## NAME
skopeo\-inspect - Return low-level information about _image-name_ in a registry.

## SYNOPSIS
**skopeo inspect** [*options*] _image-name_

## DESCRIPTION

Return low-level information about _image-name_ in a registry.
See [skopeo(1)](skopeo.1.md) for the format of _image-name_.

The default output includes data from various sources: user input (**Name**), the remote repository, if any (**RepoTags**), the top-level manifest (**Digest**),
and a per-architecture/OS image matching the current run-time environment (most other values).
To see values for a different architecture/OS, use the **--override-os** / **--override-arch** options documented in [skopeo(1)](skopeo.1.md).

## OPTIONS

**--authfile** _path_

Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG\_RUNTIME\_DIR}/containers/auth.json, which is set using `skopeo login`.
If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which is set using `docker login`.

**--cert-dir** _path_

Use certificates at _path_ (\*.crt, \*.cert, \*.key) to connect to the registry.

**--config**

Output configuration in OCI format, default is to format in JSON format.

**--creds** _username[:password]_

Username and password for accessing the registry.

**--daemon-host** _host_

Use docker daemon host at _host_ (`docker-daemon:` transport only)

**--format**, **-f**=*format*

Format the output using the given Go template.
The keys of the returned JSON can be used as the values for the --format flag (see examples below).

**--help**, **-h**

Print usage statement

**--no-creds**

Access the registry anonymously.

**--raw**

Output raw manifest or config data depending on --config option.
The --format option is not supported with --raw option.

**--registry-token** _Bearer token_

Registry token for accessing the registry.

**--retry-times**

The number of times to retry; retry wait time will be exponentially increased based on the number of failed attempts.

**--shared-blob-dir** _directory_

Directory to use to share blobs across OCI repositories.

**--tls-verify**=_bool_

Require HTTPS and verify certificates when talking to the container registry or daemon. Default to registry.conf setting.

**--username**

The username to access the registry.

**--password**

The password to access the registry.

**--no-tags**, **-n**

Do not list the available tags from the repository in the output. When `true`, the `RepoTags` array will be empty.  Defaults to `false`, which includes all available tags.
