How to push a docker image to a private repository

Question

I have a docker image tagged as me/my-image, and I have a private repo on the dockerhub named me-private.
When I push my me/my-image

Answer 1

First login your private repository.

> docker login [OPTIONS] [SERVER]

[OPTIONS]: 
-u username 
-p password

eg:

> docker login localhost:8080

And then tag your image for your private repository

> docker tag SOURCE_IMAGE[:TAG] TARGET_IMAGE[:TAG]

eg:

> docker tag myApp:v1 localhost:8080/myname/myApp:v1

Finally push your taged images to your private repository

>docker push [OPTIONS] NAME[:TAG]

eg:

> docker push localhost:8080/myname/myApp:v1

Reference

• docker command reference

Answer 2

First go to your Docker Hub account and make the repo. Here is a screenshot of my Docker Hub account:

From the pic, you can see my repo is “chuangg”

Now go into the repo and make it private by clicking on your image’s name. So for me, I clicked on “chuangg/gene_commited_image”, then I went to Settings -> Make Private. Then I followed the on screen instructions

HOW TO UPLOAD YOUR DOCKER IMAGE ONTO DOCKER HUB

Method #1= Pushing your image through the command line (cli)

1) docker commit <container ID> <repo name>/<Name you want to give the image>

Yes, I think it has to be the container ID. It probably cannot be the image ID.

For example= docker commit 99e078826312 chuangg/gene_commited_image

2) docker run -it chaung/gene_commited_image

3) docker login --username=<user username> --password=<user password>

For example= docker login --username=chuangg --email=gc.genechaung@gmail.com

Yes, you have to login first. Logout using “docker logout”

4) docker push chuangg/gene_commited_image

Method #2= Pushing your image using pom.xml and command line.

Note, I used a Maven Profile called “build-docker”. If you don’t want to use a profile, just remove the <profiles>, <profile>, and <id>build-docker</id> elements.

Inside the parent pom.xml:

<profiles>
        <profile>
            <id>build-docker</id>
            <build>
                <plugins>

                            <images>
                                <image>
                                    <name>chuangg/gene_project</name>
                                    <alias>${docker.container.name}</alias>
                                    <!-- Configure build settings -->

Docker Terminal Command to deploy the Docker Image (from the directory where your pom.xml is located)= mvn clean deploy -Pbuild-docker docker:push

Note, the difference between Method #2 and #3 is that Method #3 has an extra <execution> for the deployment.

Method #3= Using Maven to automatically deploy to Docker Hub

Add this stuff to your parent pom.xml:

    <distributionManagement>
        <repository>
            <id>gene</id>
            <name>chuangg</name>

Go to C:\Users\Gene.docker\ directory and add this to your config.json file:

Now in your Docker Quickstart Terminal type= mvn clean install -Pbuild-docker

For those of you not using Maven Profiles, just type mvn clean install

Common Error #1:

Solution for Error #1= Do not sync the <execution> with maven deploy phase because then maven tries to deploy the image 2x and puts a timestamp on the jar. That’s why I used <phase>install</phase>.

Answer 3

If you docker registry is private and self hosted you should do the following :

docker login <REGISTRY_HOST>:<REGISTRY_PORT>
docker tag <IMAGE_ID> <REGISTRY_HOST>:<REGISTRY_PORT>/<APPNAME>:<APPVERSION>
docker push <REGISTRY_HOST>:<REGISTRY_PORT>/<APPNAME>:<APPVERSION>

Example :

docker login repo.company.com:3456
docker tag 19fcc4aa71ba repo.company.com:3456/myapp:0.1
docker push repo.company.com:3456/myapp:0.1
