L/S tags

Utility and API to manipulate (analyze, synchronize and aggregate) images across different Docker registries.

Example invocation

$ lstags alpine~/^3\\./
<STATE>      <DIGEST>                                   <(local) ID>    <Created At>          <TAG>

PRESENT      sha256:129a7f8c0fae8c3251a8df9370577d9d6   074d602a59d7    2017-09-13T16:32:20   alpine:3.5

NB! You can specify many images to operate on, e.g: lstags nginx~/^1\\.13/ mesosphere/chronos alpine~/^3\\./

Why would someone use this?

You could use lstags, if you ...

  • ... aggregate images from different external registries into your own registry for speed and locality reasons.
  • ... compare images present locally with the registry ones (e.g.: know if image tagged "latest" was re-pushed).
  • ... continuously pull Docker images from some public or private registry to speed-up Docker run on your system.

How?

... pull Ubuntu 14.04 & 16.04, all the Alpine images and Debian "stretch" to have the latest software to play with:

lstags --pull ubuntu~/^1[46]\\.04$/ alpine debian~/stretch/

... pull and re-push CoreOS-related images from quay.io to your own registry (in case these hipsters will break everything):

lstags -P /quay -r registry.company.io quay.io/coreos/hyperkube quay.io/coreos/flannel

NB! In case you use private registry with authentication, make sure your Docker client knows how to authenticate against it! lstags will reuse credentials saved by Docker client in its config.json file, one usually found at ~/.docker/config.json

Possible image states

lstags distinguishes five states of Docker image:

  • ABSENT - present in registry, but absent locally
  • PRESENT - present in registry, present locally, with local and remote digests being equal
  • CHANGED - present in registry, present locally, but with different local and remote digests
  • ASSUMED - maybe present in registry, not discovered by search, its presence assumed by user
  • LOCAL-ONLY - present locally, absent in registry

Authentication

You can either:

  • rely on lstags discovering credentials "automagically" ๐ŸŽฉ
  • load credentials from any Docker JSON config file specified

Assume tags

Sometimes registry may contain tags not exposed to any kind of search though still existing. lstags is unable to discover these tags, but if you need to pull or push them, you may "assume" they exist and make lstags blindly try to pull these tags from the registry. To inject assumed tags into the registry query you need to extend repository specification with a = followed by a comma-separated list of tags you want to assume.

e.g. we assume tags v1.6.1 and v1.7.0 exist like this: lstags quay.io/calico/cni=v1.6.1,v1.7.0

Repository specification

Full repository specification looks like this:

[REGISTRY[:PORT]/]REPOSITORY[~/FILTER_REGEXP/][=TAG1,TAG2,TAGn]

You may provide infinite number of repository specifications to lstags

Push prefix

When you [re]push images to your "push" registry, you can control the destination repository path prefix:

  • by default, repository path prefix will be auto-generated from the source registry hostname, e.g.:
    • alpine โ–ถ๏ธ /registry/hub/docker/com/
    • localhost:5000/nginx โ–ถ๏ธ /localhost/
    • registry.company.com/hype/kubernetes โ–ถ๏ธ /registry/company/com/
  • passing --push-prefix=/ will push images "as is", with no additional repository path prefix
  • passing --push-prefix=/my/prefix/ will push images appending /my/prefix/ to the repository path
  • specifying /my/prefix without trailing slash is OK, as long as path would still be formatted correctly by API โœจ
  • passing --push-prefix="" would trigger "default" behavior with prefix being auto-generated

To fail or not to fail?

By default application exits after encountering any errors. To make it more tolerant to subsequent failures, you may use CLI option -N, --do-not-fail or set environment variable DO_NOT_FAIL=true before running application. HINT: Option -d, --daemon-mode always implies activation of --do-not-fail.

YAML

๐Ÿ’ก You can load repositories from the YAML file just like you do it from the command line arguments:

lstags -f file.yaml

A valid YAML file looks like this (mandatory lstags root key is here to be able to use "shared" YAMLs):

lstags:
  repositories:
    - busybox
    - nginx:stable
    - mesosphere/marathon-lb~/^v1/
    - quay.io/coreos/awscli=master,latest,edge
    - gcr.io/google-containers/hyperkube~/^v1\.(9|10)\./

NB! lstags can load repositories from YAML or from CLI args, but not from both at the same time!

Install: Binaries

https://github.com/ivanilves/lstags/releases

Install: Wrapper

git clone [email protected]:ivanilves/lstags.git
cd lstags
sudo make wrapper
lstags -h

A special wrapper script will be installed to manage lstags invocation and updates. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Install: From source

git clone [email protected]:ivanilves/lstags.git
cd lstags
dep ensure
go build
./lstags -h

NB! I assume you have current versions of Go & dep installed and also have set up GOPATH correctly.

Using it with Docker

docker run --rm -it -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock ivanilves/lstags
Usage:
  lstags [OPTIONS] REPO1 REPO2 REPOn...

Application Options:
  -j, --docker-json=          JSON file with credentials (default:
                              ~/.docker/config.json) [$DOCKER_JSON]
  -p, --pull                  Pull Docker images matched by filter (will use
                              local Docker deamon) [$PULL]
  -P, --push                  Push Docker images matched by filter to some
                              registry (See 'push-registry') [$PUSH]
  -r, --push-registry=        [Re]Push pulled images to a specified remote
                              registry [$PUSH_REGISTRY]

Development

You are very welcome to open pull requests to this repository! ๐Ÿ˜‰

โš ๏ธ CI build will fail, if your commit messages are not semantic!

To maximize our collaboration efficiency we would humbly ask you to follow these recommendations:

  • Please add reasonable description (what?/why?/etc) to your pull request โ—
  • Your code should pass CI (Travis) and a [pretty liberal] code review ๐Ÿ”
  • If code adds or changes some logic, it should be covered by a unit test :neckbeard:
  • Please, put meaningful and semantic messages on your commits ๐Ÿ™

NB! Not a requirement, but a GIF included in PR description would make our world a happier place!

'NORELEASE' branches and commits

We have automatic release system. Every PR merge will create a new application release with a changelog generated from PR branch commits. For the most cases it is OK. However, if you work with things that do not need to be released (e.g. non user-facing changes), you have following options:

  • If you don't want to create release from your PR, make it from branch containing "NORELEASE" keyword in its name.
  • If you want to prevent single commit from appearing in a changelog, please start commit message with "NORELEASE".

โš ๏ธ We don't build RPMs/DEBs/etc, as we see no need for it. We ship lstags as a single binary or as a Docker container.

API

You may use lstags either as a standalone CLI or as a Golang package inside your own application.

Set up and build PoC application with our v1 API:

make poc-app APP_PATH=../lstags-api
cd ../lstags-api
go build
# run "./lstags-api" binary to see PoC in action (examine main.go first to ensure no "rm -rf /" is there)
  • This installs all necessary dependencies and sets up PoC application at the path ../lstags-api/
  • We assume you already have recent Golang version installed on your system https://golang.org/dl/

GoDoc

NB! Far more complete API usage example could be found in main.go ๐Ÿ˜‰
