NB! You can specify many images to operate on, e.g: lstags nginx~/^1\\.13/ mesosphere/chronos alpine~/^3\\./
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.
... 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
lstags
distinguishes five states of Docker image:
ABSENT
- present in registry, but absent locallyPRESENT
- present in registry, present locally, with local and remote digests being equalCHANGED
- present in registry, present locally, but with different local and remote digestsLOCAL_ONLY
- present locally, absent in registryNOT_FOUND
- absent in registry, absent locally, probably does not exist at all
You can either:
- rely on
lstags
discovering credentials "automagically" 🎩 - load credentials from any Docker JSON config file specified
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
Full repository specification looks like this:
[REGISTRY[:PORT]/]REPOSITORY[~/FILTER_REGEXP/][=TAG1,TAG2,TAGn]
You may provide infinite number of repository specifications to lstags
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
▶️ /registry/hub/docker/com/
localhost:5000/nginx
▶️ /localhost/
registry.company.com/hype/kubernetes
▶️ /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 ✨ - passing
--push-prefix=""
would trigger "default" behavior with prefix being auto-generated
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
.
💡 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!

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. 😎
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.
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]

You are very welcome to open pull requests to this repository! 😉
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 ❗
- Your code should pass CI (CircleCI) and a [pretty liberal] code review 🔍
- If code adds or changes some logic, it should be covered by a unit test
- Please, put meaningful and semantic messages on your commits 🙏
NB! Not a requirement, but a GIF included in PR description would make our world a happier place!
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".
lstags
as a single binary or as a Docker container.
You may use lstags either as a standalone CLI or as a Golang package inside your own application.
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/
- https://godoc.org/github.com/ivanilves/lstags/api/v1
- https://godoc.org/github.com/ivanilves/lstags/api/v1/collection
- https://godoc.org/github.com/ivanilves/lstags/repository
- https://godoc.org/github.com/ivanilves/lstags/tag
NB! Far more complete API usage example could be found in main.go 😉
