How can I list all tags of a Docker image on a remote Docker registry using the CLI (preferred) or curl?
Preferably without pulling all versions from the remote registry. I just want to list the tags.
This question is related to
docker
You can use:
skopeo inspect docker://<REMOTE_REGISTRY> --authfile <PULL_SECRET> | jq .RepoTags
curl -u <username>:<password> https://$your_registry/v2/$image_name/tags/list -s -o - | \
tr -d '{' | tr -d '}' | sed -e 's/[][]//g' -e 's/"//g' -e 's/ //g' | \
awk -F: '{print $3}' | sed -e 's/,/\n/g'
You can use it if your env has no 'jq', = )
The Docker V2 API requires an OAuth bearer token with the appropriate claims. In my opinion, the official documentation is rather vague on the topic. So that others don't go through the same pain I did, I offer the below docker-tags
function.
The most recent version of docker-tags
can be found in my GitHubGist : "List Docker Image Tags using bash".
The docker-tags function has a dependency on jq. If you're playing with JSON, you likely already have it.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
docker-tags() {
arr=("$@")
for item in "${arr[@]}";
do
tokenUri="https://auth.docker.io/token"
data=("service=registry.docker.io" "scope=repository:$item:pull")
token="$(curl --silent --get --data-urlencode ${data[0]} --data-urlencode ${data[1]} $tokenUri | jq --raw-output '.token')"
listUri="https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/$item/tags/list"
authz="Authorization: Bearer $token"
result="$(curl --silent --get -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer $token" $listUri | jq --raw-output '.')"
echo $result
done
}
Example
docker-tags "microsoft/nanoserver" "microsoft/dotnet" "library/mongo" "library/redis"
Admittedly, docker-tags
makes several assumptions. Specifically, the OAuth request parameters are mostly hard coded. A more ambitious implementation would make an unauthenticated request to the registry and derive the OAuth parameters from the unauthenticated response.
I've managed to get it working using curl:
curl -u <username>:<password> https://myrepo.example/v1/repositories/<username>/<image_name>/tags
Note that image_name
should not contain user details etc. For example if you're pushing image named myrepo.example/username/x
then image_name
should be x
.
You can also use this scrap :
# vim /usr/sbin/docker-tags
& Append Following (as it is):
#!/bin/bash
im="$1"
[[ -z "$im" ]] && { echo -e '\e[31m[-]\e[39m Where is the image name ??' ; exit ; }
[[ -z "$(echo "$im"| grep -o '/')" ]] && { link="https://hub.docker.com/r/library/$im/tags/" ; } || { link="https://hub.docker.com/r/$im/tags/" ; }
resp="$(curl -sL "$link")"
err="$(echo "$resp" | grep -o 'Page Not Found')"
if [[ ! -z "$err" ]] ; then
echo -e "\e[31m[-]\e[39m No Image Found with name => [ \e[32m$im\e[39m ]"
exit
else
tags="$(echo "$resp"|sed -e 's|}|\n|g' -e 's|{|\n|g'|grep '"result"'|sed -e 's|,|\n|g'|cut -d '[' -f2|cut -d ']' -f1|sed '/"tags":/d'|sed -e 's|"||g')"
echo -e "\e[32m$tags\e[39m"
fi
Make it Executable :
# chmod 755 /usr/sbin/docker-tags
Then Finally Try By :
$ docker-tags testexampleidontexist
[-] No Image Found with name => [ testexampleidontexist ]
$ docker search ubuntu
$ docker-tags teamrock/ubuntu
latest
[ Hope you are aware of $ & # before running any command ]
You can list all the tags with skopeo
and jq
for json parsing through cli.
skopeo --override-os linux inspect docker://httpd | jq '.RepoTags'
[
"2-alpine",
"2.2-alpine",
"2.2.29",
"2.2.31-alpine",
"2.2.31",
"2.2.32-alpine",
"2.2.32",
"2.2.34-alpine",
"2.2.34",
"2.2",
"2.4-alpine",
"2.4.10",
"2.4.12",
"2.4.16",
"2.4.17",
"2.4.18",
"2.4.20",
"2.4.23-alpine",
"2.4.23",
"2.4.25-alpine",
"2.4.25",
"2.4.27-alpine",
"2.4.27",
"2.4.28-alpine",
"2.4.28",
"2.4.29-alpine",
"2.4.29",
"2.4.32-alpine",
"2.4.32",
"2.4.33-alpine",
"2.4.33",
"2.4.34-alpine",
"2.4.34",
"2.4.35-alpine",
"2.4.35",
"2.4.37-alpine",
"2.4.37",
"2.4.38-alpine",
"2.4.38",
"2.4.39-alpine",
"2.4.39",
"2.4.41-alpine",
"2.4.41",
"2.4.43-alpine",
"2.4.43",
"2.4",
"2",
"alpine",
"latest"
]
For external registries:
skopeo --override-os linux inspect --creds username:password docker://<registry-url>/<repo>/<image> | jq '.RepoTags'
Note: --override-os linux
is only needed if you are not running on a linux host. For example, you'll have better results with it if you are on MacOS.
I have done this thing when I have to implement a task in which if user somehow type the wrong tag then we have to give the list of all the tag present in the repo(Docker repo) present in the register. So I have code in batch Script.
