Richard Scothern 94935f39bc Add pull through cache functionality to the Registry which can be configured
with a new `proxy` section in the configuration file.

Create a new registry type which delegates storage to a proxyBlobStore
and proxyManifestStore.  These stores will pull through data if not present
locally.  proxyBlobStore takes care not to write duplicate data to disk.

Add a scheduler to cleanup expired content. The scheduler runs as a background
goroutine.  When a blob or manifest is pulled through from the remote registry,
an entry is added to the scheduler with a TTL.  When the TTL expires the
scheduler calls a pre-specified function to remove the fetched resource.

Add token authentication to the registry middleware.  Get a token at startup
and preload the credential store with the username and password supplied in the
config file.

Allow resumable digest functionality to be disabled at runtime and disable
it when the registry is a pull through cache.

Distribution

The Docker toolset to pack, ship, store, and deliver content.

This repository's main product is the Docker Registry 2.0 implementation for storing and distributing Docker images. It supersedes the docker/docker- registry project with a new API design, focused around security and performance.

This repository contains the following components:

Component Description
registry An implementation of the Docker Registry HTTP API V2 for use with docker 1.6+.
libraries A rich set of libraries for interacting with,distribution components. Please see godoc for details. Note: These libraries are unstable.
dist An experimental tool to provide distribution, oriented functionality without the docker daemon.
specifications Distribution related specifications are available in docs/spec
documentation Docker's full documentation set is available at docs.docker.com. This repository contains the subset related just to the registry.

How does this integrate with Docker engine?

This project should provide an implementation to a V2 API for use in the Docker core project. The API should be embeddable and simplify the process of securely pulling and pushing content from docker daemons.

What are the long term goals of the Distribution project?

The Distribution project has the further long term goal of providing a secure tool chain for distributing content. The specifications, APIs and tools should be as useful with Docker as they are without.

Our goal is to design a professional grade and extensible content distribution system that allow users to:

  • Enjoy an efficient, secured and reliable way to store, manage, package and exchange content
  • Hack/roll their own on top of healthy open-source components
  • Implement their own home made solution through good specs, and solid extensions mechanism.

More about Registry 2.0

The new registry implementation provides the following benefits:

  • faster push and pull
  • new, more efficient implementation
  • simplified deployment
  • pluggable storage backend
  • webhook notifications

For information on upcoming functionality, please see ROADMAP.md.

Who needs to deploy a registry?

By default, Docker users pull images from Docker's public registry instance. Installing Docker gives users this ability. Users can also push images to a repository on Docker's public registry, if they have a Docker Hub account.

For some users and even companies, this default behavior is sufficient. For others, it is not.

For example, users with their own software products may want to maintain a registry for private, company images. Also, you may wish to deploy your own image repository for images used to test or in continuous integration. For these use cases and others, deploying your own registry instance may be the better choice.
