Incorrectly pushed docker image to dockerhub. How to delete? - docker

I was intending to push docker images to a private repo in azure.
However, I was logged in my to Dockerhub account when I carelessly pushed the image with tagname in azure repo format (e.g. myprivaterepo.azurecr.io/myfolder/myimage:0.0.4).
How do I delete this image?
When I login to another PC, and login to dockerhub, I can pull this exact version from the command line.
My Dockerhub web page only allows me to view repositories under my Dockerhub account.
"myimage" does not appear inside my Dockerhub Repositories list.
I also can't view other repositories inside Dockerhub. Please help! Thanks!

Go to repository section of your docker hub account home page
Check if image is available
If image available go inside it and select from left checkbox and delete the image
If image is not available , then mostly it is only in you local system , you can prune the images from your local system using: docker image prune command or directly remove image using: docker rmi

Docker image list doesn't show images on private registry

We have a private harbor registry that's insecure. We use docker client on a centos7 VM to push /pull images. We lost the docker client centos7 VM so have installed a new one. The issue I see is I log into the registry but when I do "docker image list" or "docker images" it doesn't show the images previously loaded. I'm not sure why?
[udmuser1#vtc-spk-auto10 ~]$ docker image list
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
If I do a docker load -i image on the new linux VM then docker push I do see the image when doing "docker image list" on the registry.
[udmuser1#vtc-spk-auto10 ~]$ docker image list
REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE
harbor01.ims.net/library/f5-fluentd v1.4.2 b96d9e18a71c 9 months ago 495 MB
I'm unclear why I don't see the images that were loaded by the previous linux VM.
Thanks for any input on this.

Your local Docker client would show you images that are part of its docker daemon in other words the images present on your client. You would need to setup synchronization if you want similar images on both the ends.
The container Registry is a place where you push/pull images to and from.
Your local Docker Client contains only the images that fulfil the criteria:
The image was pulled from a registry
The image was build (on that machine)
The container images you are not synchronized with your registry, you need to explicitly push and pull those images.
Your private repository and local machine are two different things. You can't get to the images in your private repository if you lose access to it.
To list all image repositories that contain at least one tagged image, run this curl command:
curl https://registry.io/v2/_catalog
{"repositories":["alpine","postgres"]}
If there are image repositories in a registry that don't possess a single tag, and instead only possess digests e.g. ubuntu#sha256:ac13c5d2, those will be omitted from the output. If a registry contained ubuntu#sha256:ac13c5d2, alpine:latest, and postgres:15.1, Output from /v2/_catalog would read as {"repositories":["alpine","postgres"]}.
Images can be obtained in a more granular and complete method through use of:
https://registry.io/v2/{image}/manifests/{digest} for images with digests
https://registry.io/v2/{image}/tags/list for images with tags

URL of docker hub image for usage in azure service fabric

I have created docker hub repo and also created and pushed a docker image of python application to the repo.
However, I cannot find the correct Url of the image that I have to provide to the other services which will use this image. for eg azure service fabric or Kubernetes.
How can I find the exact URL? Through PowerShell or through the browser...
You don't usually download images by url. Instead, you use the docker CLI with the repository and image name.
If it's a private repo, login first, by using docker login
more about login
Use docker pull {reponame/imagename:tag} to download an image to your machine.
more about pull
Replace {reponame} with the repository name.
Replace {imagename} with the name you used with docker push.
Replace {tag} with the tag you put on the image (or latest).
For example, I use this line to get my docker hub image:
docker pull loekd/nanoserver:2.0

