Ubuntu Manpage: buildah-push - Push an image, manifest list or image index from local storage to

NAME

       buildah-push  -  Push  an  image,  manifest  list  or  image  index  from local storage to
       elsewhere.

SYNOPSIS

       buildah push [options] image [destination]

DESCRIPTION

       Pushes an  image  from  local  storage  to  a  specified  destination,  decompressing  and
       recompessing layers as needed.

imageID

       Image stored in local container/storage

DESTINATION

       DESTINATION  is  the location the container image is pushed to. It supports all transports
       from containers-transports(5) (see examples below). If  no  transport  is  specified,  the
       docker (i.e., container registry) transport is used.

OPTIONS

--all

If specified image is a manifest list or image index, push the images in addition to the
list or index itself.

--authfile path

Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_\RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json. If
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not set, the default is /run/containers/$UID/auth.json. This file is
created using buildah login.

If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which
is set using docker login.

Note: You can also override the default path of the authentication file by setting the
REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE environment variable. export REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE=path

--cert-dir path

Use certificates at path (*.crt, *.cert, *.key) to connect to the registry. The default
certificates directory is /etc/containers/certs.d.

--compression-format format

Specifies the compression format to use. Supported values are: gzip, zstd and
zstd:chunked.

--compression-level level

Specify the compression level used with the compression.

Specifies the compression level to use. The value is specific to the compression
algorithm used, e.g. for zstd the accepted values are in the range 1-20 (inclusive), while
for gzip it is 1-9 (inclusive).

--creds creds

The [username[:password]] to use to authenticate with the registry if required. If one or
both values are not supplied, a command line prompt will appear and the value can be
entered. The password is entered without echo.

--digestfile Digestfile

After copying the image, write the digest of the resulting image to the file.

--disable-compression, -D

Don't compress copies of filesystem layers which will be pushed.

--encrypt-layer layer(s)

Layer(s) to encrypt: 0-indexed layer indices with support for negative indexing (e.g. 0 is
the first layer, -1 is the last layer). If not defined, will encrypt all layers if
encryption-key flag is specified.

--encryption-key key

The [protocol:keyfile] specifies the encryption protocol, which can be JWE (RFC7516), PGP
(RFC4880), and PKCS7 (RFC2315) and the key material required for image encryption. For
instance, jwe:/path/to/key.pem or pgp:admin@example.com or pkcs7:/path/to/x509-file.

--format, -f

Manifest Type (oci, v2s2, or v2s1) to use when pushing an image. (default is manifest type
of the source image, with fallbacks)

--quiet, -q

When writing the output image, suppress progress output.

--remove-signatures

Don't copy signatures when pushing images.

--retry attempts

Number of times to retry in case of failure when performing push of images to registry.

Defaults to 3.

--retry-delay duration

Duration of delay between retry attempts in case of failure when performing push of images
to registry.

Defaults to 2s.

--rm

When pushing a manifest list or image index, delete them from local storage if pushing
succeeds.

--sign-by fingerprint

Sign the pushed image using the GPG key that matches the specified fingerprint.

--tls-verify bool-value

Require HTTPS and verification of certificates when talking to container registries
(defaults to true). TLS verification cannot be used when talking to an insecure registry.

EXAMPLE

       This example pushes the image specified by the imageID to  a  local  directory  in  docker
       format.

       # buildah push imageID dir:/path/to/image

       This example pushes the image specified by the imageID to a local directory in oci format.

       # buildah push imageID oci:/path/to/layout:image:tag

       This example pushes the image specified by the imageID to a tar archive in oci format.

       # buildah push imageID oci-archive:/path/to/archive:image:tag

       This  example  pushes  the  image  specified  by the imageID to a container registry named
       registry.example.com.

       # buildah push imageID docker://registry.example.com/repository:tag

       This example pushes the image specified by the  imageID  to  a  container  registry  named
       registry.example.com and saves the digest in the specified digestfile.

       #            buildah           push           --digestfile=/tmp/mydigest           imageID
       docker://registry.example.com/repository:tag

       This example works like docker push, assuming  registry.example.com/my_image  is  a  local
       image.

       # buildah push registry.example.com/my_image

       This  example  pushes  the  image specified by the imageID to a private container registry
       named registry.example.com with authentication from /tmp/auths/myauths.json.

       #       buildah       push        --authfile        /tmp/auths/myauths.json        imageID
       docker://registry.example.com/repository:tag

       This  example  pushes the image specified by the imageID and puts it into the local docker
       container store.

       # buildah push imageID docker-daemon:image:tag

       This example pushes the image specified by the imageID and puts it into  the  registry  on
       the localhost while turning off tls verification.
        # buildah push --tls-verify=false imageID localhost:5000/my-imageID

       This  example  pushes  the image specified by the imageID and puts it into the registry on
       the localhost using credentials and certificates for authentication.
        # buildah push  --cert-dir  ~/auth  --tls-verify=true  --creds=username:password  imageID
       localhost:5000/my-imageID

ENVIRONMENT

       BUILD_REGISTRY_SOURCES

       BUILD_REGISTRY_SOURCES,  if  set,  is  treated  as  a  JSON object which contains lists of
       registry   names   under   the    keys    insecureRegistries,    blockedRegistries,    and
       allowedRegistries.

       When  pushing  an  image  to a registry, if the portion of the destination image name that
       corresponds to a registry is compared to the items in the blockedRegistries list,  and  if
       it  matches  any  of  them,  the  push  attempt is denied.  If there are registries in the
       allowedRegistries list, and the portion of the name that corresponds to  the  registry  is
       not in the list, the push attempt is denied.

       TMPDIR  The  TMPDIR  environment variable allows the user to specify where temporary files
       are stored while pulling and pushing images.  Defaults to '/var/tmp'.

FILES

       registries.conf (/etc/containers/registries.conf)

       registries.conf is the configuration  file  which  specifies  which  container  registries
       should  be consulted when completing image names which do not include a registry or domain
       portion.

       policy.json (/etc/containers/policy.json)

       Signature policy file.  This defines the trust  policy  for  container  images.   Controls
       which container registries can be used for image, and whether or not the tool should trust
       the images.
