changes
|
|
|
|
Now you can push this repository to the registry designated by its name or tag.
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ docker push <hub-user>/<repo-name>:<tag>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The image is then uploaded and available for use by your teammates and/or
|
|
the community.
|
|
|
|
## Private repositories
|
|
|
|
Private repositories let you keep container images private, either to your
|
|
own account or within an organization or team.
|
|
|
|
To create a private repository, select **Private** when creating a repository:
|
|
|
|
{: style="max-width: 60%"}
|
|
|
|
You can also make an existing repository private by going to its **Settings** tab:
|
|
|
|
{: style="max-width: 60%"}
|
|
|
|
You get one private repository for free with your Docker Hub user account (not
|
|
usable for organizations you're a member of). If you need more private
|
|
repositories for your user account, upgrade your Docker Hub plan from your
|
|
[Billing Information](https://hub.docker.com/billing/plan) page.
|
|
|
|
Once the private repository is created, you can `push` and `pull` images to and
|
|
from it using Docker.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**: You need to be signed in and have access to work with a
|
|
> private repository.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**: Private repositories are not currently available to search through
|
|
> the top-level search or `docker search`.
|
|
|
|
You can designate collaborators and manage their access to a private
|
|
repository from that repository's **Settings** page. You can also toggle the
|
|
repository's status between public and private, if you have an available
|
|
repository slot open. Otherwise, you can upgrade your
|
|
[Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/account/billing-plans/) plan.
|
|
|
|
## Collaborators and their role
|
|
|
|
A collaborator is someone you want to give access to a private repository. Once
|
|
designated, they can `push` and `pull` to your repositories. They are not
|
|
allowed to perform any administrative tasks such as deleting the repository or
|
|
changing its status from private to public.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> A collaborator cannot add other collaborators. Only the owner of
|
|
> the repository has administrative access.
|
|
|
|
You can also assign more granular collaborator rights ("Read", "Write", or
|
|
"Admin") on Docker Hub by using organizations and teams. For more information
|
|
see the [organizations documentation](orgs.md).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Viewing repository tags
|
|
|
|
Docker Hub's individual repositories view shows you the available tags and the
|
|
size of the associated image. Go to the **Repositories** view and click on a
|
|
repository to see its tags.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Image sizes are the cumulative space taken up by the image and all its parent
|
|
images. This is also the disk space used by the contents of the `.tar` file
|
|
created when you `docker save` an image.
|
|
|
|
To view individual tags, click on the **Tags** tab.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Select a tag's digest to view details.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Searching for Repositories
|
|
|
|
You can search the [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com) registry through its
|
|
search interface or by using the command line interface. Searching can find
|
|
images by image name, username, or description:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ docker search centos
|
|
|
|
NAME DESCRIPTION STARS OFFICIAL AUTOMATED
|
|
centos The official build of CentOS. 1034 [OK]
|
|
ansible/centos7-ansible Ansible on Centos7 43 [OK]
|
|
tutum/centos Centos image with SSH access. For the root... 13 [OK]
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There you can see two example results: `centos` and `ansible/centos7-ansible`.
|
|
The second result shows that it comes from the public repository of a user,
|
|
named `ansible/`, while the first result, `centos`, doesn't explicitly list a
|
|
repository which means that it comes from the top-level namespace for
|
|
[official images](official_images.md). The `/` character separates
|
|
a user's repository from the image name.
|
|
|
|
Once you've found the image you want, you can download it with `docker pull <imagename>`:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ docker pull centos
|
|
|
|
latest: Pulling from centos
|
|
6941bfcbbfca: Pull complete
|
|
41459f052977: Pull complete
|
|
fd44297e2ddb: Already exists
|
|
centos:latest: The image you are pulling has been verified. Important: image verification is a tech preview feature and should not be relied on to provide security.
|
|
Digest: sha256:d601d3b928eb2954653c59e65862aabb31edefa868bd5148a41fa45004c12288
|
|
Status: Downloaded newer image for centos:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You now have an image from which you can run containers.
|
|
|
|
## Starring Repositories
|
|
|
|
Your repositories can be starred and you can star repositories in return. Stars
|
|
are a way to show that you like a repository. They are also an easy way of
|
|
bookmarking your favorites.
|
|
|
|
## Service accounts
|
|
|
|
A service account is a Docker ID used by a bot for automating the build pipeline
|
|
for containerized applications. Service accounts are typically used in automated
|
|
workflows, and do not share Docker IDs with the members in the Team plan.
|
|
|
|
To create a new service account for your Team account:
|
|
|
|
1. Create a new Docker ID.
|
|
2. Create a [team](orgs.md#create-a-team) in your organization and grant it read-only access to your private repositories.
|
|
3. Add the new Docker ID to your [organization](orgs.md#working-with-organizations).
|
|
4. Add the new Docker ID to the [team](orgs.md#add-a-member-to-a-team) you created earlier.
|
|
5. Create a new [personal access token (PAT)](/access-tokens.md) from the user account and use it for CI.
|
|
|
|
To create a new service account for your Pro account:
|
|
|
|
1. Create a new Docker ID.
|
|
2. Click **Repositories** from the main menu.
|
|
3. Select a repository from the list and go to the **Collaborators** tab.
|
|
4. Add the new Docker ID as a collaborator.
|
|
5. Create a new [personal access token (PAT)](/access-tokens.md) from the user account and use it for CI.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> If you want a read-only PAT just for your open source repos, or to access official images and other public images, you do not have to grant any access permissions to the new Docker ID.
