Docker Registry UI
===================

A web UI for easy private/local Docker V1 or V2 Registry integration.

Docker Registry UI is a mature, easy-to-use and fast web application for administering your Docker Registry through a sleek user interface. You can register one-to-many registries and then browse, search and delete images.

## Features

The application boasts the following features:

* View all images for all registries (one to many)

* Further info. page for images for inspection of config. etc

* Pull copy/paste shortcuts

* Delete images

* Search for images

* Containerized via [Docker](https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/atcol/docker-registry-ui/)

* Custom deployment context (e.g. /reg-ui)

* Read only mode for preventing registry configuration changes once running

* Stateless application

## Demo

This project is containerized. You can run with docker right now by simply running:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 atcol/docker-registry-ui

and browsing to localhost:8080/.

## Dependencies

You need to have a running instance of `docker registry` that has a **search backend enabled**! See [this issue](https://github.com/atc-/docker-registry-web/issues/65#issuecomment-68060219) for further information.

## Statelessness

The app' requires registry configuration which can be supplied once the app's running, or through container environment
variables:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -e REG1=http://dev:5000/v1/ -e REG2=http://prod/v1/ atcol/docker-registry-ui

which will run the application and automatically register two registries at the hosts `dev` and `prod` respectively,
both running API versions v1. You must provide URLs that include the API version.

**Note:** don't use `localhost` in registry URLs! The host needs to be visible from inside the container, so `-e REG1=http://localhost/...` won't work because localhost will resolve to the container's IP. If registry is running on the host, then remember to use its IP: `172.17.42.1`.

## Volumes

The webapp's configuration data is stored inside the container in a H2 database under `/var/lib/h2/`. You can hold this data on the host machine using the `-v` flag:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v /some/data/dir:/var/lib/h2 atcol/docker-registry-ui

which survives container restarts.

You could also use the data-container pattern using `--volumes-from`:

docker run -d -v /var/lib/h2 --name="registry_web_data" ubuntu

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 --volumes-from=registry_web_data atcol/docker-registry-ui

Now all data will be kept in the `registry_web_data` container.

## Custom Deployment Context

You can deploy this container in a custom context as such:

`docker run -d -p 80:8080 -it -e APP_CONTEXT=ui -e REG1=http://172.17.42.1:5000/v1/ atcol/docker-registry-ui`

will expose the container under `http://localhost/ui`.

## Read Only Mode

Using the container parameter `-e READ_ONLY=true` will enable read only mode, which prevents manipulation of the
registry configurations at runtime.

# Troubleshooting

## My registry can't be found/seen by docker registry web! Help!

If you're seeing error messages like `Connection to http://registry refused`, make sure you've configured the port and hostname correctly. **Do not** set the registry hostname to `localhost`, because the container will resolve this to itself (127.0.0.1). If the registry instance runs on the host machine (that which runs the container), then set the registry IP/hostname to `172.17.42.1`. Alternatively, you could use writable /etc/hosts as of Docker 1.2 and 'route' it that way.

## Registries behind HTTPS or `Ping failed: javax.net.ssl.SSLPeerUnverifiedException: peer not authenticated`
You need to register the CA with the container's keystore; see [this issue](https://github.com/atcol/docker-registry-ui/issues/108#issuecomment-74063947).
