6 buildah-push - Push an image, manifest list or image index from local
7 storage to elsewhere.
8
9
11 buildah push [options] image [destination]
12
13
15 Pushes an image from local storage to a specified destination, decom‐
16 pressing and recompessing layers as needed.
17
18
20 Image stored in local container/storage
21
22
24 DESTINATION is the location the container image is pushed to. It sup‐
25 ports all transports from containers-transports(5) (see examples be‐
26 low). If no transport is specified, the docker (i.e., container reg‐
27 istry) transport is used.
28
29
31 --all
32
33
34 If specified image is a manifest list or image index, push the images
35 in addition to the list or index itself.
36
37
38 --authfile path
39
40
41 Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_\RUNTIME_DIR}/con‐
42 tainers/auth.json. If XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set, the default is
43 /run/containers/$UID/auth.json. This file is created using buildah lo‐
44 gin.
45
46
47 If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/con‐
48 fig.json is checked, which is set using docker login.
49
50
51 Note: You can also override the default path of the authentication file
52 by setting the REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE environment variable. export REG‐
53 ISTRY_AUTH_FILE=path
54
55
56 --cert-dir path
57
58
59 Use certificates at path (*.crt, *.cert, *.key) to connect to the reg‐
60 istry. The default certificates directory is /etc/containers/certs.d.
61
62
63 --compression-format format
64
65
66 Specifies the compression format to use. Supported values are: gzip,
67 zstd and zstd:chunked.
68
69
70 --compression-level level
71
72
73 Specify the compression level used with the compression.
74
75
76 Specifies the compression level to use. The value is specific to the
77 compression algorithm used, e.g. for zstd the accepted values are in
78 the range 1-20 (inclusive), while for gzip it is 1-9 (inclusive).
79
80
81 --creds creds
82
83
84 The [username[:password]] to use to authenticate with the registry if
85 required. If one or both values are not supplied, a command line
86 prompt will appear and the value can be entered. The password is en‐
87 tered without echo.
88
89
90 --digestfile Digestfile
91
92
93 After copying the image, write the digest of the resulting image to the
94 file.
95
96
97 --disable-compression, -D
98
99
100 Don't compress copies of filesystem layers which will be pushed.
101
102
103 --encrypt-layer layer(s)
104
105
106 Layer(s) to encrypt: 0-indexed layer indices with support for negative
107 indexing (e.g. 0 is the first layer, -1 is the last layer). If not de‐
108 fined, will encrypt all layers if encryption-key flag is specified.
109
110
111 --encryption-key key
112
113
114 The [protocol:keyfile] specifies the encryption protocol, which can be
115 JWE (RFC7516), PGP (RFC4880), and PKCS7 (RFC2315) and the key material
116 required for image encryption. For instance, jwe:/path/to/key.pem or
117 pgp:admin@example.com or pkcs7:/path/to/x509-file.
118
119
120 --force-compression
121
122
123 If set, push uses the specified compression algorithm even if the des‐
124 tination contains a differently-compressed variant already. Defaults
125 to true if --compression-format is explicitly specified on the command-
126 line, false otherwise.
127
128
129 --format, -f
130
131
132 Manifest Type (oci, v2s2, or v2s1) to use when pushing an image. (de‐
133 fault is manifest type of the source image, with fallbacks)
134
135
136 --quiet, -q
137
138
139 When writing the output image, suppress progress output.
140
141
142 --remove-signatures
143
144
145 Don't copy signatures when pushing images.
146
147
148 --retry attempts
149
150
151 Number of times to retry in case of failure when performing push of im‐
152 ages to registry.
153
154
155 Defaults to 3.
156
157
158 --retry-delay duration
159
160
161 Duration of delay between retry attempts in case of failure when per‐
162 forming push of images to registry.
163
164
165 Defaults to 2s.
166
167
168 --rm
169
170
171 When pushing a manifest list or image index, delete them from local
172 storage if pushing succeeds.
173
174
175 --sign-by fingerprint
176
177
178 Sign the pushed image using the GPG key that matches the specified fin‐
179 gerprint.
180
181
182 --tls-verify bool-value
183
184
185 Require HTTPS and verification of certificates when talking to con‐
186 tainer registries (defaults to true). TLS verification cannot be used
187 when talking to an insecure registry.
188
189
191 This example pushes the image specified by the imageID to a local di‐
192 rectory in docker format.
193
194
195 # buildah push imageID dir:/path/to/image
196
197
198 This example pushes the image specified by the imageID to a local di‐
199 rectory in oci format.
200
201
202 # buildah push imageID oci:/path/to/layout:image:tag
203
204
205 This example pushes the image specified by the imageID to a tar archive
206 in oci format.
207
208
209 # buildah push imageID oci-archive:/path/to/archive:image:tag
210
211
212 This example pushes the image specified by the imageID to a container
213 registry named registry.example.com.
214
215
216 # buildah push imageID docker://registry.example.com/repository:tag
217
218
219 This example pushes the image specified by the imageID to a container
220 registry named registry.example.com and saves the digest in the speci‐
221 fied digestfile.
222
223
224 # buildah push --digestfile=/tmp/mydigest imageID docker://registry.ex‐
225 ample.com/repository:tag
226
227
228 This example works like docker push, assuming registry.exam‐
229 ple.com/my_image is a local image.
230
231
232 # buildah push registry.example.com/my_image
233
234
235 This example pushes the image specified by the imageID to a private
236 container registry named registry.example.com with authentication from
237 /tmp/auths/myauths.json.
238
239
240 # buildah push --authfile /tmp/auths/myauths.json imageID docker://reg‐
241 istry.example.com/repository:tag
242
243
244 This example pushes the image specified by the imageID and puts it into
245 the local docker container store.
246
247
248 # buildah push imageID docker-daemon:image:tag
249
250
251 This example pushes the image specified by the imageID and puts it into
252 the registry on the localhost while turning off tls verification.
253 # buildah push --tls-verify=false imageID localhost:5000/my-imageID
254
255
256 This example pushes the image specified by the imageID and puts it into
257 the registry on the localhost using credentials and certificates for
258 authentication.
259 # buildah push --cert-dir ~/auth --tls-verify=true --creds=user‐
260 name:password imageID localhost:5000/my-imageID
261
262
264 BUILD_REGISTRY_SOURCES
265
266
267 BUILD_REGISTRY_SOURCES, if set, is treated as a JSON object which con‐
268 tains lists of registry names under the keys insecureRegistries,
269 blockedRegistries, and allowedRegistries.
270
271
272 When pushing an image to a registry, if the portion of the destination
273 image name that corresponds to a registry is compared to the items in
274 the blockedRegistries list, and if it matches any of them, the push at‐
275 tempt is denied. If there are registries in the allowedRegistries
276 list, and the portion of the name that corresponds to the registry is
277 not in the list, the push attempt is denied.
278
279
280 TMPDIR The TMPDIR environment variable allows the user to specify where
281 temporary files are stored while pulling and pushing images. Defaults
282 to '/var/tmp'.
283
284
286 registries.conf (/etc/containers/registries.conf)
287
288
289 registries.conf is the configuration file which specifies which con‐
290 tainer registries should be consulted when completing image names which
291 do not include a registry or domain portion.
292
293
294 policy.json (/etc/containers/policy.json)
295
296
297 Signature policy file. This defines the trust policy for container im‐
298 ages. Controls which container registries can be used for image, and
299 whether or not the tool should trust the images.
