## NAME
|
|
|
|
containers-transports - description of supported transports for copying and storing container images
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Tools which use the containers/image library, including skopeo(1), buildah(1), podman(1), all share a common syntax for referring to container images in various locations.
|
|
The general form of the syntax is _transport:details_, where details are dependent on the specified transport, which are documented below.
|
|
|
|
### **containers-storage**:[**[**storage-specifier**]**]{image-id|docker-reference[@image-id]}
|
|
|
|
An image located in a local containers storage.
|
|
The format of _docker-reference_ is described in detail in the **docker** transport.
|
|
|
|
The _storage-specifier_ allows for referencing storage locations on the file system and has the format `[[driver@]root[+run-root][:options]]` where the optional `driver` refers to the storage driver (e.g., overlay or btrfs) and where `root` is an absolute path to the storage's root directory.
|
|
The optional `run-root` can be used to specify the run directory of the storage where all temporary writable content is stored.
|
|
The optional `options` are a comma-separated list of driver-specific options.
|
|
Please refer to containers-storage.conf(5) for further information on the drivers and supported options.
|
|
|
|
### **dir:**_path_
|
|
|
|
An existing local directory _path_ storing the manifest, layer tarballs and signatures as individual files.
|
|
This is a non-standardized format, primarily useful for debugging or noninvasive container inspection.
|
|
|
|
### **docker://**_docker-reference_
|
|
|
|
An image in a registry implementing the "Docker Registry HTTP API V2".
|
|
By default, uses the authorization state in `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/containers/auth.json`, which is set using podman-login(1).
|
|
If the authorization state is not found there, `$HOME/.docker/config.json` is checked, which is set using docker-login(1).
|
|
The containers-registries.conf(5) further allows for configuring various settings of a registry.
|
|
|
|
Note that a _docker-reference_ has the following format: `name[:tag|@digest]`.
|
|
While the docker transport does not support both a tag and a digest at the same time some formats like containers-storage do.
|
|
Digests can also be used in an image destination as long as the manifest matches the provided digest.
|
|
The digest of images can be explored with skopeo-inspect(1).
|
|
If `name` does not contain a slash, it is treated as `docker.io/library/name`.
|
|
Otherwise, the component before the first slash is checked if it is recognized as a `hostname[:port]` (i.e., it contains either a . or a :, or the component is exactly localhost).
|
|
If the first component of name is not recognized as a `hostname[:port]`, `name` is treated as `docker.io/name`.
|
|
|
|
### **docker-archive:**_path[:{docker-reference|@source-index}]_
|
|
|
|
An image is stored in the docker-save(1) formatted file.
|
|
_docker-reference_ must not contain a digest.
|
|
Alternatively, for reading archives, @_source-index_ is a zero-based index in archive manifest
|
|
(to access untagged images).
|
|
If neither _docker-reference_ nor @_source_index is specified when reading an archive, the archive must contain exactly one image.
|
|
|
|
It is further possible to copy data to stdin by specifying `docker-archive:/dev/stdin` but note that the used file must be seekable.
|
|
|
|
### **docker-daemon:**_docker-reference|algo:digest_
|
|
|
|
An image stored in the docker daemon's internal storage.
|
|
The image must be specified as a _docker-reference_ or in an alternative _algo:digest_ format when being used as an image source.
|
|
The _algo:digest_ refers to the image ID reported by docker-inspect(1).
|
|
|
|
### **oci:**_path[:reference]_
|
|
|
|
An image compliant with the "Open Container Image Layout Specification" at _path_.
|
|
Using a _reference_ is optional and allows for storing multiple images at the same _path_.
|
|
|
|
### **oci-archive:**_path[:reference]_
|
|
|
|
An image compliant with the "Open Container Image Layout Specification" stored as a tar(1) archive at _path_.
|
|
|
|
### **ostree:**_docker-reference[@/absolute/repo/path]_
|
|
|
|
An image in the local ostree(1) repository.
|
|
_/absolute/repo/path_ defaults to _/ostree/repo_.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
The following examples demonstrate how some of the containers transports can be used.
|
|
The examples use skopeo-copy(1) for copying container images.
|
|
|
|
**Copying an image from one registry to another**:
|
|
```
|
|
$ skopeo copy docker://docker.io/library/alpine:latest docker://localhost:5000/alpine:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Copying an image from a running Docker daemon to a directory in the OCI layout**:
|
|
```
|
|
$ mkdir alpine-oci
|
|
$ skopeo copy docker-daemon:alpine:latest oci:alpine-oci
|
|
$ tree alpine-oci
|
|
test-oci/