Docker: Push data container onto Docker Hub

I am really new at this Docker stuff, and even newer at Docker Hub, so please bear with me …
I have created a data container to use with my docker image (specifically, a data container to store data for a running mssql-server-lnux image). I know where it is on my local system.
I have a newly created account on Docker Hub and I think I want to push the data container on the hub. I say I think because I’m not sure that it’s the right way to go about it: I want to be able to use the data container from different machines.
If what I have said so far is in the right direction, then how do I push the docker image to the Hub, and how do I then access it later?
You can't push containers, only images, the distinction is important.
Image is akin to a class of your container, and container is essentially an instance of your image.
So if you want to push to share your database then it's not a good idea - you would have to docker commit first and this would get ugly really fast.
But if you just want to start new instances of your mysql on different machines with fresh data containers (there will be no data initially) then go ahead and push the data container image.
Hope this helps.
Okay, here are few steps. Please check if this helps.
Tag your image first. Let's say your image name is 'myapplication' and your docker hub user name is 'dockerhubusername'.
$ docker tag myapplication dockerhubusername/myapplication
Login to docker hub using. Enter user name like 'dockerhubusername' and then password of docker hub account.
$ docker login
Now push command.
$ docker push dockerhubusername/myapplication
Now, login to your docker hub and check if you have image there. Remember, images are pushed to registry/repository like dockerhub not containers.
Assuming you have tagged your image,
Use docker login to configure your docker hub credentials and use docker push to push your image to dockerhub.
$ docker login
$ docker push dockerhub_username/mssql-server-lnux
If you have not yet tagged the image,
$ docker tag mssql-server-lnux dockerhub_username/mssql-server-lnux
To access your image later,
$ docker pull dockerhub_username/mssql-server-lnux

Docker show current registry

In docker, how can one display the current registry info you are currently logged in? I installed docker, if I now do docker push, where does it send my images?
I spend over 30min searching this info from Google and docker docs, and couldn't find it, so I think it deserves its own question.
There's no concept of a "current" registry - full image tags always contain the registry address, but if no registry is specified then the Docker Hub is used as the default.
So docker push user/app pushes to Docker Hub. If you want to push it to a local registry you need to explicitly tag it with the registry address:
docker tag user/app localhost:5000/user/app
docker push localhost:5000/user/app
If your local registry is secured, you need to run docker login localhost:5000 but that does not change the default registry. If you push or pull images without a registry address in the tag, Docker will always use the Hub.
This issue explains the rationale.
The way docker images work is not the most obvious but it is easy to explain.
The location where your images will be sent to must be define in the image name.
When you commit an image you must name it [registry-IP]:[registry-port]/[imagepath]/[image-name]
If you already have the image created and you want to send it to the local registry you must tagged it including the registry path before you push it:
docker tag [image-name] [registry-IP]:[registry-port]/[image-name]
docker push [registry-IP]:[registry-port]/[image-name]

