We Need to Talk About Docker Registries

1

Docker Hub

Where does the Docker command line interface (CLI for short) pulls the images from? The answer is on the last line of the output. docker.io is the URL for a so called Docker registry. In this case, it refers to the default registry, Docker Hub, applied when you don't specify a registry URL as part of the pull command.

Gitlab Container Registry

An alternative to GitHub is GitLab (registry.gitlab.com), which has provided registry support for its free (public and private) repositories long before GitHub. The docs are also much better in my opinion, and the whole experience is tightly integrated with GitLab's CICD pipelines. This registry also needs login with a token.
