marina

An open source alternative to Docker Hub supporting ARM architectures. Extending the Docker Registry with a simple web UI for automatically building new images from GitHub repositories.

Installation

Basic server setup

Set up your ARM-based server with a Debian Jessie image so that it can accessed via SSH through some_ip. Move into the scripts/ansible directory and edit hosts to:

[marina]
marina ansible_ssh_port=22 ansible_ssh_user=root ansible_ssh_host=some_ip

Copy over your public SSH key to the server (if ssh-copy-id is not available, copy the file over manually).

ssh-copy-id root@some_ip

Keeping things secure

Create an SSL certificate. If you want to self-sign it do:

openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4086 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem \
-days 3650 -nodes

Create the user accounts:

htpasswd -c docker-registry.htpasswd user1 # for the first user
htpasswd docker-registry.htpasswd userN # for every subsequent user

Copy these files as key.pem, cert.pem and htpasswd-registry.pem to scripts/ansible/security/.

Ansible scripts for deploying

Install Ansible. Test that the machine is indeed accessible:

ansible -i ./hosts -m ping marina

Great, now you can run the playbook with:

ansible-playbook marina.yml

Other options

Later, to just rebuild the images run:

ansible-playbook marina.yml -t build

To skip the building do:

ansible-playbook marina.yml --skip-tags=build

To set some non-default options, you can pass them as env. vars:

PAGEKITE_SECRET="mypwd" DH_SIZE=512 REG_USER=test REG_PW=testpw \
  REG_EMAIL=test@example.com ansible-playbook marina.yml

Pushing to the registry

docker login http://<REGISTRY-DOMAIN>:5000
docker tag <image> <REGISTRY-DOMAIN>:5000/<image>
docker push <REGISTRY-DOMAIN>:5000/<image>

Pulling from the registry

docker login http://<REGISTRY-DOMAIN>:5000
docker pull <REGISTRY-DOMAIN>:5000/<image>

Build the images

scripts/build_docker_images.sh scripts/docker_images.txt /root/docker_images

TODO

modify the blimp image building scripts to push the built images to the registry
build images on external media (usb)
add scripts to clean old/deleted containers/images