Difference between Docker registry and repository

I'm confused as to the difference between docker registries and repositories. It seems like the Docker documentation uses the two words interchangeably. Also, repositories are sometimes referred to as images, such as this from their docs:
In order to push a repository to its registry, you need to have named
an image or committed your container to a named image as we saw here.
Now you can push this repository to the registry designated by its
name or tag.
How can you push a repository to a registry? Aren't you pushing the image to the repository?
Docker registry is a service that is storing your docker images.
Docker registry could be hosted by a third party, as public or private registry, like one of the following registries:
Docker Hub,
Quay,
Google Container Registry,
AWS Container Registry
or you can host the docker registry by yourself
(see https://docs.docker.com/ee/dtr/ for more details).
Docker repository is a collection of different docker images with same name, that have different tags. Tag is alphanumeric identifier of the image within a repository.
For example see https://hub.docker.com/r/library/python/tags/. There are many different tags for the official python image, these tags are all members of the official python repository on the Docker Hub. Docker Hub is a Docker Registry hosted by Docker.
To find out more read:
https://docs.docker.com/registry/
https://github.com/docker/distribution
From the book Using Docker, Developing and deploying Software with Containers
Registries, Repositories, Images, and Tags
There is a hierarchical system for storing images.
The following terminology is used:
Registry
A service responsible for hosting and distributing images. The default registry is the Docker Hub.
Repository
A collection of related images (usually providing different versions of the same application or service).
Tag
An alphanumeric identifier attached to images within a repository (e.g., 14.04 or stable ).
So the command docker pull amouat/revealjs:latest will download the image tagged latest within the amouat/revealjs repository from the Docker Hub registry.
Complementing the information:
You usually push a repository to a registry (and all images that are part of it). But you can push a single image to a registry. In all cases, you use docker push.
An image has a 12-hex-digit Image ID, but is also identified by: namespace/repo-name:tag
The image full name can be optionally prefixed by the registry host name and port: myregistryhost:5000/namespace/repo-name:tag
A common naming convention is to use your registry user-name as what I called "namespace".
A docker repository is a cute combination of registry and image.
docker tag foo <registry>/<image>:<tag>
is the same as
docker tag foo <repository>:<tag>
Docker Registry is a service, which you can either host yourself (Trusted and Private) or you can let docker hub be the host for this service. Usually, if your software is commercial, you will have hosted this as a "Private and Trusted" registry. For Java Developers, this is somewhat analogous to Maven Artifactory setup.
Docker Repository is a set of "Tagged" images. An example is that you might have tagged 5 of ubuntu:latest images:
a) Nano editor (image1_tag:v1)
b) A specific software 1 (image1_tag:v2)
c) Sudo (image1_tag:v3)
d) apache http daemon (image1_tag:v4)
e) tomcat (image1_tag:v5)
You can use docker push command to push each of the above images to your repository. As long as the repository names match, they will be pushed successfully, and appear under your chosen repository and correctly tagged.
Now, your question is, "So where is this repository hosted/who is managing the service"? That is where Docker Registry comes into picture. By default you will get a docker hub registry (Open Source) which you can use to keep your private/public repository. So without any modification, your images will be pushed to your private repository in docker hub. An example output when you pushing your image tags are the following:
docker#my-docker-vm:/$ docker push mydockerhub/my-helloworld-repo:my_tag
The push refers to repository [docker.io/mydockerhub/my-helloworld-repo]
bf41e934d39d: Pushed
70d93396f87f: Pushed
6ec525dfd060: Pushed
705419d10b13: Pushed
a4aaef726d02: Pushed
04964fddc946: Pushed
latest: digest: sha256:eb93c92351bce785aa3ec0de489cfeeaafd55b7d90adf95ecea02629b376e577 size: 1571
docker#my-docker-vm:/$
And if you type immediately docker images --digests -a you can confirm that your pushed image tags are now showing new signature against the private repository managed by docker hub registry.
A Docker image registry is the place to store all your Docker images. The image registry allows you to push and pull the container images as needed.
Registries can be private or public. When the registry is public, the images are shared with the whole world whereas in the private registry the images are shared only amongst the members of an enterprise or a team.
A registry makes it possible for the Docker daemon to easily pull and run your Docker images.
Docker Hub and other third party repository hosting services are called “registries”. A registry stores a collection of repositories.
As a registry can have many repositories and a repository can have many different versions of the same image which are individually versioned with tags.
The confusion starts with this definition of a tag: "An alphanumeric identifier attached to images in a repository"
I'd rather call that alphanumeric identifier that you append with a ':' a tag-suffix for now. When somebody says "'latest' is the default tag", then this kind of tag-suffix is meant.
In reality, the :latest' suffix is technically part of the tag. The entire name is a tag. All these are tags (possibly referring to the same image):
myimagename
myimagename:latest
username/theirimagename:1.0
myrepo:5000/username/imagename:1.0
(I say imagename here, just to illustrate the other main source of confusion. That's the repositoryname, of course. Sorry.)
Examples:
a) When you want to name your image while building, you use docker build -t thisname ... -- that is -t for tag, (not -n for name).
b) When you want to push that image to a registry, you need to have the full URL (starting with registryname and ending with a tag-suffix) as a tag:
docker tag thisname mylocalregistry:5000/username/repoimagething:1.0
Now you push the image known as thisname by saying:
docker push mylocalregistry:5000/username/repoimagething:1.0
Naming things is hard.
Alas! A repository is not a "container" (aaargh...) where you put things in, that is what muggles think...
