Once you have fetched your required information, you can now create a new registry. For the registry, you can alter the days and time. You can also update the location based on the available container registry locations.

We assume the following prerequisites:

• A location for container registry

• An available name for the registry

With the POST request, you can create a container registry.

Request

curl --location  \
--request POST 'https://api.ionos.com/containerregistries/registries' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic am9obkBleGFtcGxlLmNvbTphYmMxMjM=' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
  "properties": {
    "garbageCollectionSchedule": {
      "days": [
        "Saturday",
        "Sunday"
      ],
      "time": "19:30:00+00:00"
    },
    "location": "de/fra",
    "name": "demo"
  }
}'

Input Parameters

You can update the limit value to get specific registries based on the limit value being passed.

This section shows you how to create a registry token. We assume the following prerequisite:

• A container registry

In this guide, we used test named repository to create registry tokens. Therefore, it is important that the you know your container registry name.

With the POST request, you get the registry token. You will need to provide registry ID:

Request

curl --location  \
--request POST 'https://api.ionos.com/containerregistries/registries/:789f8e3c-d5c8-4359-8f85-c200fb89e97c/tokens' \

Docker CLI

If you want to push your local images to docker repository, you need to login to it using:

docker login [OPTIONS] [SERVER]

You need to enter the following options to login:

• Hostname

• Username

• Password

For more information, refer to the the Docker Commands.

You can push the images to your registry by providing all required information. You can query registries and look at images manifest, discover tags, delete layers and delete manifest etc. In the Docker API calls:

• You can use the name of registry

• Authenticate the API calls with a token

To know more, explore the Docker Documentation. On the other hand, DCD uses an easy to opt passthrough feature which as discussed uses Basic Auth feature, so you dont need to use a separate authentication method for Data Center Designer (DCD).

The IONOS Cloud Container Registry service allows you to manage Docker and OCI compatible registries for use by your managed Kubernetes clusters. Use a container registry to make sure you have a private registry to effectively support pulling images.

ContainerRegistry API - OpenAPI Specification

Endpoint: https://api.ionos.com/containerregistries

To make authenticated requests to the API, you must include a few fields in the request headers. Please find relevant descriptions below:

Request parameter headers
