Chapter 1. Creating a repository

To create a repository in the Quay UI, click the + icon in the top right of the header on any Quay page and choose New Repository. Select Container Image Repository on the next page, choose a namespace (only applies to organizations), enter a repository name and then click the Create Repository button. The repository will start out empty unless a Dockerfile is uploaded as well.

First, tag the repository. Here are examples for pushing images to Quay.io or your own Red Hat Quay setup (for example, reg.example.com).

docker tag 0u123imageid quay.io/namespace/repo_name
docker tag 0u123imageid reg.example.com/namespace/repo_name

# docker tag 0u123imageid quay.io/namespace/repo_name
# docker tag 0u123imageid reg.example.com/namespace/repo_name

Then push to the appropriate Quay registry. For example:

docker push quay.io/namespace/repo_name
docker push reg.example.com/namespace/repo_name

# docker push quay.io/namespace/repo_name
# docker push reg.example.com/namespace/repo_name

To create a repository in the Quay UI, click the + icon in the top right of the header on any Quay page and choose New Repository. Select Application Repository on the next page, choose a namespace (only applies to organizations), enter a repository name and then click the Create Repository button. The repository will start out empty.
