Getting started with Cloud Registry

Use this guide to create your first registry and try managing Docker images.

Getting startedGetting started

To create a registry, you will need a folder in Yandex Cloud. If you do not have any folders yet, create one before creating a registry:

1. In the management console, select the appropriate cloud from the list on the left.

2. At the top right, click Create folder.

3. Enter the folder name. The naming requirements are as follows:

   • The name must be from 3 to 63 characters long.
   • It may contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, and hyphens.
   • The first character must be a letter and the last character cannot be a hyphen.

4. (Optional) Enter a description of the folder.

5. Select Create a default network. This will create a network with subnets in each availability zone. Within this network, a default security group will be created, inside which all network traffic is allowed.

6. Click Create.

Creating a registry and pushing a Docker imageCreating a registry and pushing a Docker image

To work with Cloud Registry and Docker images:

1. Install the Yandex Cloud CLI and configure Docker.

2. Create a registry in Cloud Registry.

3. Get authenticated in Cloud Registry.

4. Pull a Docker image from Docker Hub:

   docker pull ubuntu
   

5. Assign the pulled Docker image a tag in this format: registry.yandexcloud.net/<registry_ID>/<Docker_image_name>:<tag>:

   docker tag ubuntu \
   registry.yandexcloud.net/<registry_ID>/ubuntu:hello
   

6. Push the Docker image to the repository Cloud Registry:

   docker push \
   registry.yandexcloud.net/<registry_ID>/ubuntu:hello
   

7. Run the Docker image:

   docker run \
   registry.yandexcloud.net/<registry_ID>/ubuntu:hello