<html>
<pre style="background-color:#bcbbbb;">
@echo off
docker login --username=xxxx --password=xxxx
docker pull %1:%2
IF NOT %ERRORLEVEL%==0 (
echo "Specified Version is Not Found "
echo "Available Version for this image is :"
for /f %%i in (' curl -s -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X POST -d "{\"username\":\"user\",\"password\":\"password\"}" https://hub.docker.com/v2/users/login ^|jq -r .token ') do set TOKEN=%%i
curl -sH "Authorization: JWT %TOKEN%" "https://hub.docker.com/v2/repositories/%1/tags/" | jq .results[].name
)
</pre>
</html>
So in this we can give arguments to out batch file like:
Dockerfile java version7
Get all tags from Docker Hub: this command uses the command-line JSON
processor jq
to select the tag names from the JSON
returned by the Docker Hub Registry (the quotes are removed with tr
). Replace library with the Docker Hub user name, debian with the image name:
curl -s 'https://registry.hub.docker.com/v2/repositories/library/debian/tags/' | jq -r '."results"[]["name"]'
In powershell 5.1, I have a simple list_docker_image_tags.ps1 script like this:
[CmdletBinding()]
param (
[Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
[string]
$image
)
$url = "https://registry.hub.docker.com/v1/repositories/{0}/tags" -f $image
Invoke-WebRequest $url | ConvertFrom-Json | Write-Output
Then I can grep for 4.7 tags like this:
./list_docker_image_tags.ps1 microsoft/dotnet-framework | ?{ $_.name -match "4.7" }
Building on Yan Foto's answer (the v2 api), I created a simple Python script to list the tags for a given image.
Usage:
./docker-registry-list.py alpine
Output:
{
"name": "library/alpine",
"tags": [
"2.6",
"2.7",
"3.1",
"3.2",
"3.3",
"3.4",
"3.5",
"3.6",
"3.7",
"edge",
"latest"
]
}
Here's a Powershell script I wrote for Windows. Handles v1 and v2 repos:
Get-DockerImageVersions.ps1:
param (
[Parameter (Mandatory=$true)]$ImageName,
[Parameter (Mandatory=$false)]$RegistryURL
)
if (!$RegistryURL)
{
$RegistryURL = "https://registry.hub.docker.com/v1/repositories"
}
$list = ""
if ($RegistryURL -like "*v2*")
{
$list = "/list"
}
$URL = "$RegistryURL/$ImageName/tags$list"
write-debug $URL
$resp = Invoke-WebRequest -UseBasicParsing $URL | ConvertFrom-Json
if ($RegistryURL -like "*v2*")
{
$tags = $resp | select tags
$tags.tags
} else {
$tags = $resp | select name
$tags.name
}
You can achieve by running on terminal this:
curl -L -s 'https://registry.hub.docker.com/v2/repositories/library/mysql/tags/' | jq . | grep name
Also, if you don't have jq you have to install it by
sudo apt-get install jq
If folks want to read tags from the RedHat registry at https://registry.redhat.io/v2
then the steps are:
# example nodejs-12 image
IMAGE_STREAM=nodejs-12
REDHAT_REGISTRY_API="https://registry.redhat.io/v2/rhel8/$IMAGE_STREAM"
# Get an oAuth token based on a service account username and password https://access.redhat.com/articles/3560571
TOKEN=$(curl --silent -u "$REGISTRY_USER":"$REGISTRY_PASSWORD" "https://sso.redhat.com/auth/realms/rhcc/protocol/redhat-docker-v2/auth?service=docker-registry&client_id=curl&scope=repository:rhel:pull" | jq --raw-output '.token')
# Grab the tags
wget -q --header="Accept: application/json" --header="Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -O - "$REDHAT_REGISTRY_API/tags/list" | jq -r '."tags"[]'
If you want to compare what you have in your local openshift registry against what is in the upstream registry.redhat.com then here is a complete script.
See CLI utility: https://www.npmjs.com/package/docker-browse
Allows enumeration of tags and images.
docker-browse tags <image>
will list all tags for the image. e.g. docker-browse tags library/alpine
docker-browse images
will list all images in the registry. Not currently available for index.docker.io
.
You may connect it to any registry, including your private one, so long as it supports Docker Registry HTTP API V2
The Docker Registry API has an endpoint to list all tags.
Looks like Tutum has a similar endpoint, as well as a way to access via tutum-cli.
With the tutum-cli, try the following:
tutum tag list <uuid>
If you want to use the docker registry v2 API, it lists tags by pages. To list all the tags of an image, you may would like to add a large page_size parameter to the url, e.g.
curl -L -s 'https://registry.hub.docker.com/v2/repositories/library/centos/tags?page_size=1024'|jq '."results"[]["name"]'
If the JSON parsing tool, jq
is available
wget -q https://registry.hub.docker.com/v1/repositories/debian/tags -O - | \
jq -r '.[].name'
To view all available tags in a browser:
https://registry.hub.docker.com/v1/repositories/<username>/<image_name>/tags
i.e. https://hub.docker.com/r/localstack/localstack/tags
Or, you can get a json response using this endpoint:
https://registry.hub.docker.com/v1/repositories/localstack/localstack/tags
