Import containers from registries

You can bring your existing linux containers from Docker Hub, Red Hat Quay.io, Amazon ECR, Azure, Google container registries. To reuse containers without fetching them everytime or associate the same container across multiple projects, a private registry is also provided for your Intel® Developer Cloud for the Edge account.

Navigate to Container from Registry

Use your
Dashboard
 view to access the
+Import Resources
 option and select
Container from Registry
.
First, select the target project from the drop down to associate containers to be imported. If you don’t have a project already, use the
+Create New Project
 option to continue importing from an internal or external registry.

Import from external registry

Enter the required details for importing from a
public
 container registry.
  • Container Url:
     Repository URL with a tag, e.g. for docker hub
    docker.io/user/repo:tag
  • Add this to internal registry:
     To reimport the container quickly in another project.
  • Container Name:
     Unique identifier to recognize across other Container Playground views.
To import from a
private
 registry, ensure
Private
 is checked and enter the additional details.
  • Registry Server URL:
     e.g. for docker hub private repository
    https://docker.io
  • Username:
     username used to log in to your registry
  • Password:
     your private registry password
  • The Url for AWS will be in the form of
    <aws_account_id>.dkr.ecr.<region>.amazonaws.com/<container_name>:<tag>
     and
    <container_name>.azurecr.io
     for Azure.
  • To import from AWS ECR private registry, first make sure your IAM user is assigned AmazonEC2ContainerRegistryReadOnly and above policy. Retrieve the
    Access Key ID
    ,
    Secret Access Key
     and use the aws configure command using the aws cli to login locally. Finally, retrieve the
    AWS ECR token
     using the command
    aws ecr get-login-password –region <region>
     which must be entered in the
    password
     field.
  • To import from Azure ACR private registry, setup and retrieve the
    username
     and
    password
     from
    Settings
     >
    Access Keys
     from the Azure portal.

Import from internal registry

Use this option to select a container previously imported with the
Add this to internal registry
 option. Check all the containers from list of containers you would like to associate with this project.
Click
import
 on the bottom right to view the list of containers associated with the current project. You can also continue importing additional containers with

 option.
Try out the above flow with docker hello-world container from dockerhub registry:
  • Project Name:
    helloworld-project
  • (Import From External Registry) Container Url:
    docker.io/hello-world
  • Container Name:
    helloworld-container
