# Before opening a bug report...

...make sure you have consulted the `example-setup/README.md`.

## PLEASE, READ THIS!

***THIS VERSION OF THE DOCKER REGISTRY FRONTEND ONLY WORKS WITH THE DOCKER REGISTRY V2. THERE'S ALSO A LEGACY ["V1-DEPRECATED" BRANCH][v1branch] WHICH WORKS WITH THE OLD 0.9.1 DOCKER REGISTRY. THE ["V1-DEPRECATED" BRANCH][v1branch] IS VERY STABLE BUT WON'T RECEIVE SIGNIFICANT ATTENTION ANY LONGER BECAUSE THE OLD DOCKER REGISTRY WAS DECLARED DEPRECATED.***

***~~THE V2 SUPPORT FOR THE DOCKER REGISTRY FRONTEND IS STILL UNDER ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT.~~ THERE'S A FAIR CHANCE THAT A MAJORITY OF FEATURES IS NOT YET IMPLEMENTED. CHECK THE [ISSUES](https://github.com/kwk/docker-registry-frontend/issues) AND OPEN A BUG IF SOMETHING DOESN'T WORK RIGHT AWAY.***

***TO PULL A VERSION OF THIS BRANCH FROM THE DOCKER HUB, MAKE SURE YOU PULL AND RUN ```konradkleine/docker-registry-frontend:v2```***

# Features

For a list of all the features, please see the [Wiki][features]. Note, that currently the Wiki pages still refer to version 1 of this frontend.

# Development

To learn how to develop for the docker-registry-frontend, see
[here](develop/README.md).

# Usage

This application is available in the form of a Docker image that you can run as a container by executing this command:

    sudo docker run \
      -d \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_HOST=ENTER-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_PORT=ENTER-PORT-TO-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -p 8080:80 \
      konradkleine/docker-registry-frontend:v2

This command starts the container and forwards the container's private port `80` to your host's port `8080`. Make sure you specify the correct url to your registry.

When the application runs you can open your browser and navigate to [http://localhost:8080][1].

## Docker registry using SSL encryption

If the Docker registry is only reachable via HTTPs (e.g. if it sits behind a proxy) , you can run the following command:

    sudo docker run \
      -d \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_HOST=ENTER-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_PORT=ENTER-PORT-TO-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_USE_SSL=1 \
      -p 8080:80 \
      konradkleine/docker-registry-frontend:v2

## SSL encryption

If you want to run the application with SSL enabled, you can do the following:

    sudo docker run \
      -d \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_HOST=ENTER-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_PORT=ENTER-PORT-TO-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -e ENV_USE_SSL=yes \
      -v $PWD/server.crt:/etc/apache2/server.crt:ro \
      -v $PWD/server.key:/etc/apache2/server.key:ro \
      -p 443:443 \
      konradkleine/docker-registry-frontend:v2

Note that the application still serves the port `80` but it is simply not exposed ;). Enable it at your own will. When the application runs with SSL you can open your browser and navigate to [https://localhost][2].

## Use the application as the registry

If you are running the Docker registry on the same host as the application but only accessible to the application (eg. listening on `127.0.0.1`) then you can use the application as the registry itself.

Normally this would then give bad advice on how to access a tag:

    docker pull localhost:5000/yourname/imagename:latest

We can override what hostname and port to put here:

    sudo docker run \
     -d \
     -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_HOST=localhost \
     -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_PORT=5000 \
     -e ENV_REGISTRY_PROXY_FQDN=ENTER-YOUR-APPLICATION-HOST-HERE \
     -e ENV_REGISTRY_PROXY_PORT=ENTER-PORT-TO-YOUR-APPLICATION-HOST-HERE \
     -e ENV_USE_SSL=yes \
     -v $PWD/server.crt:/etc/apache2/server.crt:ro \
     -v $PWD/server.key:/etc/apache2/server.key:ro \
     -p 443:443 \
     konradkleine/docker-registry-frontend:v2

A value of `80` or `443` for `ENV_REGISTRY_PROXY_PORT` will not actually be shown as Docker will check `443` and then `80` by default.

## Kerberos authentication

If you want to use Kerberos to protect access to the registry frontend, you can
do the following:

    sudo docker run \
      -d \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_HOST=ENTER-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_PORT=ENTER-PORT-TO-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -e ENV_AUTH_USE_KERBEROS=yes \
      -e ENV_AUTH_NAME="Kerberos login" \
      -e ENV_AUTH_KRB5_KEYTAB=/etc/apache2/krb5.keytab \
      -v $PWD/krb5.keytab:/etc/apache2/krb5.keytab:ro \
      -e ENV_AUTH_KRB_REALMS="ENTER.YOUR.REALMS.HERE" \
      -e ENV_AUTH_KRB_SERVICE_NAME=HTTP \
      -p 80:80 \
      konradkleine/docker-registry-frontend:v2

You can of course combine SSL and Kerberos.

# Browse mode

If you want to start applicaton with browse mode which means no repos/tags management feature in the UI, You can specify `ENV_MODE_BROWSE_ONLY` flag as follows:

    sudo docker run \
      -d \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_HOST=ENTER-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -e ENV_DOCKER_REGISTRY_PORT=ENTER-PORT-TO-YOUR-REGISTRY-HOST-HERE \
      -e ENV_MODE_BROWSE_ONLY=true \
      -p 8080:80 \
      konradkleine/docker-registry-frontend:v2

You can set `true` or `false` to this flag.

**NOTE** For now `ENV_MODE_BROWSE_ONLY` will be overwritten to `true`.

# Default repositories per page

By default 20 repositories will be listed per page. To adjust this number, to
let's say 50 pass `-e ENV_DEFAULT_REPOSITORIES_PER_PAGE=50` to your `docker run`
command.

# Default tags per page

By default 10 tags will be listed per page. To adjust this number, to
let's say 5 pass `-e ENV_DEFAULT_TAGS_PER_PAGE=5` to your `docker run`
command. Note that providing a big number will result in a heavy load on browsers.

# Contributions are welcome!

If you like the application, I invite you to contribute and report bugs or feature request on the project's github page: [https://github.com/kwk/docker-registry-frontend][3].
To learn how to develop for the docker-registry-frontend, see [here](develop/README.md).

Thank you for your interest!
