Chapter 5. Quay.io organizations overview
In = Quay.io an organization is a grouping of users, repositories, and teams. It provides a means to organize and manage access control and permissions within the registry. With organizations, administrators can assign roles and permissions to users and teams. Other useful information about organizations includes the following:
- You cannot have an organization embedded within another organization. To subdivide an organization, you use teams.
Organizations cannot contain users directly. You must first add a team, and then add one or more users to each team.
NoteIndividual users can be added to specific repositories inside of an organization. Consequently, those users are not members of any team on the Repository Settings page. The Collaborators View on the Teams and Memberships page shows users who have direct access to specific repositories within the organization without needing to be part of that organization specifically.
- Teams can be set up in organizations as just members who use the repositories and associated images, or as administrators with special privileges for managing the Organization.
Users can create their own organization to share repositories of container images. This can be done through the Quay.io UI.
5.1. Creating an organization by using the UI
Use the following procedure to create a new organization by using the UI.
Procedure
- Log in to your Red Hat Quay registry.
- Click Organization in the navigation pane.
- Click Create Organization.
-
Enter an Organization Name, for example,
testorg. - Enter an Organization Email.
- Click Create.
Now, your example organization should populate under the Organizations page.
5.2. Organization settings
With = Quay.io, some basic organization settings can be adjusted by using the UI. This includes adjusting general settings, such as the e-mail address associated with the organization, and time machine settings, which allows administrators to adjust when a tag is garbage collected after it is permanently deleted.
Use the following procedure to alter your organization settings by using the v2 UI.
Procedure
- On the v2 UI, click Organizations.
-
Click the name of the organization that you will create the robot account for, for example,
test-org. - Click the Settings tab.
- Optional. Enter the email address associated with the organization.
Optional. Set the allotted time for the Time Machine feature to one of the following:
- A few seconds
- A day
- 7 days
- 14 days
- A month
- Click Save.
5.3. Red Hat Quay repository overview
A repository provides a central location for storing a related set of container images. These images can be used to build applications along with their dependencies in a standardized format.
Repositories are organized by namespaces. Each namespace can have multiple repositories. For example, you might have a namespace for your personal projects, one for your company, or one for a specific team within your organization.
With a paid plan, Quay.io provides users with access controls for their repositories. Users can make a repository public, meaning that anyone can pull, or download, the images from it, or users can make it private, restricting access to authorized users or teams.
The free tier of Quay.io does not allow for private repositories. You must upgrade to a paid tier of Quay.io to create a private repository. For more information, see "Information about Quay.io pricing".
There are two ways to create a repository in Quay.io: by pushing an image with the relevant podman command, or by using the Quay.io UI. You can also use the UI to delete a repository.
If you push an image through the command-line interface (CLI) without first creating a repository on the UI, the created repository is set to Private, regardless of the plan you have.
It is recommended that you create a repository on the Quay.io UI before pushing an image. Quay.io checks the plan status and does not allow creation of a private repository if a plan is not active.
5.3.1. Creating a repository by using the UI
Use the following procedure to create a repository using the Quay.io UI.
Procedure
Use the following procedure to create a repository using the v2 UI.
Procedure
- Click Repositories on the navigation pane.
- Click Create Repository.
Select a namespace, for example, quayadmin, and then enter a Repository name, for example,
testrepo.ImportantDo not use the following words in your repository name: *
build*trigger*tagWhen these words are used for repository names, users are unable access the repository, and are unable to permanently delete the repository. Attempting to delete these repositories returns the following error:
Failed to delete repository <repository_name>, HTTP404 - Not Found.Click Create.
Now, your example repository should populate under the Repositories page.
-
Optional. Click Settings
Repository visibility Make private to set the repository to private.
5.3.2. Creating a repository by using Podman
With the proper credentials, you can push an image to a repository using Podman that does not yet exist in your Quay.io instance. Pushing an image refers to the process of uploading a container image from your local system or development environment to a container registry like Quay.io. After pushing an image to your registry, a repository is created. If you push an image through the command-line interface (CLI) without first creating a repository on the UI, the created repository is set to Private.
If you push an image through the command-line interface (CLI) without first creating a repository on the UI, the created repository is set to Private, regardless of the plan you have.
It is recommended that you create a repository on the Quay.io UI before pushing an image. Quay.io checks the plan status and does not allow creation of a private repository if a plan is not active.
Use the following procedure to create an image repository by pushing an image.
Prerequisites
-
You have download and installed the
podmanCLI. - You have logged into your registry.
- You have pulled an image, for example, busybox.
Procedure
Pull a sample page from an example registry. For example:
$ podman pull busybox
Example output
Trying to pull docker.io/library/busybox... Getting image source signatures Copying blob 4c892f00285e done Copying config 22667f5368 done Writing manifest to image destination Storing signatures 22667f53682a2920948d19c7133ab1c9c3f745805c14125859d20cede07f11f9
Tag the image on your local system with the new repository and image name. For example:
$ podman tag docker.io/library/busybox quay.io/quayadmin/busybox:test
Push the image to the registry. Following this step, you can use your browser to see the tagged image in your repository.
$ podman push --tls-verify=false quay.io/quayadmin/busybox:test
Example output
Getting image source signatures Copying blob 6b245f040973 done Copying config 22667f5368 done Writing manifest to image destination Storing signatures
5.4. Access management for Red Hat Quay
As a Quay.io user, you can create your own repositories and make them accessible to other users that are part of your instance. Alternatively, you can create an organization and associate a set of repositories directly to that organization, referred to as an organization repository.
Organization repositories differ from basic repositories in that the organization is intended to set up shared repositories through groups of users. In Quay.io, groups of users can be either Teams, or sets of users with the same permissions, or individual users. You can also allow access to user repositories and organization repositories by creating credentials associated with Robot Accounts. Robot Accounts make it easy for a variety of container clients, such as Docker or Podman, to access your repositories without requiring that the client have a Quay.io user account.
5.5. User settings
The User Settings page provides users a way to set their email address, password, account type, set up desktop notifications, select an avatar, delete an account, adjust the time machine setting, and view billing information.
5.5.2. Adjusting user settings
Use the following procedure to adjust user settings.
Procedure
- To change your email address, select the current email address for Email Address. In the pop-up window, enter a new email address, then, click Change Email. A verification email will be sent before the change is applied.
- To change your password, click Change password. Enter the new password in both boxes, then click Change Password.
- Change the account type by clicking Individual Account, or the option next to Account Type. In some cases, you might have to leave an organization prior to changing the account type.
- Adjust your desktop notifications by clicking the option next to Desktop Notifications. Users can either enable, or disable, this feature.
You can delete an account by clicking Begin deletion. You cannot delete an account if you have an active plan, or if you are a member of an organization where you are the only administrator. You must confirm deletion by entering the namespace.
ImportantDeleting an account is not reversible and will delete all of the account’s data including repositories, created build triggers, and notifications.
- You can set the time machine feature by clicking the drop-box next to Time Machine. This feature dictates the amount of time after a tag is deleted that the tag is accessible in time machine before being garbage collected. After selecting a time, click Save Expiration Time.
5.5.3. Billing information
You can view billing information on the User Settings. In this section, the following information is available:
- Current Plan. This section denotes the current plan Quay.io plan that you are signed up for. It also shows the amount of private repositories you have.
- Invoices. If you are on a paid plan, you can click View Invoices to view a list of invoices.
- Receipts. If you are on a paid plan, you can select whether to have receipts for payment emailed to you, another user, or to opt out of receipts altogether.
