Quay Container Registry

Use username, password and image name to use Quay private container registries and deploy the image on SCE.

In order to use Quay you need to have an organization and account at Quay. If you already have, you can skip step 1 and follow the guide from step 2.

Step 1 : Create Quay Account

Begin by creating a Quay account for yourself or your organization at Quay.

Step 2: Create Public/Private Repository

Inside your Quay account, create a public/private repository where you'll store your Docker images securely.

Step 3 : Initialize the Repository

Initialize your private repository in one of these ways:

  1. Dockerfile: If you have a Dockerfile, you can use it to initialize your repository.
  2. GitHub Repository Path: Link your Quay repository to a GitHub repository to automate image pushes.
  3. Bitbucket: Similar to GitHub, link your Quay repository to a Bitbucket repository for automated image pushes.
  4. Custom Git Repository: Link to a custom Git repository if your code is hosted elsewhere.

Step 4: Build the Image on Quay Portal

Use the Quay portal to build the Docker image associated with your private repository. Follow the on-screen instructions.

  1. Quay username and password.
  2. Image name from your private Quay repository

Step 6 :Start the Container

With all configurations in place, click the "Start" button in the Salad portal to launch your container using the private Quay registry image.
