hub prefix with upstream docker.io and
upstream prefix library lets a client pull hub/nginx:stable through
your account’s registry URI:
library namespace is supplied by the rule, so it is omitted from your
image reference. Use another rule with the appropriate upstream prefix for
images in other Docker Hub namespaces.
Create a rule with POST /v1/pull-through-cache-rules. Its required fields are
prefix and upstream_registry. The response returns uri_prefix; append the
remaining image name and tag to that value. Rule prefixes may contain one or two
repository-name components.
Credentials
For an authenticated upstream, supply bothupstream_username and
upstream_secret. The secret is write-only; reads return has_credential, not
the secret. A PATCH preserves omitted fields. To clear stored credentials,
supply empty username and secret values together.
Only supported public upstream destinations are accepted. Upstream availability,
credentials, and rate limits still affect a cache miss. This feature does not
provide access to a private network endpoint.
Permissions and ownership
Importing on a miss requiresregistry:BatchImportUpstreamImage in addition to
the normal pull actions. A reader without import permission can consume cached
images but cannot cause a new upstream import. Imported content consumes the
account’s registry storage and is subject to its quotas and lifecycle rules.
Manage rules by their prefix at /v1/pull-through-cache-rules/{prefix}.
Deleting a rule stops future cache imports through it; it does not remove
repositories and images already imported. Review retained images separately.
