Provides an OCI Distribution Spec-compliant(ish) registry that proxies all requests to a dockerd process on the same system.
Mainly for use with k3d. I got frustrated with k3d running into rate limits pulling images from docker.io everytime, since it can't use the local Docker image cache directly. k3d-registry-dockerd can be used by k3d and will transparently use your local Docker image cache, preventing rate limiting issues and potentially speeding up your Pod deploys.
Run k3d like this:
configfile=$(mktemp)
cat << HERE > "$configfile"
apiVersion: k3d.io/v1alpha5
kind: Simple
registries:
create:
image: ligfx/k3d-registry-dockerd:v0.6
proxy:
remoteURL: "*"
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
HERE
k3d cluster create mytest --config "$configfile"Or, to use a separate but-still-k3d-managed registry:
k3d registry create -i ligfx/k3d-registry-dockerd:v0.6 \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
myregistry
configfile=$(mktemp)
cat << HERE > "$configfile"
apiVersion: k3d.io/v1alpha5
kind: Simple
registries:
use:
- k3d-myregistry:5000
config: |
mirrors:
"*":
endpoint:
- "http://k3d-myregistry:5000"
HERE
k3d cluster create mytest --config "$configfile"
