## NAME
|
|
skopeo -- Command line utility used to interact with local and remote container images and container image registries
|
|
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
|
**skopeo** [_global options_] _command_ [_command options_]
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
`skopeo` is a command line utility providing various operations with container images and container image registries.
|
|
|
|
`skopeo` can copy container images between various containers image stores, converting them as necessary. For example you can use `skopeo` to copy container images from one container registry to another.
|
|
|
|
`skopeo` can convert a Docker schema 2 or schema 1 container image to an OCI image.
|
|
|
|
`skopeo` can inspect a repository on a container registry without needlessly pulling the image. Pulling an image from a repository, especially a remote repository, is an expensive network and storage operation. Skopeo fetches the repository's manifest and displays a `docker inspect`-like json output about the repository or a tag. `skopeo`, in contrast to `docker inspect`, helps you gather useful information about a repository or a tag without requiring you to run `docker pull` - e.g. - Which tags are available for the given repository? Which labels does the image have?
|
|
|
|
`skopeo` can sign and verify container images.
|
|
|
|
`skopeo` can delete container images from a remote container registry.
|
|
|
|
Note: `skopeo` does not require any container runtimes to be running, to do most of
|
|
its functionality. It also does not require root, unless you are copying images into a container runtime storage backend, like the docker daemon or github.com/containers/storage.
|
|
|
|
## IMAGE NAMES
|
|
Most commands refer to container images, using a _transport_`:`_details_ format. The following formats are supported:
|
|
|
|
**containers-storage:**_docker-reference_
|
|
An image located in a local containers/storage image store. Both the location and image store are specified in /etc/containers/storage.conf. (Backend for Podman, CRI-O, Buildah and friends)
|
|
|
|
**dir:**_path_
|
|
An existing local directory _path_ storing the manifest, layer tarballs and signatures as individual files. This is a non-standardized format, primarily useful for debugging or noninvasive container inspection.
|
|
|
|
**docker://**_docker-reference_
|
|
An image in a registry implementing the "Docker Registry HTTP API V2". By default, uses the authorization state in either `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/containers/auth.json`, which is set using `(skopeo login)`. If the authorization state is not found there, `$HOME/.docker/config.json` is checked, which is set using `(docker login)`.
|
|
|
|
**docker-archive:**_path_[**:**_docker-reference_]
|
|
An image is stored in the `docker save` formatted file. _docker-reference_ is only used when creating such a file, and it must not contain a digest.
|
|
|
|
**docker-daemon:**_docker-reference_
|
|
An image _docker-reference_ stored in the docker daemon internal storage. _docker-reference_ must contain either a tag or a digest. Alternatively, when reading images, the format can be docker-daemon:algo:digest (an image ID).
|
|
|
|
**oci:**_path_**:**_tag_
|
|
An image _tag_ in a directory compliant with "Open Container Image Layout Specification" at _path_.
|
|
|
|
**oci-archive:**_path_**:**_tag_
|
|
An image _tag_ in a tar archive compliant with "Open Container Image Layout Specification" at _path_.
|
|
|
|
See [containers-transports(5)](https://github.com/containers/image/blob/master/docs/containers-transports.5.md) for details.
|
|
|

|
|
**--command-timeout** _duration_
|
|
|
|
Timeout for the command execution.
|
|
|
|
**--debug**
|
|
|
|
enable debug output
|
|
|
|
**--help**, **-h**
|
|
|
|
Show help
|
|
|
|
**--insecure-policy**
|
|
|
|
Adopt an insecure, permissive policy that allows anything. This obviates the need for a policy file.
|
|
|
|
**--override-arch** _arch_
|
|
|
|
Use _arch_ instead of the architecture of the machine for choosing images.
|
|
|
|
**--override-os** _os_
|
|
|
|
Use _OS_ instead of the running OS for choosing images.
|
|
|
|
**--override-variant** _variant_
|
|
|
|
Use _variant_ instead of the running architecture variant for choosing images.
|
|
|
|
**--policy** _path-to-policy_
|
|
|
|
Path to a policy.json file to use for verifying signatures and deciding whether an image is trusted, overriding the default trust policy file.
|
|
|
|
**--registries.d** _dir_
|
|
|
|
Use registry configuration files in _dir_ (e.g. for container signature storage), overriding the default path.
|
|
|
|
**--tmpdir** _dir_
|
|
|
|
Directory used to store temporary files. Defaults to /var/tmp.
|
|
|
|
